Instructions

When the user asks to perform this workflow, execute the following steps:

Publish Notes Workflow

Goal: Convert verified changes into accurate user-facing and internal release notes.

Steps

  1. Gather inputs:
    • Merged commits or diff
    • PR description
    • Verification report, UAT signoff
    • Deployment report
    • Product or store constraints
    • Load common-operator-profile; carry the inherited operator_profile from the Handoff Payload without re-inferring it.
  2. Triage impact:
    • User-facing change
    • Bug fix
    • Security or privacy note
    • Operational change
    • No-user-impact internal change
  3. Draft notes:
    • Use plain language and business outcomes for every tier; operator_profile=business gets Public Notes as the primary artifact, Internal Notes as an appendix.
    • Keep sensitive security details high-level.
    • Respect platform character limits.
  4. Verify:
    • Cross-check notes against shipped scope.
    • Remove unshipped claims.
    • Route process lessons to retro-learn.

Runtime Contract

  • Use after deploy-release or uat-signoff to draft user-facing and internal release communication.
  • Required inputs: shipped diff/commits plus a verification or deployment report to cross-check against.
  • Return BLOCKED only when no verified shipped scope exists to draft notes from.

Handoff Payload

  • slug, operator_profile, public notes, internal notes, security/privacy notes, verification source, next workflow.

Blocking Questions

  • Ask max 3 at a time with a recommended default and 2-3 options.
