System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
It turns bug fixes, security patches, and regression-heavy releases into release notes that explain what failed, what changed, and how the fix is verified.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Writes severity-sorted fix entries with the bug ID, user-visible symptom, code location, root-cause class, regression test, and commit SHA.
- Produces an executive summary with fix counts, weighted severity, and coverage delta, while stripping marketing language from the final notes.
- Handles patch releases, hotfixes, mixed feature-and-fix releases, and regulated releases that need traceability to prior versions and deferred regressions.
Quick Start
Write the v2.3.1 patch release notes as a postmortem-style changelog with six-field fix entries, a severity-sorted summary, deferred regressions, and a link to the prior release.
