Dev & CodingBeginner1,899573AI score 9/10Last updated: Jul 26, 2026

What it does

  • Scans git commits for a date range or between version tags.
  • Groups them into features, improvements, fixes, breaking changes and security items.
  • Rewrites developer shorthand into language customers actually understand.
  • Filters out internal noise such as refactors, tests and chores.
  • Honors your own style guide (e.g. CHANGELOG_STYLE.md) for consistent brand voice.

Who it's for

  • Developers and tech leads who hand-write release notes every ship cycle.
  • PMs and product marketers publishing weekly or monthly update digests.
  • Teams writing app store update copy or GitHub release notes repeatedly.

Examples

  1. "Create a changelog from commits since last release" → structured markdown draft ready for CHANGELOG.md.
  2. "Generate a changelog for commits between March 1 and March 15" → newsletter-ready weekly summary.
  3. "Create release notes for v2.5.0 using my CHANGELOG_STYLE.md guidelines" → notes that match house style.

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
