BB cm-release-notes-humanizer
Turn a raw git log, PR title list, or changelog dump into customer-facing release notes that read like a human wrote them. Detects categories (new feature / improvement / fix / breaking change / removed), filters internal/refactor noise, groups items by user value, rewrites every line from "Added X" to user-benefit framing, and generates per-audience versions (in-app changelog, email blast, developer changelog, marketing tweet, status-page note). Covers tone modulation, emoji rules, version numbering schemes, and template patterns from Linear, Stripe, Vercel, Figma, Tailwind, and Notion. Triggers on "release notes", "changelog", "what's new", "version notes", "humanize changelog", "rewrite release", "v1.2 release", "ship notes", "product update post", "patch notes", "semver", "calver".
As a process B 70/100 · Nearly there — weak spots: inputs and preconditions, consistency, running it twice
How to improve
- Say in the description WHEN to use the skill ("use when…", example requests): that is the agent's main cue.
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Against the Agent Skills spec
- warning
description-no-whendescription does not say WHEN to use the skill (no "use when") - warning
body-longSKILL.md body ≈ 5163 tokens (recommended < 5000); move details to references/
Process rating: all ten parameters 70/100
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 26 mutating operations with no state check
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (cm-release-notes-humanizer) differs from the folder (release-notes-humanizer)
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 60Failures and branches. 2 branches
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 5163 tokens
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 59 steps
- 100When it triggers. States when to use and when not to
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
