kostja94/changelog-page-generator

When the user wants to create, optimize, or structure a changelog or release notes page. Also use when the user mentions "changelog," "release notes," "what's new," "updates," "product updates," "version history," or "changelog.yourdomain.com." For sitewide page planning, use website-structure.

The instruction itself

9 sections, as written by the author

Pages: Changelog

Guides changelog and release notes pages. Typically at changelog.* subdomain or /changelog. Builds trust, reduces support, increases feature adoption.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Initial Assessment

Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read it for product and release cadence.

Identify:

  • Product type: SaaS, API, mobile app, etc.
  • Audience: End users, developers, both
  • Release cadence: Weekly, monthly, continuous
  • Format: Timeline, version-based, category (New, Improved, Fixed)

Changelog Structure

| Section | Purpose |

|---------|---------|

| Entry | Date, version, title |

| Category | New, Improved, Fixed, Deprecated (optional) |

| Description | What changed, why it matters |

| Link | To docs, blog, or in-app |

| Media | Screenshots, GIFs, videos (optional) |

Best Practices

Content

  • User benefit first: "You can now X" not "We added X"
  • Concrete: Specific features, not vague "improvements"
  • Scannable: Headlines, bullets, tags
  • Searchable: If many entries, add search/filter

Organization

  • Reverse chronological: Newest first
  • Grouping: By version or date range
  • Tags: Feature area, product module (optional)
  • RSS/email: Notify subscribers of updates

Placement

  • Subdomain: changelog.yourdomain.com
  • Path: /changelog, /updates, /releases
  • Embed: Widget in app or docs sidebar
  • Link from: Footer, docs, in-app

Output Format

  • Structure (layout, entry format)
  • Entry template (fields, tone)
  • Navigation (filters, search)
  • SEO (index, metadata)
  • Integration (embed, RSS, email)
  • docs-page-generator: Changelog linked from docs
  • docs-page-generator: API changelog for developers; docs includes API Reference
  • blog-page-generator: Major releases may have blog posts
  • top-banner-generator: Announce major updates on main site

How to use it

Copy the folder

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
