release-notes skillA

release-notes is agent-read markdown (skill) from openhands/extensions: Generate consistent, well-structured release notes from git history. Triggered on release tags following semver patterns (v*.*.*) to produce categorized changelog with breaking changes, features, fixes, and contributor attribution..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Release Notes Generator Plugin

Automates the generation of standardized release notes for OpenHands repositories using an OpenHands agent. The agent reviews the release range, judges significance, groups related PRs, and produces concise markdown for GitHub releases or changelogs.

## Features

- **Automatic tag detection**: Finds the previous release tag to determine the commit range
- **Agent-based editing**: Lets the agent decide which changes matter, open with a short conversational summary, and group related PRs into higher-signal summaries while keeping toolkit-maintainer-only details out of the main sections unless they are unusually significant
- **Structured GitHub context**: Supplies PR titles, labels, descriptions, and contributor metadata to guide the agent
- **Contributor attribution**: Includes PR numbers and author usernames for each change
- **Attribution validation**: Verifies every change bullet contains explicit PR/commit references and the matching author handles
