Skill instructions
Wiki Changelog Generate structured changelogs from git history. Source Repository Resolution (MUST DO FIRST) Before generating any changelog, you MUST determine the source repository context: 1. Check for git remote: Run git remote get-url origin to detect if a remote exists 2. Ask the user: "Is this a local-only repository, or do you have a source repository URL (e.g., GitHub, Azure DevOps)?" - Remote URL provided → store as REPOURL, use linked citations for commit hashes and file references - Local-only → use plain commit hashes and file references 3. Do NOT proceed until source repo context is resolved When to Activate - User asks "what changed recently", "generate a changelog", "summarize commits" - User wants to understand recent development activity Procedure 1.
