Creates user-facing release notes that communicate new features, improvements, and fixes in clear, benefit-focused language. Use when shipping updates to communicate changes to users, customers, or stakeholders.

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.

# Release Notes

Release notes communicate product changes to users in a way that highlights value and builds excitement. Unlike changelogs (which document what changed technically), release notes translate changes into user benefits. Good release notes help users discover new capabilities, understand improvements, and trust that issues are being addressed.

## When to Use

- Shipping product updates to customers
- Communicating changes to internal stakeholders
- Preparing app store update descriptions
- Writing customer-facing email announcements
- Documenting changes for support and sales teams

## When NOT to Use

- You are updating internal stakeholders on progress rather than announcing shipped changes -> use `foundation-stakeholder-update`
- You need the technical record of changes for developers -> keep the engineering changelog; this skill translates changes into user benefits
- You are coordinating launch readiness rather than communicating the ship -> use `deliver-launch-checklist`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add product-on-purpose/pm-skills/deliver-release-notes@sha256:63d3337284e8e2e6

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.1.0, 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.
