Automating CHANGELOG.md Generation with changelog-bot

Описание и применение

Автоматизация создания CHANGELOG.md с помощью changelog-bot экономит время разработчиков, обеспечивает точную документацию и поддерживает AI‑триage зависимостей.

Задача

Maintaining accurate CHANGELOG.md files is time‑consuming and many projects ship releases without notes, forcing developers to manually sift through commits to assess changes and upgrade safety.

Результат

Automated, AI‑enhanced changelog creation saves developer time, ensures consistent documentation, and supports AI‑driven dependency triage.

Рабочий процесс

• Collect commits and PRs between releases
• Categorize changes into Added/Changed/Fixed/Docs/Chore
• Generate a new release section
• Create a Pull Request with the updated file
• (Optional) Send content to an LLM (OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini) for rewrite
• (Optional) Output diagnostics or JSON report
