Release Notes from PRs

You shipped. Nobody knows what changed.

Release Notes from PRs is an OpenClaw skill that fetches merged PRs in any date or tag range, categorizes each one as Feature/Fix/Chore/Refactor/Breaking using Conventional Commit detection and label heuristics, rewrites commit-speak into plain English, and renders a Keep-a-Changelog block plus a Slack/Twitter-ready summary — so you can stop skipping changelogs.

Three scripts, zero SaaS subscriptions, runs entirely from your terminal.

What it does

• Fetch merged PRs in a date or tag range using the gh CLI
• Auto-categorize by type using Conventional Commits, labels, and keyword fallbacks
• Detect and call out breaking changes separately before any other content
• Render Keep-a-Changelog markdown with linked PR numbers and author attribution
• Output a ≤280-character Slack/Twitter summary alongside the full changelog

What's in the package

All files listed below are bundled as fenced code blocks inside SKILL.md — there's no separate folder to install. Copy each code block into its own file using the path shown above it.

• SKILL.md — the full release notes workflow your agent follows.
• scripts/fetch_prs.sh — fetches merged PRs via gh CLI into a JSON file.
• scripts/categorize_prs.py — categorizes each PR by type using Conventional Commits, labels, and keywords.
• scripts/render_notes.py — renders Keep-a-Changelog markdown and a short summary.
• scripts/examples/ — sample prs.json, categorized.json, and a rendered CHANGELOG.md to verify the pipeline works.

How it ships

Drop SKILL.md into ~/.openclaw/skills/release-notes-from-prs/. Restart OpenClaw. Run /release-notes-from-prs or describe what you need — your agent picks it up.
