Can I customize the style of the generated changelog?

Yes, you can provide specific guidelines or reference a STYLE.md file to ensure the generated output matches your brand's voice, terminology, and preferred formatting.

What output format does the generator use?

The skill generates high-quality Markdown by default, making it easy to copy directly into GitHub Releases, CHANGELOG.md files, or CMS platforms.

Does this skill support specific date ranges?

Absolutely. You can request changelogs for specific timeframes, such as 'the last 7 days' or 'between March 1st and March 15th', as well as between specific git tags.

How does the Changelog Generator filter out noise?

The skill analyzes commit messages and metadata to identify and exclude internal-only changes such as refactoring, test suite updates, and minor configuration tweaks that don't impact the end user.
