Remove references to non-existent resource files (references/, assets/, scripts/, examples/) from 115 skill SKILL.md files. These sections pointed to directories and files that were never created, causing confusion when users install skills. Also fix broken Code of Conduct links in issue templates to use absolute GitHub URLs instead of relative paths that 404.

# Changelog Automation
|
|
|
|
Patterns and tools for automating changelog generation, release notes, and version management following industry standards.
|
|
|
|
## When to Use This Skill
|
|
|
|
- Setting up automated changelog generation
|
|
- Implementing Conventional Commits
|
|
- Creating release note workflows
|
|
- Standardizing commit message formats
|
|
- Generating GitHub/GitLab release notes
|
|
- Managing semantic versioning
|
|
|
|
## Core Concepts
|
|
|
|
### 1. Keep a Changelog Format
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
# Changelog
|
|
|
|
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
|
|
|
|
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
|
|
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
|
|
|
|
## [Unreleased]

|
|
[1.2.0]: https://github.com/user/repo/compare/v1.1.0...v1.2.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Conventional Commits
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<type>[optional scope]: <description>
|
|
|
|
[optional body]
|
|
|
|
[optional footer(s)]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Type | Description | Changelog Section |
|
|
| ---------- | ---------------- | ------------------ |
|
|
| `feat` | New feature | Added |
|
|
| `fix` | Bug fix | Fixed |
|
|
| `docs` | Documentation | (usually excluded) |
|
|
| `style` | Formatting | (usually excluded) |
|
|
| `refactor` | Code restructure | Changed |
|
|

|
|
| `revert` | Revert commit | Removed |
|
|
|
|
### 3. Semantic Versioning
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
|
|
|
|
MAJOR: Breaking changes (feat! or BREAKING CHANGE)
|
|
MINOR: New features (feat)
|
|
PATCH: Bug fixes (fix)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Implementation
|
|
|
|
### Method 1: Conventional Changelog (Node.js)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Install tools
|
|
npm install -D @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional
|
|
npm install -D husky
|
|
npm install -D standard-version
|
|
# or
|
|
npm install -D semantic-release
|
|
|
|
# Setup commitlint
|
|
cat > commitlint.config.js << 'EOF'
|
|
module.exports = {
|
|
extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional'],
|
|
rules: {
|
|
'type-enum': [
|
|
2,
|
|
'always',
|
|
[
|
|
'feat',
|
|
'fix',
|
|
'docs',
|
|
'style',
|
|
'refactor',
|
|
'perf',
|
|
'test',
|
|
'chore',
|
|
'ci',
|
|
'build',
|
|
'revert',
|
|
],
|
|
],
|
|
'subject-case': [2, 'never', ['start-case', 'pascal-case', 'upper-case']],
|
|
'subject-max-length': [2, 'always', 72],
|
|
},
|
|
};
|
|
EOF
|
|
|
|
# Setup husky
|
|
npx husky init
|
|
echo "npx --no -- commitlint --edit \$1" > .husky/commit-msg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Method 2: standard-version Configuration
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// .versionrc.js
|
|
module.exports = {
|
|
types: [
|
|
{ type: "feat", section: "Features" },
|
|
{ type: "fix", section: "Bug Fixes" },
|
|
{ type: "perf", section: "Performance Improvements" },
|
|
{ type: "revert", section: "Reverts" },
|
|
{ type: "docs", section: "Documentation", hidden: true },

|
commitUrlFormat: "{{host}}/{{owner}}/{{repository}}/commit/{{hash}}",
|
|
compareUrlFormat:
|
|
"{{host}}/{{owner}}/{{repository}}/compare/{{previousTag}}...{{currentTag}}",
|
|
issueUrlFormat: "{{host}}/{{owner}}/{{repository}}/issues/{{id}}",
|
|
userUrlFormat: "{{host}}/{{user}}",
|
|
releaseCommitMessageFormat: "chore(release): {{currentTag}}",
|
|
scripts: {
|
|
prebump: 'echo "Running prebump"',
|
|
postbump: 'echo "Running postbump"',
|
|
prechangelog: 'echo "Running prechangelog"',
|
|
postchangelog: 'echo "Running postchangelog"',
|
|
},
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
// package.json scripts
|
|
{
|
|
"scripts": {
|
|
"release": "standard-version",
|
|
"release:minor": "standard-version --release-as minor",
|
|
"release:major": "standard-version --release-as major",
|
|
"release:patch": "standard-version --release-as patch",
|
|
"release:dry": "standard-version --dry-run"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Method 3: semantic-release (Full Automation)
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// release.config.js
|
|
module.exports = {
|
|
branches: [
|
|
"main",
|
|
{ name: "beta", prerelease: true },
|
|
{ name: "alpha", prerelease: true },

|
],

|
|
},
|
|
],
|
|

|
|

|
|
```

|
No special steps required. Standard deployment process applies.
|
|
|
|
## Known Issues
|
|
|
|
- Dark mode may flicker on initial load (fix scheduled for v2.1.1)
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies Updated
|
|
|
|
| Package | From | To | Reason |
|
|
| ------- | ------- | ------- | ------------------------ |
|
|
| react | 18.2.0 | 18.3.0 | Performance improvements |
|
|

|
## Commit Message Examples
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Feature with scope
|
|
feat(auth): add OAuth2 support for Google login
|
|
|
|
# Bug fix with issue reference
|
|
fix(checkout): resolve race condition in payment processing
|
|
|
|
Closes #123
|
|
|
|
# Breaking change
|
|
feat(api)!: change user endpoint response format
|
|
|
|
BREAKING CHANGE: The user endpoint now returns `userId` instead of `id`.
|
|
Migration guide: Update all API consumers to use the new field name.
|
|
|
|
# Multiple paragraphs
|
|
fix(database): handle connection timeouts gracefully
|
|
|
|
Previously, connection timeouts would cause the entire request to fail
|
|
without retry. This change implements exponential backoff with up to
|
|
3 retries before failing.
|
|
|
|
The timeout threshold has been increased from 5s to 10s based on p99
|
|
latency analysis.
|
|
|
|
Fixes #456

## Best Practices
|
|
|
|
### Do's
|
|
|
|
- **Follow Conventional Commits** - Enables automation
|
|
- **Write clear messages** - Future you will thank you
|
|
- **Reference issues** - Link commits to tickets
|
|
- **Use scopes consistently** - Define team conventions
|
|
- **Automate releases** - Reduce manual errors
|
|
|
|
### Don'ts
|
|
|
|
- **Don't mix changes** - One logical change per commit
|
|
- **Don't skip validation** - Use commitlint
|
|
- **Don't manual edit** - Generated changelogs only
|
|
- **Don't forget breaking changes** - Mark with `!` or footer
|
|
- **Don't ignore CI** - Validate commits in pipeline
|
