name	template-changelog
description	Create and update CHANGELOG.md entries for this template repo with date, previous commit hash, new commit subject, and summary/why/LLM notes/impact. Use when making template changes or preparing a push that requires a changelog entry.

Template Changelog

Workflow

1. Determine whether the change modifies the template (code, config, docs, deps). If yes, add a changelog entry.
2. Decide the commit subject (the single commit you will create for the change).
3. Record the previous commit hash (short): git rev-parse --short HEAD.
4. Add a new entry at the top of ## Entries in CHANGELOG.md using the template in references/changelog-format.md.
5. Commit everything (template changes + CHANGELOG.md) in a single commit using the subject from step 2.
6. Keep entries in reverse chronological order and avoid editing older entries except for corrections.

Notes

• The pre-push hook blocks pushes that do not include a CHANGELOG.md change.
