changelog-release is a skill for Claude Code from phuonghx/aim-cli. It costs 84 tokens per session (1,393 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release helper that maintains a human-readable CHANGELOG.md and creates versioned releases. It uses Semantic Versioning, where major, minor, and patch numbers describe the size of a release.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when turning Conventional Commits into a release, moving entries from Unreleased into a dated version, tagging that version, and drafting its notes.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of sorting commit history, choosing a version number, updating the changelog, and preparing release notes.

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-release 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 1mo 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.

The Six Categories

Category Use for
Added New features
Changed Changes to existing behavior
Deprecated Soon-to-be-removed features (warn before Removed)
Removed Features taken out this release
Fixed Bug fixes
Security Vulnerability fixes — always call out

Write entries for humans: describe the user-visible effect, not the diff. Omit empty categories. Link issues/PRs.


Deriving the Version Bump

Read commit subjects since the last tag and map Conventional Commits → SemVer:

Commit signal Bump Example
BREAKING CHANGE: footer or feat!: / fix!: MAJOR X 1.4.0 → 2.0.0
feat: MINOR Y 1.4.0 → 1.5.0
fix: / perf: PATCH Z 1.4.0 → 1.4.1
docs: chore: refactor: test: ci: style: none (unless paired with above) —

The highest signal wins: one feat! makes the whole release MAJOR.

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.
