Release Notes
Release notes are workspace documents with the Release Note type. Use them when you want a clear narrative of shipped work for customers, stakeholders, or your own team.
Create and edit release notes in Documents. There is no separate Release Notes sidebar item.
Create a release note
Open Documents in the sidebar and create a new document. Set the type to Release Note, write the note in Markdown, and save.
Agents and automations can create the same typed document with MCP create-document using type release_note (aliases: release note, release notes, document_type_release_note).
Share
Copy the note as Markdown or send it to another tool, such as Slack, a docs site, email, or a changelog.
Pick the audience
Write a separate note per audience when the same work needs different framing:
| Audience | Emphasize |
|---|---|
| External | User-facing changes, improvements, and product value without internal implementation detail. |
| Internal | Implementation notes, resolved blockers, decisions, and next steps. |
| Stakeholders | Outcomes, risk, customer impact, and strategic progress. |
Get better release notes
Clear pull request descriptions and comments produce clearer notes. Captured work explains how completed work is collected. Use completed work lists and initiative briefs as sources when drafting.
