Install the Release Changelog skill

Skills CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others)

npx skills add https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip --skill release-changelog

Claude Code, by hand (all projects)

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip.git /tmp/paperclip
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/paperclip/.agents/skills/release-changelog ~/.claude/skills/release-changelog

For one project only, copy the folder into .claude/skills/ in that project instead. The agent picks it up when a task matches its description.

What it costs your context

Agent Skills load in three steps. Tokens counted with the o200k tokenizer; your model's count will differ a little.

When	What loads	Cost
Every session	Name and description	37 tok
When the agent uses it	The SKILL.md instructions	3,037 tok
Only if opened	No bundled files	—

Until it is used, release-changelog costs about 37× less than the median MCP server we measured (1,362 tokens on every turn). Installing all 82 skills from paperclipai/paperclip would load 3,485 tokens of descriptions. Skills vs MCP study

Checks
