Does it work with non-JavaScript projects?

Absolutely. While it covers Node.js tools like standard-version, it also includes configurations for Rust-based tools like git-cliff and Python-based tools like commitizen.

What documentation formats does this skill support?

It primarily follows the 'Keep a Changelog' format and supports the Semantic Versioning (SemVer) 2.0.0 standard for version management.

How does this skill handle breaking changes?

It identifies breaking changes through Conventional Commit patterns (like 'feat!' or 'BREAKING CHANGE' footers) to trigger automatic Major version bumps according to SemVer.

Can I use this with GitHub Actions?

Yes, the skill provides specific patterns and YAML configurations for integrating changelog automation directly into GitHub Actions and other CI/CD pipelines.
