+# Draft Changelog Execution
+
+## Input
+Project path (or run from project root)
+
+## Step 1: Identify Current State
+- Get the latest released tag
+- Get current version
+- Verify there are commits since the last release
+
+## Step 2: Launch Explore Agent
+
+Use `thoroughness: "very thorough"` to analyze all changes since the last release tag.
+
+**Key: For each merge commit, look up the merged PR/issue that was closed.**
+- Use `gh pr view` or git commit body to find the PR number
+- Read the PR description and comments to understand full context
+- Don't rely solely on commit merge messages - they lack context
+
+**Analyze:**
+
+1. **All merges/commits** since the last tag
+2. **For each merge, read the original PR/issue** that was closed
+3. **Files changed** with statistics
+4. **Categorize changes:**
+   - 🎁 **Features** - New functionality, new agents, new workflows
+   - 🐛 **Bug Fixes** - Fixed bugs, corrected issues
+   - ♻️ **Refactoring** - Code improvements, reorganization
+   - 📚 **Documentation** - Docs updates, README changes
+   - 🔧 **Maintenance** - Dependency updates, tooling, infrastructure
+   - 💥 **Breaking Changes** - Changes that may affect users
+
+**Provide:**
+- Comprehensive summary of ALL changes with PR context
+- Categorization of each change
+- Identification of breaking changes
+- Significance assessment (major/minor/trivial)
+
+## Step 3: Generate Draft Changelog
+
+Format:
+```markdown
+## v0.X.X - [Date]
+
+* [Change 1 - categorized by type]
+* [Change 2]
+```
+
+Guidelines:
+- Present tense ("Fix bug" not "Fixed bug")
+- Most significant changes first
+- Group related changes
+- Clear, concise language
+- For breaking changes, clearly indicate impact
+
+## Step 4: Present Draft
+
+Show the draft with current version, last tag, commit count, and options to edit/retry.

+You are analyzing a batch of GitHub issues for deep understanding and triage.
+
+**YOUR TASK:**
+Read the issues in your batch and provide DEEP analysis:
+
+1. **For EACH issue, analyze:**
+   - What is this ACTUALLY about? (beyond keywords)
+   - What component/system does it affect?
+   - What's the impact and severity?
+   - Is it a bug, feature request, or something else?
+   - What specific theme does it belong to?
+
+2. **PRIORITY ASSESSMENT:**
+   - CRITICAL: Blocks users, security issues, data loss, broken installers
+   - HIGH: Major functionality broken, important features missing
+   - MEDIUM: Workarounds available, minor bugs, nice-to-have features
+   - LOW: Edge cases, cosmetic issues, questions
+
+3. **RELATIONSHIPS:**
+   - Duplicates: Near-identical issues about the same problem
+   - Related: Issues connected by theme or root cause
+   - Dependencies: One issue blocks or requires another
+
+**YOUR BATCH:**
+[Paste the batch of issues here - each with number, title, body, labels]
+
+**OUTPUT FORMAT (JSON only, no markdown):**
+{
+  "issues": [
+    {
+      "number": 123,
+      "title": "issue title",

+# GitHub Issue Triage with AI Analysis
+
+**CRITICAL RULES:**
+- NEVER include time or effort estimates in output or recommendations
+- Focus on WHAT needs to be done, not HOW LONG it takes
+- Use Bash tool with gh CLI for all GitHub operations
+
+## Execution
+
+### Step 1: Fetch Issues
+Use `gh issue list --json number,title,body,labels` to fetch all open issues.
+
+### Step 2: Batch Creation
+Split issues into batches of ~10 issues each for parallel analysis.
+
+### Step 3: Parallel Agent Analysis
+For EACH batch, use the Task tool with `subagent_type=general-purpose` to launch an agent with prompt from `prompts/agent-prompt.md`
+
+### Step 4: Consolidate & Generate Report
+After all agents complete, create a comprehensive markdown report saved to `_bmad-output/triage-reports/triage-YYYY-MM-DD.md`
+
+## Report Format
+
+### Executive Summary
+- Total issues analyzed
+- Issue count by priority (CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW)
+- Major themes discovered
+- Top 5 critical issues requiring immediate attention
+
+### Critical Issues (CRITICAL Priority)
+For each CRITICAL issue:
+- **#123 - [Issue Title](url)**
+- **What it's about:** [Deep understanding]
+- **Affected:** [Components]
+- **Why Critical:** [Rationale]
+- **Suggested Action:** [Specific action]
+
+### High Priority Issues (HIGH Priority)
+Same format as Critical, grouped by theme.
+
+### Theme Clusters
+For each major theme:
+- **Theme Name** (N issues)
+- **What connects these:** [Pattern]
+- **Root cause:** [If identifiable]
+- **Consolidated actions:** [Bulk actions if applicable]
+- **Issues:** #123, #456, #789
+
+### Relationships & Dependencies
+- **Duplicates:** List pairs with `gh issue close` commands
+- **Related Issues:** Groups of related issues
+- **Dependencies:** Blocking relationships
+
+### Cross-Repo Issues
+Issues that should be migrated to other repositories.
+
+For each, provide:
+```
+gh issue close XXX --repo CURRENT_REPO --comment "This issue belongs in REPO. Please report at https://github.com/TARGET_REPO/issues/new"
+```
+
+### Cleanup Candidates
+- **v4-related:** Deprecated version issues with close commands
+- **Stale:** No activity >30 days
+- **Low priority + old:** Low priority issues >60 days old
+
+### Actionable Next Steps
+Specific, prioritized actions:
+1. [CRITICAL] Fix broken installer - affects all new users
+2. [HIGH] Resolve Windows path escaping issues
+3. [HIGH] Address workflow integration bugs
+etc.
+
+Include `gh` commands where applicable for bulk actions.
