Developer Builds AI Agent in CI Pipeline to Automate Multi-Repo Release Notes

A developer at Entire automated the company's weekly release notes, called Dispatches, by integrating an AI agent named Goose into a GitHub Actions CI pipeline. The task proved far more complex than a similar project built at Block, where a single repository with clean release tags made automation straightforward. Entire's Dispatches span multiple projects with different deployment cadences, feature flags, and mixed public-private visibility, making it difficult to determine which changes were safe to announce. The developer iterated through several approaches, eventually shifting from release-tag-based triggers to a time-window method using the previous Dispatch's publication date to avoid duplicating entries. The pipeline was designed not just to surface what changed, but to assess whether each change had fully shipped, was stable, and was appropriate for public communication.
