The changelog-automation skill enables AI agents to automatically generate and maintain changelogs for software projects. It parses version control systems like Git, extracts commit messages, and formats them into structured changelog entries following common standards such as Keep a Changelog.
When to use it

- Your team uses Git and wants to automate the process of extracting meaningful changes from commits.
- You're preparing for a software release and want a clean, well-formatted changelog ready for documentation or user communication.
Key capabilities

- Formats output according to Keep a Changelog conventions
- Supports custom templates for changelog entries
Example prompts
