Goal: Convert verified changes into accurate user-facing and internal release notes.

## Steps

1. Gather inputs:
   - Merged commits or diff
   - PR description
   - Verification report
   - Deployment report
   - Product or store constraints
2. Triage impact:
   - User-facing change
   - Bug fix
   - Security or privacy note
   - Operational change
   - No-user-impact internal change
3. Draft notes:
   - Use plain language and business outcomes.
   - Keep sensitive security details high-level.
   - Respect platform character limits.
4. Verify:
   - Cross-check notes against shipped scope.
   - Remove unshipped claims.
   - Route process lessons to `retro-learn`.
