Draft CHANGELOG entries from git log via the pm-changelog-curator sub-agent, applying the repo hygiene rules (describe what changed, public paths only, no attribution trailers). Returns a layered draft with a status summary for maintainer review; refuses a dirty working tree unless --committed-only is passed. Use when banking unreleased changes or preparing a release.

PM Changelog Curator (Dispatch Skill)
Cross-client dispatch wrapper for the pm-changelog-curator sub-agent. Detects runtime; dispatches to the native sub-agent on Claude Code; reads agents/pm-changelog-curator.md and executes inline on non-Claude clients.
When to Use
- You are preparing a release and want a CHANGELOG draft from git log between two tags
- You are running on a non-Claude AI client without native pm-changelog-curator sub-agent support
- You want a draft that respects pm-skills CHANGELOG hygiene rules (no internal-notes references, no em-dashes, public paths only) without manually applying them
When NOT to Use
- You want to commit CHANGELOG entries directly (this skill produces a draft for review, not a commit)
- You want to review a PM artifact -> use
utility-pm-criticinstead - You want a repo-wide governance audit -> use
utility-pm-skill-auditor - You want a full guided release flow -> use
utility-pm-release-conductor(which chains to this skill at gate G2)
Instructions
Runtime detection step. Determine which AI client is invoking this skill.
If you are running in Claude Code with the pm-skills plugin installed
Invoke @agent-pm-skills:pm-changelog-curator with the user's arguments. Pass --since-tag, --target-version, --committed-only from $ARGUMENTS if present. Return the sub-agent's draft to the user.
If you are running in any other AI client
Codex CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini CLI, or any other client without native pm-skills plugin sub-agent support:
- Read the canonical sub-agent definition at
agents/pm-changelog-curator.md - Execute the system prompt body in that file as your operating instructions
- Run the 8-step drafting flow documented in the sub-agent definition (establish range -> read hygiene rules -> check working tree -> enumerate commits -> classify -> group -> rewrite -> determine target version -> emit draft)
- Apply
--since-tag,--target-version, and--committed-onlyarguments from$ARGUMENTS - Return the layered output per master plan D26 (full CHANGELOG draft + Status Summary + Status YAML)
Cross-Client Notes
The dispatch skill requires the AI client to:
- Execute Bash for
git log,git describe, andgit statusinvocations - Read CLAUDE.md hygiene rules and existing CHANGELOG.md format reference
- Read the canonical sub-agent definition file
- Treat the agent body as operating instructions
See Sub-Agent Compatibility Matrix for the canonical cross-client status. Summary for this skill as of v2.16.0: PRODUCTION on Claude Code + Codex CLI (Codex CLI successfully ran git log + read CLAUDE.md hygiene rules + drafted clean CHANGELOG entries + correct dirty-tree refusal); EXPERIMENTAL on Cursor / Windsurf / Copilot CLI / Gemini CLI. If a client is unreliable, fall back to manual git log + manual drafting using CLAUDE.md as the hygiene reference.

product-on-purpose/utility-pm-workflow-builder
tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Guides a contributor from a workflow idea to a complete Workflow Implementation Packet (draft workflow file, draft workflow command, cross-cutting update checklist) in a staging area for review. Runs overlap analysis against the existing workflows with a Why Gate, then helps select and sequence skills with authored handoffs. Use when creating a new multi-skill workflow or promoting a repeated ad-hoc chain into a durable one. To build a single skill instead, use utility-pm-skill-builder; to run a sequence without authoring anything, use the chain command or utility-pm-workflow-orchestrator.

tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Run an ordered sequence of pm-skills against one input, pausing for go/no-go and stopping on a failed or empty step. Accepts a saved prioritized action plan (Mode A) or an ad-hoc named chain (Mode B; the chain command routes here). Explicit invocation only; run --dry-run first while the native path is EXPERIMENTAL. To author a durable workflow instead, use utility-pm-workflow-builder.

Run a repo-wide cross-cutting governance audit via the pm-skill-auditor sub-agent. Aggregates the enforcing validator suite, re-derives aggregate counters, and surfaces cross-cutting issues no single validator catches, graded P0/P1/P2/P3 with a machine-readable status. Use for pre-release readiness checks or a periodic repo health audit.

Walk the guided 6-gate release runbook (G0 readiness, G1 adversarial review, G2 version bump and CHANGELOG, G2.5 commit and re-verify, G3 tag and push, G4 post-tag hygiene) via the pm-release-conductor sub-agent. Refuses gate bypasses and tags only the re-verified SHA. Use when cutting a pm-skills release.
