SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It eliminates the manual, developer-to-player translation work of turning internal change logs and sprint evidence into clear patch notes players can actually read.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Versioned patch note generation: Creates patch notes for a specific release version using internal changelog files, docs entries, git history, sprint retrospectives, balance docs, and QA bug-fix records.
  • Tone and template aware output: Detects writing voice guidance and optionally applies a discovered patch-notes template to structure the final result.
  • Actionable, player-focused categorization: Organizes changes into New Content, Gameplay Changes, Quality of Life, Bug Fixes, Performance, and Known Issues while converting internal jargon into player language.
  • Release-archive saving: Produces a draft and then, when approved, writes the notes to both the public patch-notes path and the internal archive.

Quick Start
