Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Changelog Update the top `Unreleased` list in `CHANGELOG.md` from commits after the latest release. ## Workflow 1. Find the latest release base: - Prefer the latest reachable tag: `git describe --tags --abbrev=0`. - If there are no tags, search recent history for a release commit and use that hash. 2. Get commits: `git log <base>..HEAD --reverse --format='%H%x09%s'`. 3. Derive the GitHub repo URL from `git remote get-url origin`. 4. For each commit, add one concise changelog line: - Format: `- [<short-hash>](<url>) <one-line summary>` - If the commit clearly relates to a PR, link the hash to the PR URL instead of the commit URL. - Detect PRs from subjects like `(#123)`, merge commits, or `gh pr list --search <hash> --state all --json number,url`. 5. Insert the new lines into the top `Unreleased` section/list in `CHANGELOG.md`. - If no `Unreleased` section exists, create one at the top. - Do not create a dated release heading unless the user asks for a release. ## Rules - Keep one line per commit. - Preserve the existing changelog style when obvious. - Always add entries to the top `Unreleased` list. - Skip noisy commits only when clearly non-user-facing and explain what was skipp

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add codeaholicguy/ai-devkit --skill changelog --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From codeaholicguy/ai-devkit, a repository with 1,572 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
