Checks

PASS
Recognizable release entries. 10 entries parsed ("## heading" style). Guide: The Keep a Changelog format, explained
PASS
Every entry has a date. All entries carry a date — readers can tell when things shipped. Guide: The Keep a Changelog format, explained
PASS
Newest release first. Entries run newest to oldest. Guide: Changelog page design: layout and UI patterns that work
PASS
Titles say what changed. No “bug fixes and improvements”-style filler titles found. Guide: How to write a changelog (with examples)
PASS
Entries have content. No empty version-only entries. Guide: Release notes templates: copy-paste formats for every kind of change
WARN
Written for readers, not a commit dump. 8 entries look like raw git log output (commit hashes / “feat:” prefixes). Generated lists are a draft — edit before publishing. Guide: Generate a changelog from git commits (without publishing garbage)
PASS
Bullets say what changed. No zero-information bullets (“wip”, “fix stuff”) found. Guide: How to write a changelog (with examples)
NOTE
Breaking changes stand out. No breaking changes mentioned. When one ships, flag it loudly — “Breaking:” first, migration steps included. Guide: How to announce breaking changes (without losing users)
