Release Notes Generator

Procedure

1. Extract unreleased entries

Read CHANGELOG.md and extract everything under ## [Unreleased] up to the next ## [vX.Y.Z] header.

2. Format for GitHub Release

Structure the release notes:

## What's Changed

### ✨ New Features
<entries from ### Added>

### 🔧 Changes
<entries from ### Changed>

### 🐛 Bug Fixes
<entries from ### Fixed>

### ⚠️ Deprecated
<entries from ### Deprecated>

### 💥 Breaking Changes
<entries from ### Removed>

---

**Full Changelog**: <link to compare between last tag and new tag>

Omit empty sections.

3. Generate CHANGELOG update

Prepare the CHANGELOG update — replace ## [Unreleased] content with a new versioned section:

## [Unreleased]

## [vX.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD

### Added
<moved entries>

### Fixed
<moved entries>

4. Output

Return:

• The formatted release notes (for GitHub Release body)
• The updated CHANGELOG.md content (for committing)
