devops/changelog-generation

devops/changelog-generation is a skill for Claude Code from echoVic/boss-skill. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,110 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for creating a CHANGELOG, a document that records what changed in each software release. It reads Git commit history and release-pipeline reports, then groups changes using common commit and changelog conventions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after deployment, before a release, or when preparing notes for users and teammates. It can summarize new features, fixes, performance work, refactoring, documentation, and breaking changes.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of collecting release changes and turning technical commits into an organized summary. It also helps keep release notes consistent between versions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

devops/changelog-generation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

CHANGELOG 自动生成

适用场景

在部署成功完成后自动生成或追加 CHANGELOG,记录本次发布的所有变更。适用于:

  • 部署完成后的发布记录
  • 版本发布前的变更汇总
  • 对外发布说明的自动生成

核心方法

步骤 1:信息收集

  1. Git 历史解析

    # 获取从上次 tag 到 HEAD 的所有提交
    git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || git rev-list --max-parents=0 HEAD)..HEAD --pretty=format:"%H|%s|%an|%ai"
    
    • 如果没有 tag,取最近 50 条提交
    • 解析 Conventional Commits 格式:type(scope): description
  2. Pipeline 产物读取

    • .boss/<feature>/prd.md → 功能描述和用户价值
    • .boss/<feature>/deploy-report.md → 部署环境和版本信息
    • .boss/<feature>/tasks.md → 完成的任务列表
  3. 版本号确定

    • 优先使用 package.json 中的 version
    • 其次使用最新 git tag
    • 如无法确定,使用日期格式 YYYY.MM.DD

步骤 2:变更分类

按 Conventional Commits 规范分类:

类型 CHANGELOG 分类 说明
feat Added 新增功能
fix Fixed 修复问题
perf Performance 性能优化
refactor Changed 重构(非功能变更)
docs Documentation 文档更新
style (不记录) 代码格式
test (不记录) 测试相关
chore (不记录) 构建/工具变更
BREAKING CHANGE ⚠️ Breaking Changes 破坏性变更(始终置顶)

对于非 Conventional Commits 格式的提交:

  • 根据关键词推断分类(add/new → Added, fix/bug → Fixed, update/change → Changed)
  • 无法分类的归入 Changed

步骤 3:内容生成

格式规范(Keep a Changelog)
## [版本号] - YYYY-MM-DD

### ⚠️ Breaking Changes
- 破坏性变更描述 ([commit-hash])

### Added
- 新功能描述(来自 PRD 的用户价值说明) ([commit-hash])

### Changed
- 变更描述 ([commit-hash])

### Fixed
- 修复描述 ([commit-hash])

### Performance
- 优化描述 ([commit-hash])
生成规则
  1. 每条记录包含:清晰描述 + commit short hash 引用
  2. 如有 PRD,用 PRD 中的功能描述替代 commit message(更面向用户)
  3. Breaking Changes 始终置顶并用 ⚠️ 标记
  4. 同一 scope 的多条提交合并为一条记录
  5. 最多展示 20 条变更,超出部分汇总为 "及其他 N 项更新"

步骤 4:输出写入

两种输出模式:

  1. 产物模式(默认):写入 .boss/<feature>/changelog.md
  2. 追加模式:如项目根目录已有 CHANGELOG.md,将新版本内容追加到文件顶部(在 # Changelog 标题之后)

追加逻辑:

读取现有 CHANGELOG.md
→ 找到第一个 ## [version] 行
→ 在其前面插入新版本内容
→ 写回文件

如果项目无 CHANGELOG.md,则创建包含标准头部的新文件:

# Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/).

## [版本号] - 日期

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
