Replit Agent
Best for: Zero-setup build + host
An agent that builds and hosts the app in one place. Nothing to install, which is the whole point.

Keep docs and changelogs up to date automatically
“Our README and release notes are always out of date.”
Agents can read merged changes or closed tickets and draft docs updates and changelogs. Have a person approve before anything is published.
Fix it yourself in 3 steps
- Point the agent at what changed: merged pull requests or completed tickets for the period.
- Ask it to draft the changelog and list docs pages that no longer match the code.
- Review, edit for tone, and publish yourself.
Copy this prompt
Read the pull requests merged / tickets closed between [date] and [date]. Draft a changelog in plain language grouped by New, Improved, Fixed. Then list docs pages that look out of date, with the exact lines to change. Don't publish or email anything — stop for my review.
Fill in the [brackets]. Each prompt says when the AI should stop, so it doesn't wander off.
