Release Announcement Generator

Draft social media posts for Twitter/X and LinkedIn by analyzing what actually changed — not just parroting commit messages.

Gathering Context

Step 1: Determine what's being announced

# Get the most recent tag
CURRENT_TAG=$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)
PREVIOUS_TAG=$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 "$CURRENT_TAG^")

# Get the date of the previous tag for filtering PRs/issues
SINCE_DATE=$(git log -1 --format=%aI "$PREVIOUS_TAG")

Step 2: Gather signals (in order of usefulness)

PRs merged since last release:

gh pr list --state merged --search "merged:>=$SINCE_DATE" --json number,title,body,labels --limit 100

Issues closed since last release:

gh issue list --state closed --search "closed:>=$SINCE_DATE" --json number,title,body,labels --limit 100

Diff between tags:

git diff "$PREVIOUS_TAG".."$CURRENT_TAG" -- '*.ts' '*.js' '*.tsx' '*.jsx' '*.py' '*.go' '*.rs' ':!*.lock' ':!*.min.*'

Files changed (reveals scope):

git diff --name-only "$PREVIOUS_TAG".."$CURRENT_TAG"

New or changed test descriptions:

git diff "$PREVIOUS_TAG".."$CURRENT_TAG" -- '**/*.test.*' '**/*.spec.*' '**/test_*' '**/*_test.*'

Config and dependency changes:

git diff "$PREVIOUS_TAG".."$CURRENT_TAG" -- 'package.json' '*.toml' '*.yaml' '*.yml' '*.env.example' '*.config.*'

Commit messages (last resort):

git log --oneline "$PREVIOUS_TAG".."$CURRENT_TAG"

Step 3: Also check for existing release notes

# Check if there's a GitHub release with notes already
gh release view "$CURRENT_TAG" --json body --jq '.body' 2>/dev/null

If release notes already exist, use them as the primary source and supplement with the gathered context.

Selecting What to Announce

Not everything in a release is announcement-worthy.

Include

• Major new features users asked for (check closed issues)
• Significant performance improvements with real numbers
• Long-standing bug fixes that affected many users
• New integrations or platform support

Skip

• Internal refactors
• Minor bug fixes
• Dependency updates
• CI/CD changes
• Test improvements

Newsworthiness check

Ask: "Would a user of this product care enough to click through?" If no, skip it.

Writing Rules

• Lead with the single most compelling change
• Write about benefits, not features: "Ship 3x faster" not "Add parallel build pipeline"
• Never mention file names, function names, or technical internals
• Use active voice
• Sound human — not like a corporate press release
• Include a link to the release or changelog if available
• Keep Twitter/X posts under 280 characters
• For LinkedIn, keep it to 3-5 short paragraphs max

Output Format

Generate both formats:

Biggest addition: bulk CSV export for any report type — custom date ranges, filters, the works.

Also: keyboard shortcuts, faster search, and bug fixes.

LinkedIn

ProjectName v2.4.0 just shipped with a feature our users have been asking for: bulk CSV export.

You can now export any report — including custom reports — to CSV with full control over date ranges and filters. No more copying data by hand.

We also added keyboard shortcuts for common actions, improved search performance for large workspaces, and fixed several bugs.
