Developer tool changelog template

Use this fictional example as a starting point. Replace versions, dates, supported environments and behavior with tested facts from your release.

Example 1

A versioned release with concrete next steps

Improved

CLI 2.0.0 — 2026-06-10

Breaking changes

  • deploy --env is replaced by deploy --environment.
  • Exit code 2 now indicates invalid configuration.

Migration

  1. Update CI commands to deploy --environment staging.
  2. Handle exit code 2 as a configuration failure, not a retry.
  3. Run deploy --dry-run --environment staging before production.

Fixed

  • Dry-run no longer writes deployment metadata.

Why it works: Names the changed surface and includes a verification action rather than asking consumers to infer the migration.
