What it does
Gen Changelog is an agent skill from UniClipboard/UniClipboard. Generate bilingual, user-facing release changelogs from Git history. Use when the user asks to generate a changelog, prepare release notes, or update docs/changelog for a release and provides a base tag or commit.
Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).
It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes. The repository describes itself as: Real-time clipboard sync across all your devices — local-first, peer-to-peer, and end-to-end encrypted. No account. No cloud dependency. No central server. The licence is AGPL-3.0.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks to generate a changelog
- Prepare release notes
- Update docs/changelog for a release and provides a base tag
Example prompts
- “/gen-changelog”
Workflow steps
11 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Require a base tag or commit. Ask only when it cannot be inferred from the request or current release context.
- Read docs/CHANGELOG_TEMPLATE.md for the required format and rules.
- Read the current version from apps/gui-go/app.json.
- Inspect commits from the base through HEAD with git log ..HEAD --oneline. Read full commits when the subject is insufficient.
- Ignore release-cut commits and internal-only changes unless they have user-visible impact.
- Consolidate entries by pull request and user-visible intent. Never repeat the same pull request in one section.
- Classify entries according to the template. Every entry must end in (#) taken from the squash commit.
- Write English to docs/changelog/{version}.md and natural Chinese to docs/changelog/{version}.zh.md.
- Include only non-empty sections, use today's date, and describe outcomes rather than implementation.
- Do not copy the pinned announcement files; the release process prepends them.
- Validate both files against the template and show the generated content in the result.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit add157e. 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:
git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, 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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Gen Changelog loads about 383 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 185 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
