Update the Unreleased section of CHANGELOG.md based on current changes. No-op if CHANGELOG.md does not exist. Use when the user asks to "update changelog", "add to changelog", "update the changelog", "changelog entry", "add changelog entry", or "log this change".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Update Changelog

Update the Unreleased section of the changelog based on the current changes.

## Step 1: Run `/changelog-rules` Skill

Run the `/changelog-rules` skill to load shared changelog conventions.

## Step 2: Check for Changelog

Use `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` to find the repository root. Look for the changelog file per `/changelog-rules`. If it does not exist, skip this skill. Do not create it.

## Step 3: Analyze the Changes

Determine what changed:

- Read `git diff --cached` for staged changes
- If nothing is staged, read `git diff` for unstaged changes
- Use the conversation context for the intent behind the changes

## Step 4: Assess Changelog-Worthiness

Apply the `/changelog-rules` changelog-worthiness and net-delta criteria. Skip fixes to code introduced by the same branch or PR.

If no changes are changelog-worthy, skip this skill.

## Step 5: Check Existing Unreleased Entries

Read the current Unreleased section of the changelog. Look for entries that relate to the same feature or fix. This prevents duplicates across multiple commits for the same body of work.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tobihagemann/turbo/update-changelog@sha256:1a6e2e5a58167164

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260808.1a3d4b0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
