Checks

PASS
Recognizable release entries. 69 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
WARN
Newest release first. 1 entry is out of date order. 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
PASS
Written for readers, not a commit dump. Entries read like notes for humans, not raw git log. Guide: Generate a changelog from git commits (without publishing garbage)
WARN
Breaking changes stand out. Breaking changes are mentioned mid-text but not flagged — lead with “Breaking:” or a heading so skimmers can’t miss them. Guide: How to announce breaking changes (without losing users)
WARN
Titles are unique. 1 title repeats (e.g. “Rust 1.66.1” ×2). Repeated titles are ambiguous to link to. Guide: How to write a changelog (with examples)
WARN
Dates are unambiguous. Found slash dates like 03/04/2026 — ambiguous across locales. Use ISO 8601 (2026-04-03). Guide: Machine-readable changelogs: feeds, APIs, and llms.txt for scripts and AI agents
