Update Changelog

Maintain CHANGELOG.md at the repo root. Run every command from the repo root.

Determine the range

1. Read the cutoff marker near the top of CHANGELOG.md:

   <!--
   Last updated through commit: <full-hash> (<short-hash>)
   ...
   -->
   

   Document only commits landed after that hash. If CHANGELOG.md does not exist yet, ask the user (or infer from the request) how far back to go.

2. List the commits to document, newest first:

   git log <cutoff-hash>..HEAD --pretty=format:"%H|%ad|%s" --date=short
   

   For a fresh changelog with a date bound instead of a hash, use git log --since="<date>" ....

Structure

• Group by week, newest week first. Weeks run Monday–Sunday; a commit dated on a Sunday closes the week that began the preceding Monday. Heading format: ## Week of YYYY-MM-DD – YYYY-MM-DD.
• Within each week, one top-level bullet per area (the general subsystem a change touched). Common areas: Frontend, MCP, RAG, Backend, Text/corpus, Dev infra, CI/build, AGD types, Parsing robustness, Tech debt, Docs, Project/docs. Add a new area label when a recurring one isn't covered.
• Under each area, write sub-bullets describing the changes. Group similar commits together rather than listing them one-to-one — e.g. a dozen floating-panel PRs collapse into a few sub-bullets. Keep descriptions brief and outcome-focused; reference PR/issue numbers only when they add value.

Text/corpus split

The Text/corpus area is special: split its sub-bullets into two labeled groups, new content first, then changes:

- **Text/corpus**
  - *New content:*
    - <newly extracted categories / data>
  - *Enhancements & fixes:*
    - <restructuring, keying fixes, titling, corpus regeneration>

Classify a commit as new content when it surfaces game data not previously in the corpus (a new category, newly extracted descriptions/stories). Everything else — restructuring, dedup, keying fixes, human-readable titles, regenerations — goes under Enhancements & fixes.

Update the cutoff marker

After writing the entries, set the marker to the newest documented commit (HEAD of the range). Keep both the full hash and the short hash:

Last updated through commit: <full-hash> (<short-hash>)

Notes

• Fold Update text commits and submodule-pointer moves into the relevant corpus entry; don't list them on their own.
• When unsure which area a commit belongs to, read its diff/subject — the PR title usually names the subsystem.
• Don't invent changes. Every bullet must trace to a real commit in the range.
