refactor: Use Claude Code OAuth token for GitHub Action, keep API key for local testing

Changes the GitHub Actions workflow to use Claude Code OAuth authentication (consistent with claude-review workflow) while keeping direct API key authentication for local testing.

## Changes

### GitHub Actions Workflow
- **Before**: Direct API calls with `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
- **After**: Uses `anthropics/claude-code-action@beta` with `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN`

### Benefits
-  Consistent authentication with existing `claude-review` workflow
-  Better GitHub integration through Claude Code Action
-  No additional API costs (included in Claude Code subscription)
-  Same secret (`CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN`) works for both workflows

### Local Testing
- **Unchanged**: Still uses `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` for direct API calls
- Simple, fast iteration during development
- No dependency on Claude Code Action locally

## Implementation Details

The workflow now:
1. Prepares all release context in a `release-context.md` file
2. Uses Claude Code Action to read the context and generate release notes
3. Writes output to `release_notes.md`
4. Validates the generated file before creating/updating the release

## Documentation Updates
- Updated setup instructions to use `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN`
- Added section explaining authentication differences
- Clarified cost implications (OAuth has no additional costs)
- Notes that same token works for both `claude-review` and release notes workflows

# AI-Generated Release Notes Setup
This repository uses Claude AI to automatically generate comprehensive release notes when you create a new release.
## How It Works
The workflow triggers when:
- You push a new tag (e.g., `v1.0.0`)
- You create a GitHub release
- You manually trigger it via workflow dispatch
Claude AI analyzes:
- Commit messages since the last release
- Merged pull requests
- File changes by component (frontend, backend, docs)
- Contributors
Then generates structured release notes with:
- Overview and key changes
- Feature additions, improvements, and bug fixes
- Technical changes by component
- Statistics and contributor acknowledgments
- Breaking changes (important for beta!)
## Testing Locally First (Recommended!)
Before setting up the GitHub Action, you can test the release notes generation locally:
### Prerequisites
```bash
# Install required tools (if not already installed)
sudo apt install jq curl # Linux
# or
brew install jq curl # macOS
# Install GitHub CLI (optional, for PR detection)
# See: https://github.com/cli/cli#installation
```
### Run Local Test
```bash
# 1. Export your Anthropic API key
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-api03-..."
# 2. Run the test script
# Compare origin/stable vs main branches (default - shows unreleased changes)
./.github/test-release-notes.sh
# Or specify branches explicitly (automatically handles remote branches)
./.github/test-release-notes.sh stable main # Will use origin/stable if no local stable
./.github/test-release-notes.sh origin/stable main # Explicit remote branch
# Or use range syntax
./.github/test-release-notes.sh stable..main
# Or compare tags for a release
./.github/test-release-notes.sh v1.0.0 v2.0.0
# Or test a single tag (compares with previous tag)
./.github/test-release-notes.sh v0.1.0
```
### What the Local Test Does
1. **Gathers git data**: Commits, file changes, and PRs (if gh CLI available)
2. **Calls Claude API**: Generates release notes using the same prompt as the workflow
3. **Saves output**: Creates `release-notes-<tag>.md` in current directory
4. **Shows preview**: Displays the generated notes in your terminal
### Example Output
```bash
$ ./.github/test-release-notes.sh v0.2.0

### Testing Different Scenarios
```bash
# 🔥 MOST COMMON: See what's new in main vs stable (unreleased changes)
./.github/test-release-notes.sh
# Output: release-notes-origin-stable..main.md
# Or with explicit arguments
./.github/test-release-notes.sh stable main
# Output: release-notes-origin-stable..main.md (auto-resolves to origin/stable)
# Test your first release (compares with initial commit)
./.github/test-release-notes.sh v0.1.0
# Test a release between two specific tags
./.github/test-release-notes.sh v1.0.0 v2.0.0
# Test what would be in next release (current branch vs stable)
git checkout main
./.github/test-release-notes.sh stable main
```
### Typical Workflow: Stable vs Main
For projects with separate `stable` (production) and `main` (development) branches:
```bash
# 1. See what's ready to release (compare branches)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
./.github/test-release-notes.sh stable main
# Or explicitly use remote branch: ./.github/test-release-notes.sh origin/stable main
# 2. Review the generated notes
cat release-notes-origin-stable..main.md
# 3. When ready to release, fetch latest and merge main to stable
git fetch origin
git checkout -b stable origin/stable # Create local tracking branch if needed
git merge main
git push origin stable
# 4. Create a release tag
git tag v1.0.0
git push origin v1.0.0
# 5. The GitHub Action will automatically generate release notes
# (You can also manually create the release with the generated notes)
gh release create v1.0.0 --title "Release v1.0.0" --notes-file release-notes-origin-stable..main.md
```
## Setup Instructions
### 1. Create Anthropic API Key
1. Go to [Anthropic Console](https://console.anthropic.com/)
2. Create a new API key
3. Copy the key (starts with `sk-ant-...`)
### 2. Add GitHub Secret
1. Go to your repository's Settings
2. Navigate to **Secrets and variables****Actions**
3. Click **New repository secret**
4. Name: `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
5. Value: Paste your Anthropic API key
6. Click **Add secret**
### 3. Test the Workflow
#### Option A: Create a Release via GitHub UI
1. Go to **Releases** in your repository
2. Click **Draft a new release**
3. Choose or create a tag (e.g., `v0.1.0`)
4. Click **Publish release**
5. The workflow will automatically run and update the release notes
#### Option B: Push a Tag via Git
```bash
# Create and push a new tag
git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0
# The workflow will automatically create a release with AI-generated notes
```
#### Option C: Manual Trigger
1. Go to **Actions** tab
2. Select "AI-Generated Release Notes" workflow
3. Click **Run workflow**
4. Enter the tag name (e.g., `v0.1.0`)
5. Click **Run workflow**
## Usage Examples
### Creating Your First Release
```bash
# Tag your current state
git tag v0.1.0-beta
# Push the tag
git push origin v0.1.0-beta
# Check Actions tab - release notes will be generated automatically
```
### Creating Subsequent Releases
```bash
# Make your changes and commits
git add .
git commit -m "feat: Add AI-powered search feature"
git push
# When ready to release
git tag v0.2.0-beta
git push origin v0.2.0-beta
# Release notes will compare v0.2.0-beta with v0.1.0-beta
```
## What Gets Generated
The AI generates release notes in this structure:
```markdown
# 🚀 Release v0.2.0

