Claude

Claude Code loads skills from ~/.claude/skills/ (all projects) or .claude/skills/ (one project):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip.git
cp -r paperclip/packages/skills-catalog/catalog/optional/content/release-announcement ~/.claude/skills/release-announcement   # personal, or .claude/skills in a project

In the Claude apps, zip the release-announcement folder and upload it under Customize > Skills > + > Upload a skill (code execution must be on).

ChatGPT / Codex

cp -r paperclip/packages/skills-catalog/catalog/optional/content/release-announcement .agents/skills/release-announcement   # repo; ~/.agents/skills for all projects

Standalone skills also load in the ChatGPT desktop app.

What this skill does

Write a release announcement — changelog, blog post, in-app note, or social post — that leads with user impact, names the audience, and includes upgrade/migration steps without filler. Write the channel-appropriate announcement for a release without churn. Different surfaces need different shapes: a changelog entry is not a blog post is not a social card. The bar is: a reader of the chosen surface can decide in under 30 seconds whether this release affects them, and if so what to do.
