What problem does it solve?
This Skill turns Ark release data into a polished Slack announcement, saving time on manual changelog writing and helping teams communicate updates clearly.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Release synthesis: Pulls together user-visible changes from Ark core and the Marketplace into one cohesive post.
- Theme-based organization: Groups updates into consistent sections so readers can quickly scan what changed.
- Docs-aware linking: Validates documentation pages and attaches the most relevant links to each feature.
- Upgrade awareness: Surfaces breaking changes, deprecations, and migration guidance so users know what to do next.
- Forward-looking context: Adds a “Coming next” section based on the active sprint to show what is in progress.
- Use case: A product or developer-relations team can ask for a release announcement and get a ready-to-post Slack message instead of assembling notes from multiple repositories.
Quick Start
Ask the slack-announcement skill to create a release announcement for the Ark version range you want, and specify whether you need a full post or a shorter announcement variant.
