Release Notes Generator

Generate clear, professional release notes from git commits, PRs, or a plain list of changes. Outputs formatted changelogs your users actually want to read.

Usage

Tell the agent what changed — paste commits, PR titles, or describe features in plain language. It produces structured release notes.

Input Options

  1. Git diff/log — paste git log --oneline v1.2.0..v1.3.0 output
  2. PR list — paste merged PR titles
  3. Plain description — "We added dark mode, fixed the login bug, and dropped Python 3.7 support"

Output Format

## v1.3.0 — 2026-02-13

### Added
- Dark mode across all pages (#142)

### Fixed
- Login redirect loop on Safari (#138)

### Breaking Changes
- Dropped Python 3.7 support — minimum is now 3.9

### Migration Guide
- Update your CI to use Python 3.9+ images

Behavior

  • Group changes by type: Added, Changed, Fixed, Deprecated, Removed, Security, Breaking Changes
  • Follow Keep a Changelog conventions
  • Include migration guides for breaking changes
  • Write for end users, not engineers (unless told otherwise)
  • Strip internal/refactor commits unless asked to include them
  • Add PR/issue numbers when available
  • Keep it scannable — bullet points, not paragraphs

Audience Toggle

Say "internal" for eng-focused notes or "external" for customer-facing notes. Default is external.

Multiple Formats

Ask for:

  • Changelog — append-friendly CHANGELOG.md format
  • Email — ready to paste into a release email
  • Slack — compact format for #releases channel
  • GitHub Release — markdown for GitHub release page
  • Tweet thread — highlight reel for social

Tips

  • Run after every sprint or before every deploy
  • Pair with a CI step that dumps git log into a file
  • Keep a running CHANGELOG.md and append each release
