Your README shows build status and coverage — why not release-notes quality? Free live changelog-grade badge: one line of markdown, re-checked daily, links to the full lint report. Works for any public GitHub/GitLab/Codeberg repo, no signup: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/lint
Dark-mode gallery titled 'Live changelog-grade badges' showing six well-known open-source repos with their live Wakelog changelog grade badges: prettier/prettier A 100/100, honojs/hono A 92/100, sveltejs/svelte B 84/100, vuejs/core B 84/100, axios/axios A 100/100, expressjs/express B 76/100. Below, the one-line markdown snippet to embed a badge, with a caption noting badges are re-checked daily and link to the full lint report.

We wrote down everything we know about shipping changes: 100 free guides on changelogs & release notes — writing them, automating them in CI, semver vs calver, monorepos, migrating off hosted tools, telling if anyone reads them. No signup, no paywall.

Ship-day workflow: wakelog post "v2.1" --draft in CI, then wakelog publish 162 when the rollout is green — the post stays hidden until you say so. Or schedule it with --at and it publishes itself (and pings your Discord/Slack). Docs: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/docs
Terminal transcript: 'wakelog post v1.0 --draft' creates hidden post id 162 (RSS shows 0 entries), 'wakelog publish 162' makes it live (RSS shows 1 entry), then 'wakelog post v1.1 --at 2026-09-22T14:00Z' schedules post id 163 for automatic publish.

Don't put your account API token in CI. Every Wakelog project can issue a scoped CI token: it can post to that one changelog — no reads, no deletes, no other projects. Leak it → worst case is a spam post you delete. Rotate in one click.

https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/docs#ci-tokens
Terminal session demonstrating Wakelog's scoped CI tokens: a curl POST with a wlp_ token creates a changelog post (HTTP 201); the same token gets HTTP 401 trying to DELETE the post, and HTTP 403 trying to post to a different project (this CI token is scoped to project 'relay', not 'relay-docs'). Comments note the worst case of a leak is one spam post, and tokens rotate in one click.

Your AI agent can keep its own changelog. Point an MCP client at Wakelog and it gets signup, create_project and create_post as native tools — no email, no CAPTCHA, no human in the loop.

Real session: 3 tool calls → live public page + RSS + badge.

https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/docs#mcp
Terminal showing an MCP JSON-RPC session against Wakelog: tools/list returns 6 tools, then signup, create_project and create_post calls each shown with their JSON results, ending with the live public changelog URL for the new project.

Your README is the most-read page you ship. Wakelog gives it a live changelog badge — time since your last release — plus a grade badge for any public repo's release notes, re-checked daily. One line of markdown, updates itself. https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/badge
Dark GitHub-style README titled wakelog with two live shields-style badges inline: 'changelog | shipped yesterday' and 'changelog grade | A - 92/100', followed by the one-line markdown snippet that embeds them.

One link, five free changelog tools: preview any CHANGELOG.md as a hosted page, lint it (graded A–F), turn a raw git log into release notes, build live README badges, and subscribe to any changelog as RSS. No signup for any of them: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/tools
Wakelog's free changelog tools page listing five tools with short descriptions: Instant changelog preview, Changelog linter (graded A to F), Release notes generator, Badge playground, and Changelog watcher (RSS for any changelog). Each has a button; header notes all tools are free and need no signup.

No lock-in, ever: every Wakelog changelog exports back to plain CHANGELOG.md — one URL, no auth, no export button to hunt for. JSON Feed too. Import parses the same format, so moving in is reversible by design. Try it on ours: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/p/wakelog/changelog.md
Terminal showing curl -s https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/p/wakelog/changelog.md returning a plain-markdown CHANGELOG: title 'Wakelog — Changelog', an export note, and two dated entries with markdown headings. A closing comment says every project gets this plus a JSON Feed, with no auth and a lossless import round-trip.

Switching from Headway or LaunchNotes? Their export button may be missing — their RSS feed isn't. Wakelog imports any RSS/Atom feed: titles, original dates, HTML converted to markdown.

Proof: Headway's own changelog, previewed on Wakelog. No signup: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/try
Wakelog changelog preview page showing Headway's own changelog imported via its RSS feed: 20 entries found, first 15 shown. Top banner explains this is a no-signup preview; below it, the post 'Twitter integration updates' from Jun 14 2023 renders with headings, bold, italics and bullet lists.

