Does it support specific version ranges or dates?

Absolutely. You can specify version tags (e.g., v2.4.0 to v2.5.0), specific date ranges, or simply ask for all changes since the last release.

Can I exclude internal changes from the final changelog?

Yes, the generator is designed to filter out 'noise' such as refactors, unit tests, and internal documentation updates, focusing only on changes that provide value to the end user.

How does the skill handle technical jargon in commits?

The skill uses Claude's advanced natural language processing to interpret the intent behind technical commit messages and rewrites them into clear, benefit-oriented language that non-technical users can understand.

Can I customize the output format?

Yes, you can point the skill toward an existing CHANGELOG_STYLE.md file or provide specific instructions to match your brand's unique voice and formatting preferences.
