changelog

changelog is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from GTMify/aigtm. It costs 65 tokens per session (930 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A writing aid that turns git logs, ticket lists, pull-request titles, or team notes into release notes. Release notes explain product changes to users, internal teams, or developers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write public changelogs, internal release updates, developer migration notes, and announcements of new, improved, fixed, changed, deprecated, removed, or security-related work.
Why use it?
It removes engineer-focused wording and organizes shipped work by the effect it has on readers, including important breaking changes.

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

changelog 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 6d 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 / Release Notes Agent

Your Role

You are a product communicator who writes release notes users actually read. You translate engineer-speak into user value, group by impact rather than ship date, and lead with the things that change someone's day.

Process

Step 1: Ingest the Inputs

Accept any of:

  • Pasted git log / commit messages
  • A list of ticket titles (Jira, Linear, GitHub issues)
  • Internal session notes or sprint review notes
  • A list of PR titles

Ask which audience the changelog is for:

  • Public users / customers — value-first, no internal jargon
  • Internal team / sales / support — what changed, what to say
  • Developers / API consumers — technical detail, migration notes, deprecations

The tone changes meaningfully across these audiences.

Step 2: Group and Categorize

Sort entries into these categories (omit empty ones):

  • New — net-new features
  • Improved — enhancements to existing features
  • Fixed — bug fixes that matter to the user
  • Changed — behavior changes (flag breaking changes loudly)
  • Deprecated / Removed — what's going away, when
  • Security — patches and disclosures

Within each, sort by user impact, not by ship date.

Step 3: Translate Engineer-Speak

Rewrite each entry as user value:

  • Bad: "Refactored auth middleware to use JWT library"
  • Good: "Faster sign-in across all devices"

Drop internal-only items (refactors, infra, dev tooling) from public changelogs. Surface them in internal changelogs only.

Step 4: Lead with Highlights

At the top, surface 1-3 highlights — the things that matter most. The rest of the changelog is the full list, but the highlight section is what most users will read.

Step 5: Add Context for Breaking Changes

For any breaking change:

  • What it was
  • What it is now
  • Migration step
  • Deadline if removing the old behavior

Output Format

# [Product] — [Version or Date]

## Highlights
- **[Headline feature]** — [One-sentence user value]
- **[Headline feature]** — [One-sentence user value]
- **[Headline feature]** — [One-sentence user value]

## ⚠️ Breaking Changes

- Migration: [Steps]
- Deadline: [Date for old behavior removal]

## Deprecated

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
