PR Changelog
Edit only CHANGELOG.md.
Fast path:
- Run
git status --short --branch.
- Use branch/upstream only as hints to find the PR; never trust numbers in branch names.
- Fetch PR metadata: number, title, author, base branch, linked issues.
- Inspect the smallest useful scope, usually changed filenames and
git diff --stat <base>...HEAD; read patches only if metadata and filenames are unclear.
- In the top unpublished section, update an existing
#PR bullet or append one bullet to the current list.
Rules:
- Summarize only this PR.
- Keep the entry concise and user-facing.
- Add new bullets to the end of the latest block.
- Do not modify text outside this bullet before asking.
- Include
(#PR, #issue) @author when known.
Style:
* Component: Add/Fix/Improve concise description (#PR, #issue) @author
Choose Component from the PR's changed public API, feature, control, cookbook area, or affected file names. Prefer the smallest accurate user-facing name; do not default to a memorized category list. Reuse nearby changelog component wording only when it clearly matches this PR.
Final response: report the text added to the changelog.
