changelog-demo-command — Claude Code command: features and install
Explore changelog generation and format checks using Git history. The command is useful for reviewing release-note workflows and their tests.
npx claude-code-templates@latest --command deployment/changelog-demo-commandWhat changelog-demo-command does
The command reads the project’s CHANGELOG.md and version details from package.json, pyproject.toml, or Cargo.toml when present. It also fetches recent commits with git log and recent tags with git tag.
Its demos cover generating entries from commits, Keep a Changelog and conventional-changelog formats, change categories, and semantic versioning. You can inspect format checks, suggested fixes, tests with different commit-message patterns, and error handling. Another section measures speed and memory use against large commit histories.
Use --generate, --validate, or --demo, or pass a format as an argument. This is a demo command; its integration-testing section exercises the workflow without affecting the main process.
What it helps with
- Create sample changelog entries from Git commits
- Compare Keep a Changelog with conventional-changelog
- Check an existing changelog for format compliance
- Test handling of different commit-message patterns
- Measure speed and memory use on a large commit history
Example prompts for the agent
- Show the changelog generation demo:
/changelog-demo-command --generate - Check the current changelog format:
/changelog-demo-command --validate - Run the full changelog automation demo:
/changelog-demo-command --demo
