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-automation 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 12d 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.

What it actually says

Changelog Automation

Patterns and tools for automating changelog generation, release notes, and version management following industry standards.

Use this skill when

  • Setting up automated changelog generation
  • Implementing conventional commits
  • Creating release note workflows
  • Standardizing commit message formats
  • Managing semantic versioning

Do not use this skill when

  • The project has no release process or versioning
  • You only need a one-time manual release note
  • Commit history is unavailable or unreliable

Instructions

  • Select a changelog format and versioning strategy.
  • Enforce commit conventions or labeling rules.
  • Configure tooling to generate and publish notes.
  • Review output for accuracy, completeness, and wording.
  • If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

Safety

  • Avoid exposing secrets or internal-only details in release notes.

Resources

  • resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns, templates, and examples.

What ships with it

1 file 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.
