Generate categorized release notes from any source (GitHub, Linear, Jira, or manual input) with optional publishing.

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

# COG Generate Release Notes Skill

## When to Invoke
- User wants to create release notes for a version, sprint, or cycle
- User says "release notes", "changelog", "what shipped", "write release notes"
- A new version or milestone has been completed
- End of sprint/cycle documentation

## Agent Mode Awareness

**Check `agent_mode` in `00-inbox/MY-PROFILE.md` frontmatter:**
- If `agent_mode: team` — use parallel agents to collect data from all active sources simultaneously
- If `agent_mode: solo` — collect data sequentially from the primary tracker

## Command: `/generate-release-notes`

## Pre-Flight Check

1. **Read `00-inbox/MY-INTEGRATIONS.md`** to determine data sources and publishing options
2. **Read `00-inbox/MY-PROFILE.md`** for active projects
3. **Get current timestamp:** Run `date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M'` using Bash

4. **Ask the user** (if not already provided):
   - What version/release/cycle is this for?
   - What is the date range? (or: which milestone/cycle/sprint?)
   - Which project? (if multiple active)
   - Audience: internal team, customers, or both?

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add huytieu/cog-second-brain/generate-release-notes@sha256:2cbbd5e8035ad29d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260807.b852369, 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.
