Range or release: $ARGUMENTS
1. Collect what changed
Work out the range: the argument if given (v1.4.0, v1.3.0..v1.4.0, "last 2 weeks"), else from
the latest tag to HEAD, else the last 30 days.
- Tags:
git tag --sort=-creatordate | head -5 - Commits:
git log --no-merges --pretty='%s' <from>..<to> - Merged pull requests, when the GitHub CLI is available:
gh pr list --state merged --search "merged:>=<date>" --json number,title,labels --limit 50 - A
CHANGELOG.mdor release notes in the repo beat both. Prefer them when they cover the range.
2. Write the lines
The changelog archetype holds a version and a short list of changes. Video copy is not a commit log:
- Pick the 3–5 changes a user would notice. Drop chores, refactors, dependency bumps and CI.
- One line each, sentence case, under about 40 characters, starting with what the user gets ("Vertical video for Shorts and Reels", not "feat(render): add 9:16 preset").
- Group into New / Improved / Fixed only when there are enough lines to need it.
If you collected the lines from the repo, show the version and the lines and wait for edits before
building. If the user gave the changes themselves, tidy the wording and go straight on: the
storyboard the video skill shows next is where they confirm it, so don't stop twice.
3. Build
Run the video skill with the brief "changelog video for ", the archetype
changelog, and the approved lines as content. It plans the storyboard, installs, composes, checks the
render and offers the Remocn Studio hand-off.
