Discord Release Notes
Generate a condensed Discord-friendly version of the release notes. The user will provide the version (e.g. v0.1.0).
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS
Step 1: Find the full release notes
Look for the full release notes at /Users/tarik/Desktop/irdashies-demos/release-<version>.md. If they don't exist, tell the user to run /release-notes first.
Step 2: Look up Discord handles
Check the memory file at /Users/tarik/.claude/projects/-Users-tarik-projects-irdashies/memory/reference_discord_handles.md to map GitHub usernames to Discord display names. If any contributors are missing from the mapping, ask the user for their Discord handles before proceeding.
Step 3: Write the condensed post
Write to /Users/tarik/Desktop/irdashies-demos/release-<version>-discord.md.
Hard limit: 2000 characters
Check the character count with wc -m after writing. If over 2000, trim until it fits.

Rules
- User-facing language — no code, no function names, no technical jargon
- Condense aggressively — combine related items, use short phrases with em-dashes
- Order contributors by number of PRs in the release, most first. Use Discord display names, not GitHub handles. Don't include yourself (tarik) in the thanks
- Start with the most impactful features — new widgets and major overhauls first, smaller enhancements after
- Use all available space — if you're well under 2000 characters, add back detail that was cut. Don't leave room on the table unnecessarily
- Tracks and logos get their own one-liner sections at the bottom
- Always end with the full release notes link
- Skip dev-only fixes (hot reload, branch refresh) — Discord audience is end users
Step 4: Verify and open
Check character count is under 2000, then open in VS Code with code <path>.
