Show HN: Buildnotes – Turn pull requests into "how it's made" posts (buildnotes.releases.sh)
I've been working on a way to take existing pull requests and turn them into "How It's Made" style content you can use outside of Github. buildnotes is an agent skill that reads a feature's issues, PRs, commits and reviews, then produces a post with real figures. Those include flow diagrams, annotated screenshots with notes in the margin, before/after comparisons, charts and real code.
Also supports videos + slides, so you can share them externally too.

I designed the evals to filter out noisy stuff (we don't need to hear about the play by play of tiny bugfixes), and most of that skill should carry over to a monolithic refactor.
Going to test further on the next iteration, thanks!
