feat(release-notes): add user-facing release notes skill and link UI to fazer.ai (#261)

- Document bilingual (pt-BR + en) user-notes blocks required in every
  GitHub release body, rendered on fazer.ai/chatwoot-release-notes
- Add .claude/skills/release-notes skill so the agent drafts and
  validates the blocks before any release create/edit/backfill, with
  reference from CLAUDE.md (AGENTS.md)
- Point the admin "new version available" banner and the profile-menu
  Changelog link at fazer.ai/chatwoot-release-notes
- Stop tracking .claude/settings.json (per-developer config moves to
  settings.local.json); ignore only .claude/**/*.local.* so the
  release-notes skill ships with the repo

description: Use this skill whenever you are about to cut, edit, or backfill a GitHub release for fazer-ai/chatwoot. Generates the bilingual user-notes blocks (pt-BR + en) embedded in the release body for non-technical end users. Trigger before calling `gh release create`, `gh release edit`, or any flow that touches a release body on this repo (including the `release` skill from fazer-ai-tools and any retroactive backfill of historical releases).

# Release Notes (user-facing)
Every release cut from `fazer-ai/chatwoot` must embed bilingual user-notes blocks in the release body, written for non-technical end users (operators, admins, superadmins). Do not put implementation detail in these blocks.
## Required blocks (bilingual, both mandatory)
```markdown
<!-- user-notes:pt-BR:start -->
... markdown em português ...
<!-- user-notes:pt-BR:end -->
<!-- user-notes:en:start -->
... markdown in english ...
<!-- user-notes:en:end -->
```
The two versions must be **equivalent in content**, written naturally in each language. They are **not** literal translations:
- pt-BR: "Agora você pode arrastar conversas entre colunas mais rápido."
- en: "Drag conversations between columns faster."
If you cannot write a real equivalent in one of the locales, write a **generic line in both** instead of leaving one missing or pasting raw Google Translate output.
## Audience and tone
Write for an **end user, not a developer**. Readers do not read code, do not know what a PR is, and do not care about refactors.
- **Present tense, active voice.** "Agora você pode reordenar etiquetas" / "You can now reorder labels". Not "Adicionada a possibilidade de…" / "Added the ability to…".
- **Lead with benefit, not implementation.** "Carregamento mais rápido em conexões lentas" / "Faster loading on slow connections" beats "Preload de componentes de rota no módulo internal-chat".
- **Plain language.** No jargon, no internal codenames, no function/file/library/module names.
- **No PR numbers, commit hashes, `#1234` references, or links to internal issues.**
- **Group by theme**, not by PR. Use these headers (omit empty ones, but keep the same set in both locales):
| pt-BR | en | When to use |
| ----------------- | --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| `### ✨ Novidades` | `### ✨ What's new` | New user-visible features |
| `### ⚡ Melhorias` | `### ⚡ Improvements` | Refinements to existing features (perf, UX, polish) |
| `### 🐛 Correções` | `### 🐛 Fixes` | Bugs the user might have noticed |
## Format inside each block
```markdown
<!-- user-notes:pt-BR:start -->
### ✨ Novidades
- **Chat interno entre agentes.** Sua equipe agora troca mensagens diretamente dentro do Chatwoot, sem precisar de outra ferramenta.
### ⚡ Melhorias
- **Navegação mais rápida em conexões lentas.** A troca entre conversas ficou mais responsiva.
### 🐛 Correções
- **Assinaturas de caixas de entrada.** Administradores conseguem gerenciar assinaturas mesmo sem participar da caixa.
<!-- user-notes:pt-BR:end -->
<!-- user-notes:en:start -->
### ✨ What's new
- **Internal agent chat.** Your team can now message each other right inside Chatwoot, no extra tool needed.
### ⚡ Improvements
- **Faster navigation on slow connections.** Switching between conversations feels more responsive.
### 🐛 Fixes
- **Inbox signatures.** Admins can manage signatures without having to be a member of the inbox.
<!-- user-notes:en:end -->
```
Bold the change name, then a single short sentence describing the user benefit. Keep each item to 1 or 2 lines.
If a release has nothing user-visible, write a single generic line in both locales rather than dumping a PR list:
```markdown
<!-- user-notes:pt-BR:start -->
Correções de bugs e melhorias internas.
<!-- user-notes:pt-BR:end -->
<!-- user-notes:en:start -->
Bug fixes and internal improvements.
<!-- user-notes:en:end -->
```
## Quality checklist (run before publishing)
Run this checklist on **both** locale blocks:
- [ ] Both `pt-BR` and `en` blocks are present, with the exact tag spelling shown above.
- [ ] Both blocks contain equivalent content (same items, same order, same themes), written naturally in each language. Not a literal translation.
- [ ] Headers use the localized header table above. Omit empty themes consistently across locales.
- [ ] Every item leads with a user benefit, not an implementation detail.
- [ ] No PR numbers, commit hashes, file paths, function names, library names, or internal module names.
- [ ] No mention of internal initiatives, customers, deals, roadmap, or anything that would not make sense to an external operator.
- [ ] Each item is understandable by someone who has never opened the codebase.
- [ ] Items are present-tense, benefit-led, 1 to 2 lines.
- [ ] Empty release: one generic line in both locales, never an empty block, never one block missing.
## Look at examples first
Before drafting, read the user-notes blocks from recent releases in this repo to match tone:
```bash
gh release list --limit 5
gh release view <tag> --json body -q .body
```
The references behind this style are **Linear**, **Stripe**, **Notion**, and **Vercel** changelogs: short, benefit-led, grouped by theme, with the user as the protagonist.
## Drafting workflow
When invoked for a release (new or backfill):
1. Read the current release body via `gh release view <tag> --json body -q .body` (or the source commits via `git log <prev-tag>..<tag> --oneline`) to understand what shipped.
2. Filter the changes through "would a non-technical operator notice or care about this?". Drop everything that fails the filter.
3. Group what survived into Novidades / Melhorias / Correções.
4. Draft the **pt-BR** block first. Write naturally, lead with benefit.
5. Draft the **en** block. Equivalent content, natural English, not a word-for-word translation.
6. Run the quality checklist on both blocks.
7. Show the proposed blocks to the user for approval **before** editing the release.
8. Only after approval, edit the release with `gh release edit <tag> --notes-file <file>` (preserve any existing technical body content above/below the blocks if present, or replace as the user instructs).

- The setup workflow in `.codex/environments/environment.toml` should dynamically generate per-worktree DB/port values (Rails, Vite, Redis DB index) to avoid collisions.
- Start each worktree with its own Overmind socket/title so multiple instances can run at the same time.
## Release Notes
- Every GitHub release cut from this repo must include the bilingual `user-notes` blocks (pt-BR + en) in the release body, written for non-technical end users.
- Before running `gh release create`, `gh release edit`, the `release` skill from `fazer-ai-tools`, or any flow that touches a release body (including retroactive backfills), invoke the `release-notes` skill at `.claude/skills/release-notes/SKILL.md` to draft and validate the blocks.
