Diego Rodrigues de Sa e Souza 1ddb102a90 feat(release): changelog.d/ fragments — eliminate the CHANGELOG merge-storm cascade (#6783)
* feat(release): changelog.d/ fragments — kill the CHANGELOG-eat merge-storm cascade

Every PR used to edit the same top lines of CHANGELOG.md (its bullet), so in a
merge-storm each merge conflicted every sibling (CHANGELOG-eat / DIRTY cascade),
forcing a re-sync push + full CI re-run per PR per merge — O(N^2) CI runs.

A PR now adds ONE new file under changelog.d/{features|fixes|maintenance}/ with its
bullet; two PRs never touch the same file. scripts/release/aggregate-changelog.mjs
(npm run changelog:aggregate) folds fragments into the living section and deletes
them at release reconciliation. check:changelog-integrity (already wired in the
merge-integrity CI job — zero workflow change) now also validates fragment
well-formedness. This PR dogfoods the convention: its own entry is a fragment.

* chore(changelog): fragment filename matches PR number (#6783)

changelog.d/ — changelog fragments

A PR never edits CHANGELOG.md directly during the cycle. Instead it adds ONE new file here — its changelog entry as a fragment. Two PRs never touch the same file, so changelog merge conflicts (the "CHANGELOG-eat" cascade that forced a re-sync push + full CI re-run after every sibling merge) are structurally impossible.

Convention

Directory Aggregates under
features/ ### ✨ New Features
fixes/ ### 🐛 Bug Fixes
maintenance/ ### 📝 Maintenance
  • Filename: <PR-number>-<short-slug>.md (e.g. fixes/6700-dockerfile-better-sqlite3.md). The PR number prefix keeps aggregation order deterministic.
  • Content: the exact bullet line(s) that should land in CHANGELOG.md, starting with - . Multi-line (continuation) bullets are fine. Keep the repo's credit format: (#PR — thanks @user).
  • One fragment per PR (rarely more, e.g. a PR that both fixes and adds).

Example

changelog.d/fixes/6496-cloudflare-relay-worker-syntax.md:

- **fix(providers):** Cloudflare relay Worker deploys use Service Worker syntax with `body_part` metadata ([#6496](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/6496)) — thanks @SeaXen

Aggregation

The release captain (or /generate-release) folds all fragments into CHANGELOG.md and deletes them:

node scripts/release/aggregate-changelog.mjs            # write + delete fragments
node scripts/release/aggregate-changelog.mjs --dry-run  # preview only

Fragment well-formedness is enforced by npm run check:changelog-integrity (the same gate that guards against CHANGELOG-eat for legacy direct edits).
