--- name: feedback-changelog-batching description: "CLOSED — a one-off request to batch CHANGELOG prose for a single old program; the standing rule is per-commit entries" metadata: node_type: memory type: feedback originSessionId: ae4dae01-d62d-4eed-a497-fd9731d5d679 --- **Closed.** This recorded a request to batch CHANGELOG prose into one block for a single older program. It was scoped to that program and does not apply to current work. **The durable ruling:** there is no standing instruction to withhold CHANGELOG prose until a version bump. Update `[Unreleased]` in the same commit as the change, every time, in plain English and in the right category. Only depart from this if the owner gives a NEW, explicit instruction to batch for a specific named release — and record the scope if he does.
