Release notes now live in changelog/<version>.md (front matter with version and date, then ## App and ## VS Code sections grouped into New, Improvements, Fixes, Misc) plus changelog/unreleased.md for what has not shipped. `bun run changelog:build` renders CHANGELOG.md, packages/vscode/CHANGELOG.md, and changelog/index.json from them; `changelog:check` fails when the outputs are behind and runs in CI and in release:prepare. `oc-dev create-release` promotes unreleased.md to the versioned file dated today and rebuilds. The existing history was split mechanically: every bullet kept, sorted into groups by keyword, five hand-typed headers with one-digit days normalised to YYYY-MM-DD (the update dialog matched none of them). The generated files keep today's release headers, which the update dialog, the release workflow, and the website match by regex.
