name: release-notes
description: "Authoritative protocol for authoring release notes as an EPIC with mining-driven iterations — scope derivation (the tracker lags shipped reality), heavy per-arc Memory-Core mining, per-claim V-B-A, the precedent-SET quality bar — majors AND minors, v13.0.0 + v12.1.0 + v11.22-24 (hero chapters, named case studies with real timelines, War Stories, honest bounds, never downplay a release), and the publish.mjs flat-root staging lifecycle. Triggers: a release window opens, release notes are requested/authored/iterated, or cut-prep begins (staging file, atomic-hash line, orphan-guard interplay)."

# Release Notes Skill
If you are authoring, iterating, reviewing, or cut-preparing release notes, you MUST immediately use the `view_file` tool to read and strictly adhere to `.agents/skills/release-notes/references/release-notes-workflow.md` before writing, judging, or moving any notes content.
