Generates structured changelogs and release notes from git history and PRs, classifying breaking changes, features, fixes, performance, docs. Triggers on: "generate changelog", "write release notes", "what changed since", "prepare release", "release notes for", "diff since tag".

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

# Changelog Composer

Transforms raw git history and PR descriptions into polished, audience-appropriate
changelogs. Parses conventional commits, classifies changes by impact category, filters
internal-only modifications, and produces structured release notes with PR links —
following Keep a Changelog conventions.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mathews-tom/armory/changelog-composer@sha256:eb6de9d21c5ffa76

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.1, 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.