Your release script is now also your changelog.

git tag v1.4.0 && wakelog post --from-git

Title = the tag on HEAD, body = your commits since the last tag — published straight to your public changelog page + RSS. One curl to install, free: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev
Terminal screenshot: 'curl -fsSL https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/install.sh | sh' installs the wakelog CLI; then 'git tag v1.4.0' and 'wakelog post --from-git' prints 'Shipped' with the URL of the new changelog post. Comments explain the title comes from the tag on HEAD and the body from commits since v1.3.0, listed as bullets, published to the public changelog page and RSS.

Already have a CHANGELOG.md? Paste it into Wakelog and the whole history imports — keepachangelog, axios-style, express-style all parse. No file? A bare GitHub/GitLab/Codeberg repo URL imports your published Releases instead. One paste, hosted changelog. https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev
A hosted changelog page for a project called Nimbus CLI showing eight release entries imported from a pasted CHANGELOG.md, from version 2.3.0 in August 2026 back to 1.8.0 in November 2025, each with Added, Changed and Fixed sections and original release dates preserved.

Publish a GitHub Release and your changelog updates itself. Point a release webhook at your Wakelog project (payload URL + secret, one-time setup) and every published release becomes a post — title, tag, markdown body, link back to the release. https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/docs
A hosted changelog page for a project called Acme App. The latest entry, created automatically from a GitHub Release webhook, is titled v1.4.0 — Saved views and faster search, tagged RELEASE, dated Sep 3 2026, with Added, Changed and Fixed sections and a link reading View release on GitHub.

Put your changelog under test. `wakelog lint --min-grade B` grades CHANGELOG.md on a dozen practices — vague titles, commit dumps, “wip” filler, unflagged breaking changes — and exits 1 when it slips. Also a no-auth JSON API for one-curl CI checks. https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/docs
Terminal showing wakelog lint --min-grade B run twice. First run: changelog grade C, 67 out of 100, FAIL entries have dates, WARN written for readers not a commit dump; wakelog exits 1 and the build fails. After fixing dates and rewriting the entry for humans, second run: grade A, 100 out of 100, exit 0, build passes.

Is your CHANGELOG.md any good? Our free linter grades it on 8 practices — dates, ordering, vague titles, commit dumps, unflagged breaking changes — and links the guide fixing each finding. Paste a file or repo URL, no signup: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/lint

Even express doesn't get an A.
Wakelog lint report for express: grade C, 68 out of 100, "Needs work", 100 changelog entries checked against 8 practices. Check list shows passes for recognizable entries and dates, warnings for out-of-order entries, raw commit-log dumps, and unflagged breaking changes.

Your favorite project's changelog has no RSS feed? Now it does. Point our free watcher at any GitHub/GitLab/Codeberg repo, a raw CHANGELOG.md, or a hosted changelog page and get a subscribable RSS/JSON feed, re-checked every few hours. No signup: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/watch
Wakelog changelog watcher result page titled "Watching: tailwindcss". It says 30 entries found, shows RSS and JSON Feed URLs with copy buttons, and lists the latest entries: v4.3.3 (2026-07-16) down through v4.2.1 (2026-02-23).

Honest question for people who ship: do you write real release notes, or does the changelog just say "bug fixes and improvements"?

We graded 100 big OSS changelogs — median 92/100. The big projects do the work: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/lint/gallery

What keeps yours honest?

Your AI agent can use Wakelog end-to-end over plain HTTP: sign up, create a project, post a changelog — 3 curls, no email, no CAPTCHA, no browser.

Machine guide: https://wakelog.wakelog.workers.dev/llms.txt (MCP server included). Agents are welcome as users.
Terminal window showing three curl commands: 1) POST /api/v1/signup returning an API token, 2) POST /api/v1/projects creating a project, 3) POST /api/v1/my-app/posts publishing a changelog entry — ending with the live public page URL.

Curious what your changelog would look like as a hosted page?

Paste your CHANGELOG.md — or just drop in a GitHub/GitLab/Codeberg repo URL and we'll pull its releases — for an instant preview. Nothing saved, no signup.

The thing people pay Headway for, free: one script tag gives your app a "what's new" bell with an unread badge + popover changelog.

No cookies, no tracking — the seen-marker lives in the visitor's own localStorage.
