SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? After updating plugins from the laicluse-agent-fieldkit marketplace, users need a quick way to see what changed without manually hunting down CHANGELOG files or triggering post-update broadcast sentinels. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Per-plugin changelog view: Pass a plugin name to print the latest CHANGELOG.md section for that installed plugin verbatim. - Marketplace-wide news: Run without arguments to see the latest MARKETPLACE-CHANGELOG.md section plus an index of installed plugins that ship their own changelogs. - Sentinel-safe reads: Reads CHANGELOG files directly via codex plugin list --json path resolution without modifying broadcast sentinels. - Use Case: After updating the git-discipline plugin, run the whats-new command with git-discipline to see exactly what changed in the newest release. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to show what's new in the laicluse-agent-fieldkit marketplace, optionally naming a specific plugin to drill into its changelog.

Frequently Asked Questions about whats-new

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I see what changed in a Codex plugin after updating?▼

Invoke the whats-new command with the plugin name, for example $whats-new git-discipline. It resolves the install path via codex plugin list --json and prints the latest CHANGELOG.md section verbatim.

How do I view marketplace-wide release notes for laicluse-agent-fieldkit?▼

Run whats-new with no arguments. It prints the latest MARKETPLACE-CHANGELOG.md section followed by a one-line index of installed plugins that ship their own per-plugin changelogs.

Does whats-new modify broadcast sentinel files?▼

No. The skill reads CHANGELOG files directly and never touches sentinels under ~/.laicluse/<plugin>/broadcasts/. It is an explicit, side-effect-free way to read release news.

Why does whats-new say a plugin has no CHANGELOG support?▼

The skill checks for the bin/check-broadcast helper as the adoption signal for per-plugin changelog support. If that helper or CHANGELOG.md is missing, it reports that the plugin has not adopted changelog support yet.

What happens if the plugin is not installed in Codex?▼

The skill queries codex plugin list --json and exits gracefully with a message stating the plugin is not installed or enabled, rather than guessing cache paths.
