Changelog Social

Generate engaging social media announcements from changelog entries.

Workflow

Step 1: Extract Changelog Entry

Read ./CHANGELOG.md and extract the latest version entry. The changelog follows this format:

## [VERSION]

### 🎁 Features
* **Title** — Description

### 🐛 Bug Fixes
* **Title** — Description

### 📚 Documentation
* **Title** — Description

### 🔧 Maintenance
* **Title** — Description

Parse:

• Version number (e.g., 6.0.0-Beta.5)
• Features - New functionality, enhancements
• Bug Fixes - Fixes users will care about
• Documentation - New or improved docs
• Maintenance - Dependency updates, tooling improvements

Step 2: Get Git Contributors

Use git log to find contributors since the previous version. Get commits between the current version tag and the previous one:

# Find the previous version tag first
git tag --sort=-version:refname | head -5

# Get commits between versions with PR numbers and authors
git log <previous-tag>..<current-tag> --pretty=format:"%h|%s|%an" --grep="#"

Extract PR numbers from commit messages that contain # followed by digits. Compile unique contributors.

Step 3: Generate Discord Announcement

Limit: 2,000 characters per message. Split into multiple messages if needed.

Use this template style:

🚀 **EVO vVERSION RELEASED!**

🎉 [Brief hype sentence]

🪥 **KEY HIGHLIGHT** - [One-line summary]

🎯 **CATEGORY NAME**
• Feature one - brief description
• Feature two - brief description
• Coming soon: Future teaser

🔧 **ANOTHER CATEGORY**

📚 **DOCS OR OTHER**
• Item
• Item with link

🌟 **COMMUNITY PHILOSOPHY** (optional - include for major releases)
• Everything is FREE - No paywalls
• Knowledge shared, not sold

🔥 **Next version tease!**

Content Strategy:

• Focus on user impact - what's better for them?
• Highlight annoying bugs fixed that frustrated users
• Show new capabilities that enable workflows
• Keep it punchy - use emojis and short bullets
• Add personality - excitement, humor, gratitude

Step 4: Generate Twitter Post

Limit: 25,000 characters per tweet (Premium). With Premium, use a single comprehensive post matching the Discord style (minus Discord-specific formatting). Aim for 1,500-3,000 characters for better engagement.

Threads are optional — only use for truly massive releases where you want multiple engagement points.

See examples/twitter-example.md for the single-post Premium format.

Content Selection Guidelines

Include:

• New features that change workflows
• Bug fixes for annoying/blocking issues
• Documentation that helps users
• Performance improvements
• New agents or workflows
• Breaking changes (call out clearly)

Skip/Minimize:

• Internal refactoring
• Dependency updates (unless user-facing)
• Test improvements
• Minor style fixes

Emphasize:

• "Finally fixed" issues
• "Faster" operations
• "Easier" workflows
• "Now supports" capabilities

Examples

Reference example posts in examples/ for tone and formatting guidance:

• discord-example.md — Full Discord announcement with emojis, sections, contributor shout-outs
• twitter-example.md — Twitter thread format (5 tweets max for major releases)
• linkedin-example.md — Professional post for major/minor releases with significant features

When to use LinkedIn:

• Major version releases (e.g., v6.0.0 Beta, v7.0.0)
• Minor releases with exceptional new features
• Community milestone announcements

Read the appropriate example file before generating to match the established style and voice.

Output Format

CRITICAL: ALWAYS write to files - Create files in _evo-output/social/ directory:

1. {repo-name}-discord-{version}.md - Discord announcement
2. {repo-name}-twitter-{version}.md - Twitter post
3. {repo-name}-linkedin-{version}.md - LinkedIn post (if applicable)

Also present a preview in the chat:

## Discord Announcement

[paste Discord content here]

## Twitter Post

[paste Twitter content here]

Files created:

• _evo-output/social/{filename}

Offer to make adjustments if the user wants different emphasis, tone, or content.