- Full Changelog: [link]
```
## Customization
### Modify the Prompt
Edit `.github/workflows/release-notes.yml` and change the prompt in the "Generate release notes with Claude" step to adjust:
- Tone and style
- Structure
- Focus areas
- Level of detail
### Change Claude Model
In the workflow file, you can change the model:
```yaml
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514" # Latest Sonnet
# or
"model": "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219" # Sonnet 3.7
# or
"model": "claude-opus-4-20250514" # Opus 4 (more detailed)
```
### Adjust Token Limit
Increase `max_tokens` for longer release notes:
```yaml
"max_tokens": 4096 # Default
# or
"max_tokens": 8192 # For more detailed notes
```
## Troubleshooting
### Workflow Fails with "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY not found"
- Ensure you've added the secret in repository settings
- Secret name must be exactly `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
- Secret must be a valid Anthropic API key
### Empty or Incomplete Release Notes
- Check if commits exist between tags
- Verify git history is complete (workflow uses `fetch-depth: 0`)
- Check Actions logs for API errors
### API Rate Limits
- Anthropic has generous rate limits for API keys
- For very frequent releases, consider caching or batching
## Cost Estimation
Claude API pricing (as of 2025):
- Sonnet 4: ~$0.003 per release (assuming ~4K tokens)
- Each release generation costs less than a penny
For a project with monthly releases: ~$0.036/year
## Best Practices
### Write Good Commit Messages
The AI works better with clear commits:
```bash
# ✅ Good
git commit -m "feat: Add vector search with pgvector"
git commit -m "fix: Resolve race condition in crawling service"
git commit -m "docs: Update API documentation"
# ❌ Less helpful
git commit -m "updates"
git commit -m "fix stuff"
git commit -m "wip"
```
### Use Conventional Commits
The workflow benefits from conventional commit format:
- `feat:` - New features
- `fix:` - Bug fixes
- `docs:` - Documentation
- `refactor:` - Code refactoring
- `test:` - Tests
- `chore:` - Maintenance
### Tag Semantically
Use semantic versioning:
- `v1.0.0` - Major release
- `v1.1.0` - Minor release (new features)
- `v1.1.1` - Patch release (bug fixes)
- `v0.1.0-beta` - Beta releases
## Manual Editing
You can always edit the generated release notes:
1. Go to the release page
2. Click **Edit release**
3. Modify the notes as needed
4. Click **Update release**
## Workflow Outputs
The workflow provides:
- Updated GitHub release with AI-generated notes
- Artifact with release notes (kept for 90 days)
- Comments on related PRs linking to the release
- Summary in Actions tab
## Advanced: Using with Pre-releases
```bash
# Create a pre-release
git tag v0.2.0-rc.1
git push origin v0.2.0-rc.1
# Mark as pre-release in GitHub UI or via gh CLI
gh release create v0.2.0-rc.1 --prerelease
```
## Integration with Other Tools
### Notify Slack/Discord
Add a notification step after release creation:
```yaml
- name: Notify team
run: |
curl -X POST YOUR_WEBHOOK_URL \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"text":"Release ${{ steps.get_tag.outputs.tag }} published!"}'
```
### Update Changelog File
Append to CHANGELOG.md:
```yaml
- name: Update changelog
run: |
cat release_notes.md >> CHANGELOG.md
git add CHANGELOG.md
git commit -m "docs: Update changelog for ${{ steps.get_tag.outputs.tag }}"
git push
```
## Support
If you encounter issues:
1. Check the workflow logs in Actions tab
2. Verify your API key is valid
3. Ensure git history is available
4. Open an issue with workflow logs attached

