Lines are parsed by type and scope signals; duplicates are normalised, technical prefixes are separated from user language, and added, improved, fixed, security, and breaking sections are built.
Release Notes Change Compiler
Parses type, scope, and breaking-change signals from Conventional-Commit-like or plain-language lines, merges duplicates, and produces user-facing Markdown plus a missing-information checklist. It reads no Git history and publishes nothing.
What does this tool do?
Organise raw change lines by user impact into added, improved, fixed, security, and breaking sections.
Release Notes Change Compiler: method and usage
Parses type, scope, and breaking-change signals from Conventional-Commit-like or plain-language lines, merges duplicates, and produces user-facing Markdown plus a missing-information checklist. It reads no Git history and publishes nothing.
one change per line in Conventional-Commit-like or clear natural language, with scope, breaking marker, and user impact where available Confirm the shape first with a small example containing no personal data.
user-facing Markdown release notes, category counts, a duplicate summary, and a missing-context checklist
Practical steps
- Load the example or fill the clearly labelled fields for your scenario.
- Run the check on-device and review metrics, warnings, and recommended corrections together.
- Validate the result in the real target environment and record its assumptions.
checking every item against the actual change, ensuring security notes reveal no sensitive detail, and requiring migration and rollback steps for breaking changes
The compiler sees no Git history, test result, or deployment. Before release, the change owner, support, and security owner must verify the generated notes.
Suitable use cases
- App-store notes
- GitHub release drafts
- Customer change summaries
Worked decision record
Practical scenario: App-store notes. Organise raw change lines by user impact into added, improved, fixed, security, and breaking sections.
Enter `feat(agent)`, `fix(mobile)`, `perf(home)`, `security`, `docs`, and one `BREAKING CHANGE` line; add the same fix twice to confirm duplicate merging.
Acceptance record: checking every item against the actual change, ensuring security notes reveal no sensitive detail, and requiring migration and rollback steps for breaking changes. Keep the result-card metrics and warnings together with the retained example.
Do not publish in this state: The compiler sees no Git history, test result, or deployment. Before release, the change owner, support, and security owner must verify the generated notes.
