What it does

Release Notes is an agent skill from sesori-ai/sesori_apps_monorepo. Generate a polished, user-facing release-notes markdown file for a requested release (e.g. "do this for v1.1.0"). By default it starts from the existing auto-generated GitHub release notes and post-processes them (re-orders by importance, merges multi-PR efforts, highlights the big items, drops noise) while preserving the "All PRs merged" and "New Contributors" sections verbatim. Alternatively, when the user explicitly says NOT to use the existing notes, it analyzes all commits/PRs merged since the previous…

Its SKILL.md is about 3.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: opencode

It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes. It works with GitHub and Android. The repository describes itself as: Sesori iOS/Android app and the Sesori Bridge CLI — drive Claude, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Pi, OMP, Hermes coding sessions from your phone.

When your agent uses it

  • Explicitly says NOT to use the existing notes
  • It analyzes all commits/PRs merged since the previous release tag and builds the notes from scratch

Example prompts

  • “do this for v1.1.0”
  • “All PRs merged”
  • “New Contributors”
  • “/release-notes”

Requirements

  • A credential in GITHUB_TOKEN
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): opencode

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Parse the generated ### App, ### Bridge, ### All PRs merged, and ## New Contributors sections (same as Step A2).
  2. Apply the Post-Processing Rules to the App/Bridge entries (same as Step A3).
  3. Write RELEASE_NOTES_.md using the Output Format, copying the All PRs merged and New Contributors sections verbatim from the generated…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 55c7d4c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • dart

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • GITHUB_TOKEN
    • GH_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    opencode

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Release Notes loads about 3.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 165 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,784 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~165
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,784 words (~3,586 tokens).

“Generates a curated, user-facing release-notes markdown file for a given release version. The output mirrors the hand-edited style the maintainer prefers: a top Highlights block, then per-target App / Bridge sections (subdivided into New / Improved / Fixed / Other)…”
