Pulse/scripts/generate-release-notes.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Generate release notes with an agent that explores the actual repo history.
#
# Engine: headless Claude Code (`claude -p`, uses your Claude subscription —
# no API key), with Codex CLI (`codex exec`, OpenAI subscription) as fallback.
# The agent runs read-only git/gh commands itself instead of being fed
# pre-chewed diff fragments, so nothing user-visible is missed by grep luck.
#
# Usage:  ./scripts/generate-release-notes.sh <version> [previous-tag]
#
# Contract: the release notes markdown is written to STDOUT (trigger-release.sh
# captures it); all progress/diagnostics go to STDERR. SAVE_TO_FILE=1 also
# writes release-notes-v<version>.md.
#
# Env overrides:
#   RELEASE_NOTES_ENGINE=claude|codex   force an engine (default: claude, codex fallback)
#   RELEASE_NOTES_MODEL=<model>         model for the claude engine (default: sonnet)

You are generating the release notes for Pulse v${VERSION}.

Pulse is a self-hosted monitoring dashboard for Proxmox VE, PBS, Docker, and
Kubernetes, used mostly by homelab and small-ops users.

The repo is checked out at the commit that will become v${VERSION}. The
previous release tag is ${PREVIOUS_TAG}. Investigate the changes yourself —
start with \`git log ${PREVIOUS_TAG}..HEAD --oneline\` and
\`git diff ${PREVIOUS_TAG}..HEAD --stat\`, then use targeted \`git diff\` /
\`git show\` and read source files where the diff alone is unclear. For
commits that reference GitHub issues (#1234), you may use \`gh issue view\` to
understand the user-facing symptom. Only describe changes that exist in the
final code state; verify anything you are unsure about before writing it.

Focus on USER-VISIBLE changes only: features, fixes, and behavior users will
notice. Ignore internal refactors, test changes, CI/tooling, and docs.

Write the release notes in exactly this format:

## v${VERSION}

### Highlights
[2-4 short bullets, plain English, covering only what a typical user would
notice and care about. This section is rendered inside the Pulse UI itself
(the post-update "What's New" banner and the update-banner preview), so each
bullet must be self-contained and jargon-free. IMPORTANT: if this release has
nothing a typical user would notice (only internal fixes or minor patches),
OMIT this entire section — that deliberately keeps the in-app banner silent
for maintenance releases. Keep the heading at level 3 (###).]

### New Features
[Genuinely new user-facing capabilities. Be specific about what users can now do.]

### Bug Fixes
[Fixes for problems users would have encountered. Include issue refs like
(#1234) only when the fix verifiably addresses that issue.]

### Improvements
[Enhancements to existing features.]

Guidelines:
- Plain, factual, understated. No marketing language, no emojis.
- Omit any section that has no items.
- Do NOT write an Installation section or anything after Improvements — the
  release pipeline appends those.
- Highlights is the ONE exception to "boring": it is shown in-app to users who
  just updated, so pick the few changes they would actually notice — but still
  facts, no hype.

Your reply must be ONLY the release-notes markdown, starting with
"## v${VERSION}" — no preamble, no code fences, no commentary.
