Your Task
**IMMEDIATELY DEPLOY 10 PARALLEL SUB-AGENTS** for instant changelog generation
STEP 1: Initialize changelog generation session
- CREATE session state file: `/tmp/changelog-$SESSION_ID.json`
- Initialize results directory: `/tmp/changelog-results-$SESSION_ID/`
STEP 2: **LAUNCH ALL 10 AGENTS SIMULTANEOUSLY**
**NO SEQUENTIAL ANALYSIS** - All agents work in parallel:
1. **Commit Analysis Agent**: Extract and classify all commits in range 2. **Breaking Changes Agent**: Identify breaking changes and migration needs 3. **Feature Detection Agent**: Find all new features and enhancements 4. **Bug Fix Agent**: Catalog all bug fixes and patches 5. **Security Analysis Agent**: Identify security-related commits 6. **Version Calculation Agent**: Determine semantic version bump 7. **Contributor Analysis Agent**: Analyze contributor statistics 8. **PR/Issue Agent**: Extract PR and issue references 9. **Performance Agent**: Find performance improvements 10. **Documentation Agent**: Track documentation changes
Each agent saves results to: `/tmp/changelog-results-$SESSION_ID/agent-N.json`
**Expected speedup: 10x faster than sequential analysis**
IF $ARGUMENTS provided:
- PARSE target range (version, date range, commit range)
- VALIDATE range exists in git history
- SET scope to "targeted"
ELSE IF latest tag exists:
- SET range from latest tag to HEAD
- SET scope to "release"
ELSE:
- SET range to entire git history
- SET scope to "initial"
STEP 3: Changelog Generation Process
TRY:
- EXECUTE commit analysis based on determined scope
- CLASSIFY commits using conventional commit patterns
- GENERATE structured changelog sections
- APPLY version numbering if applicable
CATCH (git_operation_failed):
- LOG error to session state
- PROVIDE manual changelog guidance
- SAVE partial results if any
**Commit History Gathering:**
FOR scope = "targeted":
- EXTRACT commits in specified range using validated git commands
- VERIFY range validity before processing
- HANDLE edge cases (empty range, invalid refs)
FOR scope = "release":
- GET commits since latest tag: `git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD`
- INCLUDE merge commits and PR references
- FOCUS on user-facing changes
FOR scope = "initial":
- PROCESS entire git history with pagination
- LIMIT to recent significant commits for readability
- PRIORITIZE major features and breaking changes
**Commit Classification Engine:**
FOR EACH commit in range:
- EXTRACT commit message and metadata
- APPLY conventional commit pattern matching
- CLASSIFY into changelog sections
- EXTRACT PR/issue references
- IDENTIFY breaking changes
- CALCULATE impact score
STEP 4: Intelligent commit analysis and classification
**Commit Pattern Recognition:**
# Conventional commit type detection
git log $RANGE --pretty=format:"%h|%s|%b" | \
rg "^([a-f0-9]+)\|((feat|fix|docs|style|refactor|perf|test|chore|build|ci)(\(.+\))?(!)?:)" || echo "No conventional commits"
# Breaking change detection
git log $RANGE --pretty=format:"%h|%s|%b" | \
rg "(BREAKING CHANGE:|!:)" || echo "No breaking changes"
# PR and issue reference extraction
git log $RANGE --pretty=format:"%s" | \
rg "#([0-9]+)" -o --replace='$1' | sort -u || echo "No PR/issue references"
# Security-related commits
git log $RANGE --pretty=format:"%h|%s" | \
rg "(security|vulnerability|CVE|XSS|SQL injection|CSRF)" -i || echo "No security commits"
**Advanced Classification Logic:**
FOR EACH commit:
- MATCH against conventional commit patterns
- EXTRACT scope and description
- IDENTIFY breaking change indicators (!: or BREAKING CHANGE:)
- DETECT security implications
- CALCULATE semantic version impact
- ASSIGN to appropriate changelog section
**Version Number Determination:**
IF breaking changes detected:
- INCREMENT major version
- RESET minor and patch to 0
ELSE IF features detected:
- INCREMENT minor version
- RESET patch to 0
ELSE IF fixes detected:
- INCREMENT patch version
ELSE:
- SUGGEST manual version review
STEP 5: Generate structured changelog output
**Changelog Template Generation:**
# Changelog
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).

{EXISTING_CHANGELOG_CONTENT}**Section Organization and Content:**
FOR EACH changelog section:
- SORT by impact and importance
- INCLUDE commit hash for traceability
- ADD PR/issue references when available
- FORMAT with consistent bullet points
- GROUP related changes together