```
## Setup Instructions
### 1. Get Claude Code OAuth Token
The GitHub Action uses Claude Code OAuth token (same as the `claude-review` workflow):
1. Go to [Claude Code OAuth Setup](https://docs.anthropic.com/claude-code/oauth)
2. Follow the instructions to get your OAuth token
3. Copy the token
### 2. Add GitHub Secret
1. Go to your repository's Settings
2. Navigate to **Secrets and variables****Actions**
3. Click **New repository secret**
4. Name: `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN`
5. Value: Paste your Claude Code OAuth token
6. Click **Add secret**
> **Note:** If you already have `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` set up for `claude-review` workflow, you're all set! The same token is used for both workflows.
### 3. (Optional) Get Anthropic API Key for Local Testing
For local testing, you'll need an API key:
1. Go to [Anthropic Console](https://console.anthropic.com/)
2. Create a new API key
3. Copy the key (starts with `sk-ant-...`)
4. Export it: `export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."`
> **Note:** The GitHub Action uses OAuth token, but local testing uses API key for simplicity.
### 4. Test the Workflow
#### Option A: Create a Release via GitHub UI
1. Go to **Releases** in your repository
2. Click **Draft a new release**
3. Choose or create a tag (e.g., `v0.1.0`)
4. Click **Publish release**
5. The workflow will automatically run and update the release notes
#### Option B: Push a Tag via Git
```bash
# Create and push a new tag
git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0
# The workflow will automatically create a release with AI-generated notes
```
#### Option C: Manual Trigger
1. Go to **Actions** tab
2. Select "AI-Generated Release Notes" workflow
3. Click **Run workflow**
4. Enter the tag name (e.g., `v0.1.0`)
5. Click **Run workflow**
## Usage Examples
### Creating Your First Release
```bash
# Tag your current state
git tag v0.1.0-beta
# Push the tag
git push origin v0.1.0-beta
# Check Actions tab - release notes will be generated automatically
```
### Creating Subsequent Releases
```bash
# Make your changes and commits
git add .
git commit -m "feat: Add AI-powered search feature"
git push
# When ready to release
git tag v0.2.0-beta
git push origin v0.2.0-beta
# Release notes will compare v0.2.0-beta with v0.1.0-beta
```

## Customization
### Modify the Prompt
Edit `.github/workflows/release-notes.yml` and change the prompt in the "Generate release notes with Claude" step to adjust:
- Tone and style
- Structure
- Focus areas
- Level of detail
### Change Claude Model
In the workflow file, you can change the model:
```yaml
"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514" # Latest Sonnet
# or
"model": "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219" # Sonnet 3.7
# or
"model": "claude-opus-4-20250514" # Opus 4 (more detailed)
```
### Adjust Token Limit
Increase `max_tokens` for longer release notes:
```yaml
"max_tokens": 4096 # Default
# or
"max_tokens": 8192 # For more detailed notes
```
## Troubleshooting
### Workflow Fails with "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY not found"
- Ensure you've added the secret in repository settings
- Secret name must be exactly `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
- Secret must be a valid Anthropic API key
### Empty or Incomplete Release Notes
- Check if commits exist between tags
- Verify git history is complete (workflow uses `fetch-depth: 0`)
- Check Actions logs for API errors
### API Rate Limits
- Anthropic has generous rate limits for API keys
- For very frequent releases, consider caching or batching
## Authentication: GitHub Action vs Local Testing
### GitHub Action (Claude Code OAuth)
- Uses `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` secret
- Same authentication as `claude-review` workflow
- Integrated with GitHub through Claude Code Action
- No direct API costs (usage included with Claude Code)
### Local Testing (API Key)
- Uses `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` environment variable
- Direct API calls to Claude
- Simpler for local testing and debugging
- Cost: ~$0.003 per release (less than a penny)
### Why Two Methods?
- **GitHub Action**: Uses Claude Code Action for better GitHub integration and consistency with other workflows
- **Local Testing**: Uses direct API for simplicity and faster iteration during development
## Cost Estimation
### Local Testing (API Key)
Claude API pricing (as of 2025):
- Sonnet 4: ~$0.003 per release (assuming ~4K tokens)
- Each release generation costs less than a penny
- For a project with monthly releases: ~$0.036/year
### GitHub Action (OAuth Token)
- No additional costs beyond your Claude Code subscription
- Usage included in Claude Code plan
## Best Practices
### Write Good Commit Messages
The AI works better with clear commits:
