releasenotes 📋

Generate categorized release notes from git log.

Commands

# Generate from all commits
python3 scripts/releasenotes.py --path /path/to/repo

# Date range
python3 scripts/releasenotes.py --since 2026-03-01 --until 2026-03-27

# With version label
python3 scripts/releasenotes.py --version v2.0.0 --since v1.0.0

# Output to file
python3 scripts/releasenotes.py -o CHANGELOG.md --version v1.0.0

Each entry includes commit hash and author.

Usage Guidance

This skill appears to do what it says: it runs the included Python script which calls 'git log' on a repo and formats release notes. Before installing or running it, ensure you have python3 and the git CLI available, and point it at the intended repository (it will read the full commit history you give it). Because it executes a bundled script, review the script if you are uncomfortable running third-party code; note it may output commit messages (which can contain sensitive information) into files. The duplicate script files are odd but likely harmless; the main real fix would be to update the metadata to declare the 'git' requirement.

Capability Analysis

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: releasenotes Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is a straightforward utility for generating release notes from Git commit history using the Conventional Commits convention. The Python script (releasenotes.py) uses subprocess.run safely without shell=True, contains no network activity, and performs no unauthorized data access or exfiltration.

Capability Assessment

ℹ Purpose & Capability

The name/description match the included code: both scripts run 'git log', parse Conventional Commits, and emit Markdown release notes. However, the registry metadata claims 'Required binaries: none' despite the scripts invoking 'git' (and the SKILL.md showing 'python3' usage). This omission is an inconsistency but plausibly an oversight rather than malicious.

✓ Instruction Scope

SKILL.md directs the agent to run the provided Python script against a repository path, optionally with date ranges, version labels, or output file. The scripts only invoke 'git' against the specified path, parse commit messages, and write local output; they do not contact external endpoints, read other unrelated system files, or access environment variables.

✓ Install Mechanism

There is no install spec (instruction-only skill) and the source files are included. No network downloads or archive extraction occur. Note: the repository contains duplicate copies of the same script (root and scripts/), which is unusual but not harmful.

✓ Credentials

The skill declares no environment variables and the code does not read secrets or environment variables. The only external dependency is the git binary (and Python runtime), which is proportional to the stated purpose.

✓ Persistence & Privilege

The skill does not request permanent/always-on presence, does not modify other skills or agent-wide settings, and only writes output to a user-specified file path. Normal autonomous invocation is allowed by platform default but not a specific additional risk here.

How to Use

Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
