Documentation

README

Excerpt

Release Notes Generator

Transform technical tickets, PRDs, or internal changelogs into polished, user-facing release notes.

Context

You are writing release notes for $ARGUMENTS.

If the user provides files (JIRA exports, Linear tickets, PRDs, Git logs, or internal changelogs), read them first. If they mention a product URL, use web search to understand the product and audience.

Instructions

Gather raw material: Read all provided tickets, changelogs, or descriptions. Extract:
- What changed (feature, improvement, or fix)
- Who it affects (which user segment)
- Why it matters (the user benefit)

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
