Changelog Writing

Use this skill when a completed feature branch needs a changelog entry.

Workflow

1. Understand the change set.
2. Study recent changelog patterns in ../langfuse-docs/pages/changelog.
3. Find related documentation links in ../langfuse-docs/pages.
4. Draft a user-focused changelog entry.
5. Recommend whether an image or screenshot should be added.

What To Gather

• The branch diff relative to main
• The Linear issue, if the branch name includes an lfe-XXXX identifier
• The affected product areas
• Relevant docs pages to link or create

Writing Rules

• Write for users, not internal implementation detail
• Never mention internal ticket ids or Linear URLs in the entry, even though step 2 gathers the Linear issue for context
• Prefer second person: "you can now..."
• Focus on what changed, why it matters, and how to use it
• Match the structure and tone of recent changelog posts
• Keep technical detail only where it improves user understanding

Output Format

Provide:

1. A short summary of what changed
2. The complete changelog post content
3. Whether an image should be added and what it should show
4. Any docs pages that should be linked or created

Reference Files

• Changelog destination: ../langfuse-docs/pages/changelog
• Recent changelog examples: inspect 3-5 recent files in that directory
• Existing docs: ../langfuse-docs/pages
