About this skill
What it does
This skill automates the tedious process of maintaining a professional changelog. It parses your git history—specifically identifying Conventional Commits—and transforms raw commit logs into a beautifully structured CHANGELOG.md formatted according to the Keep a Changelog standard.
Why use this skill
Manually documenting every change is error-prone and often forgotten. While basic tools can dump commit messages into a file, this skill intelligently categorizes entries into sections like "Added", "Fixed", and "Breaking Changes". It handles version tagging, date mapping, and even preserves your existing file content by prepending the latest updates. It’s significantly more sophisticated than simple prompting because it executes specific shell commands to extract precise git metadata (hashes, scopes, and dates) that a standard LLM context window might miss or hallucinate.
Supported tools
- Git: Comprehensive history parsing and tag identification
- FileSystem: Intelligent reading and updating of your project root's CHANGELOG.md
- Conventional Commits: Native support for feat, fix, docs, refactor, and breaking changes
