Merge completed worksheets into the final release notes and polish them. Trigger on "gen final notes", "generate final release notes", "build final.md", "merge release notes", "finalize release notes". This is the LAST step of the release-notes pipeline, after all <version>/done/result_*.md worksheets are complete.

Generate PyTorch release notes for a functional area. Use when the user says "gen-release-notes", "release notes", or wants to write/complete release notes for a functional area like "aotdispatcher", "dynamo", "inductor", etc.

Bootstrap a new PyTorch release version in this repo by generating the categorized commit list and per-area worksheets. Use when starting a release (e.g. "gen commitlist for 2.13", "set up 2.13.0 worksheets", "generate the commits for the next release"). This is the UPSTREAM step that produces <version>/todo/result_*.md; use gen-release-notes to complete each worksheet.

Generate the GitHub release notes for a PyTorch PATCH (bug-fix) release like 2.12.1, 2.9.1, 2.7.1. Patch releases are very minimal — a short intro, an optional "Regression fixes" / "Tracked Regressions" section, and a few category buckets of cherry-picked fixes. Use when the user says "patch release notes", "gen patch release notes", "bug fix release notes", or names a patch version (X.Y.Z with Z > 0).

Draft a dev-discuss.pytorch.org forum post that calls for feature submissions for an upcoming PyTorch release, in the style of "Reminder — Calls for Features & Upcoming Branch Cut". Use when the user asks for a release announcement, feature-submission reminder, call-for-features post, or dev-discuss post for a release. Produces a Markdown draft that merges the official key-dates timeline with the AI-identified feature list, and asks owning teams to file "Release highlight for Proposed Feature" issues.

Produce a draft "Features" section for a PyTorch release blog post by comparing two release branches (e.g., release/2.11 vs release/2.12). Use when the user asks to generate a release blog, list new features for a release, compare release branches, or draft content for pytorch.org/blog. Organizes features similar to https://pytorch.org/blog/pytorch-2-11-release-blog/ with Highlights and per-component sections (Dynamo, Inductor, Distributed, Export, MPS, ROCm, XPU, CPU, etc.), each tagged with stability (Stable / Beta / Prototype / API-Unstable).

Process cherry-picks from a release tracker issue. Trigger on "process cherry-picks", "cherry-picks", "update cherry picks".

Distribute miscategorized PRs back to correct worksheets. Trigger on "categorize miscategorized", "distribute miscategorized", "process miscategorized".
