Changelog

Changelog

Record what shipped as it lands. Do not scrape commits at release time, write the entry now while the change is fresh.

How

1. Open root CHANGELOG.md.

2. Add one bullet under ## [Unreleased], in the right subhead:

   • Added — new features the user can see/use.
   • Changed — behavior changes to existing features.
   • Fixed — bug fixes.

3. Write it for a user reading release notes, not as a commit message:

   • One line, present tense.
   • Describe the effect, not the implementation or file paths.
   • Skip internal-only churn (refactors, deps, CI, tests) unless it changes what the user experiences.

4. Link the PR for every entry (not the issue).

5. Credit the contributor. Every entry from someone other than bholmesdev gets a thank you, including when you are that contributor writing your own entry.

   Find the handle:

   • PR already open: gh pr view --json author --jq .author.login.
   • No PR yet: gh api user --jq .login, the account that will open it.

   Then, unless the handle is bholmesdev, put one of these before the link:

   • Thanks [@handle](https://github.com/handle)! for their own work.
   • Thanks [@handle](https://github.com/handle) for the suggestion! when bholmesdev landed someone else's issue.

Create a subhead only if it has at least one entry. Leave the empty scaffold subheads as-is for the next entry.

Entries stay under Unreleased until /release promotes them to a version heading. See .agents/skills/release.
