Maintains CHANGELOG.md in Keep a Changelog form. Use when the user asks to start a changelog, add or record an entry, update the changelog, bump a version, cut a release, or release a version. Skip when the task is only to commit, amend, tag, or publish, or when it is to format or lint Markdown, to write architecture or behavior docs, to edit agent instructions for a reason other than the changelog, or to write a skill.

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

# Make changelog

[Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/) 1.1.0. The **scheme** is the project's version convention. None → [SemVer](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).

**Invariants.** Notes sit under `[Unreleased]` until a bump. Sections are Added, Changed, Deprecated, Removed, Fixed, Security. Write a section only when it has a bullet. Newest release first. Dates are `YYYY-MM-DD`. A bump runs only when the user explicitly asks.

## Inputs

- `request` (text, required): the message that selects the branch. A version token in it (`1.2.3`, `2026.09.30`) is the version to write.
- `changes` (diff or stated list, required on update): what this task changed. Older commits count only when the request asks to catch up.
- `changelog` (file, optional): the file the repo already uses. None → root `CHANGELOG.md`.

When update has no diff and no stated changes, stop and ask what to record. Until that answer arrives, write no bullet.

A question uses the harness question tool, or chat when that tool is missing. Wait. The next message resumes the branch at that step.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add diegoos/skills/make-changelog@sha256:130ffff65f17ed28

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.0, 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.
