Maintain an Intent Changelog

This skill applies the Intent Changelog Specification . It keeps unreleased records complete, consumes changeset targets, validates and renders them with ACK, and enforces date-only publication. Canonical generation carries verified commit provenance through changesets into the correct release-unit records.

It does not turn Unreleased into an editorial inbox or use commit-derived Markdown as the canonical release ledger.
