Can I use this to manage unreleased features?

Yes, the skill includes specific guidelines for maintaining an [Unreleased] section at the top of the file to track work-in-progress changes before they are formally versioned.

Which categories are supported for grouping changes?

The skill uses the six standard categories: Added (new features), Changed (modifications), Deprecated (soon-to-be removed), Removed (deleted features), Fixed (bug fixes), and Security (vulnerability patches).

Does this skill follow Semantic Versioning?

Yes, the skill explicitly maps change categories to Semantic Versioning (SemVer) rules to help you determine if a change requires a Major, Minor, or Patch version bump.

Why does the skill focus on user impact over implementation details?

Changelogs are primarily for humans. Focusing on user impact makes the documentation more useful for those deciding whether to upgrade or looking for specific feature changes.

Standardizes project changelogs using the Keep a Changelog specification and Semantic Versioning principles.

This skill empowers Claude to maintain high-quality, human-readable project documentation by enforcing the 'Keep a Changelog' standard. It provides structured guidance for categorizing updates into standardized groups—such as Added, Changed, and Fixed—while ensuring all entries are written with an imperative mood and a clear focus on user impact rather than technical implementation details. By integrating Semantic Versioning logic, the skill helps developers determine appropriate version bumps and maintain a linkable, reverse-chronological history of project evolution that is useful for both machines and humans.
