A changelog from Linear every other week
u/Senseifc let Claude Cowork take the changelog he spent an hour on every other week. It reads finished issues in Linear, writes the text and can publish. 90 percent of the time he reads and ships. He still makes the header image himself, in 2 minutes.

What was done
On 17 March 2026 u/Senseifc writes in r/ClaudeAI that he is a PM. The task he disliked most was the changelog after the sprint. Every other week he spent an hour on finished issues in Linear, chose what was worth mentioning, wrote the text in ChatGPT, published, and decided on email or a notice in the app. Now a Cowork task runs every other week. Claude connects to Linear with MCP, pulls finished issues, finds what is visible to users, writes the text from the issue and can publish through another MCP. If the update is big enough, it can trigger email and a notice in the app. Smaller things go only to the changelog page. He writes that the text is better than what he wrote himself, because it includes details from the description and the comments. 90 percent of the time he reads and ships. He still makes the header image himself, in 2 minutes.
How it went
The changelog can be published by the task. He writes that 90 percent of the time he reads and ships. The post does not say what happens the other times, or whether publishing waits for that read.
Worth knowing
The product is not named. "Big enough" is not defined. "90 percent" are his words. The header image is outside the flow. The post shows no finished changelog.
How to do it
- Pull finished issues and let the text become a draft.
- Read the draft against the issues. Remove what users do not need.
- Make the header image yourself. Do not publish and do not send email before you have said yes.
Try it with Claude Cowork
Pull finished issues from [board] for [period]. Write a changelog from the text of the issues. Do not publish and do not send email or a notice until I say yes.
Replace text in brackets with your own.
Done when. The draft has been read, and the changelog has not been published and the email has not been sent without a yes.
Safety rule. The agent does not publish and does not send email or a notice until you say yes.
