# Nightly changelog loop

Use this to keep release notes from becoming a late-stage archaeology project.

1. Inspect merged PRs, commits, and shipped issues for the day.
2. Separate internal-only changes from user-visible changes.
3. Add concise changelog entries for user-visible behavior.
4. Link source PRs or issues where useful.
5. Validate formatting and links.
6. Record a no-change note when nothing user-visible shipped.

Stop when every user-facing change has a changelog entry or an explicit no-change record exists.
