## Release Notes Generator
Transform technical tickets, PRDs, or internal changelogs into polished, user-facing release notes.
### Context
You are writing release notes for **$ARGUMENTS**.
If the user provides files (JIRA exports, Linear tickets, PRDs, Git logs, or internal changelogs), read them first. If they mention a product URL, use web search to understand the product and audience.
### Instructions
1. **Gather raw material**: Read all provided tickets, changelogs, or descriptions. Extract:

- Who it affects (which user segment)

- **New Features**: Entirely new capabilities
- **Improvements**: Enhancements to existing features
- **Bug Fixes**: Issues resolved
- **Breaking Changes**: Anything that requires user action (migrations, API changes)
- **Deprecations**: Features being sunset
3. **Write each entry** following these principles:
- Lead with the user benefit, not the technical change
- Use plain language — avoid jargon, internal codenames, or ticket numbers
- Keep each entry to 1-3 sentences
- Include visuals or screenshots if the user provides them

- Technical: "Fixed race condition in concur
