Use:Claude
In one chat, ask for grouping by user impact with a held-back list, plain wording citing tickets, then flags on lines an engineer must confirm.
Details
What to paste into the tool
Task: Proposed grouping: grouped list plus held-back list. Here are merged PR titles with ticket summaries for version 2.4. Group them by user impact as new, improved, fixed. Put internal-only items on a separate held list with the reason. Every line keeps its ticket ID. Describe nothing that is not in the tickets. Task: Release notes draft. Rewrite each proposed group as release notes in plain user language. Each line ends with its ticket ID. Say nothing that is not in the ticket text. This is a draft for approval, not for publishing. Task: Confirmation list. Read the draft against the ticket text. Add an inline [confirm] marker on every line that asserts behaviour, scope or effect an engineer should verify, and list those claims separately.
Check every line, then approve or hold

Check
