Release Notes Writer

Translates technical commit history and PR descriptions into user-facing release notes with highlights, fixes, and an upgrade guide for breaking changes. Useful for product teams that want polished release comms without manual authoring. Engineering leads owning release comms, product managers wanting structured launch notes, founders posting release announcements to customers, open-source maintainers cutting weekly releases. The result is either a mechanical commit-log dump that nobody reads or nothing at all. Both outcomes erode trust: users do not know what changed, what broke, or what to do. A writer that takes the same inputs a thoughtful engineer would use — commit history, merged PRs, issue links — and composes user-facing notes in the formats the team actually needs closes the communication gap without consuming an engineer's afternoon.

CHANGELOG.md Entry

[3.2.0] — 2026-05-14

✨ Highlights

  • Dashboard load times reduced by up to 60% through server-side query batching (#PR-884)
  • New webhook retry policy with exponential backoff — no more silent failures on transient errors (#PR-901)
  • Native CSV and Excel export now available for all report types (#PR-876)

🚀 New Features

  • Report Export (CSV / Excel) — Any saved report can now be exported directly from the report toolbar. Supports filtered views and custom column ordering. (#PR-876)
  • Webhook Retry Policy — Failed webhook deliveries are now retried up to 5 times using exponential backoff (1s → 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s). Delivery status and retry history are visible in the new Webhooks log panel. (#PR-901)
  • API: POST /v2/goals/batch — Create or update up to 100 goals in a single request. See API docs. (#PR-912)

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where scorecard cells with null values incorrectly displayed as 0% instead of "—" (#PR-893)
  • Fixed date-range picker ignoring timezone offset for users in UTC+5:30 and UTC+5:45 (#PR-897)
  • Fixed PDF exports occasionally omitting the last page when the report exceeded 50 rows (#PR-888)
  • Resolved a race condition that could cause duplicate entries when saving a measure update rapidly (#PR-909)

⚠️ Breaking Changes

  • GET /v1/reports removed — This endpoint was deprecated in v2.8.0. All clients must migrate to GET /v2/reports. See the Upgrade Guide below. (#PR-919)
  • Webhook payload format updated — The triggered_at field is now an ISO 8601 string (was Unix timestamp). Consumers must update parsing logic. (#PR-901)

🔒 Security

  • Upgraded jsonwebtoken dependency to 9.0.2 to address CVE-2024-38997 (moderate severity, token validation edge case). (#PR-921)

🔧 Internal (not user-facing)

  • Migrated CI pipeline from CircleCI to GitHub Actions (#PR-878)
  • Refactored measure calculation engine for maintainability — no behavior change (#PR-882)

GitHub Release Body

ClearPoint Nexus v3.2.0 ships faster dashboards, smarter webhooks, and long-requested export options.

What's new:

  • ⚡ Dashboard loads up to 60% faster thanks to server-side query batching
  • 📤 Export any report to CSV or Excel directly from the report toolbar
  • 🔁 Webhook retries with exponential backoff — plus a new delivery log so you can see exactly what happened
  • 🚀 New POST /v2/goals/batch API endpoint for bulk goal management

Bug fixes: null scorecard values, timezone-offset date pickers, truncated PDF exports, and a measure-save race condition.

⚠️ Breaking changes in this release:

  1. GET /v1/reports has been removed (deprecated since v2.8.0) → migrate to GET /v2/reports
  2. Webhook triggered_at field is now ISO 8601 (was Unix timestamp)

Full upgrade steps: see UPGRADE.md or the release notes below.

🔒 Security patch included (CVE-2024-38997).


Upgrade Guide — Breaking Changes

1. GET /v1/reports Endpoint Removal

Who is affected: Any integration or script calling GET /v1/reports.

Why: This endpoint was deprecated in v2.8.0 and has now been removed.

Steps:

  1. Search your codebase for /v1/reports.
  2. Replace all calls with GET /v2/reports.
  3. Note that v2 returns a data wrapper: { "data": [...], "meta": { ... } }. Update any response-parsing logic accordingly.
  4. Test in your staging environment before deploying to production.

Reference: #PR-919 | v2 API docs


2. Webhook triggered_at Field Format Change

Who is affected: Any webhook consumer that parses the triggered_at field.

Why: ISO 8601 strings are the project-wide standard for timestamps and improve interoperability with third-party tools.

Before:

{ "triggered_at": 1747228800 }

After:

{ "triggered_at": "2026-05-14T08:00:00Z" }

Steps:

  1. Locate any code that reads triggered_at from a webhook payload.
  2. Replace Unix timestamp parsing (e.g., new Date(triggered_at * 1000)) with ISO 8601 parsing (e.g., new Date(triggered_at)).
  3. If you store triggered_at in a database column typed as INTEGER, migrate it to TIMESTAMP or VARCHAR.
  4. Validate against the updated payload schema in your staging webhook endpoint before going live.

We just shipped ClearPoint Nexus v3.2.0 — and this one has a little something for everyone.

For end users: Dashboard load times are down by up to 60%, and you can now export any report directly to CSV or Excel without leaving the app.

For integrators: Webhooks now retry automatically on failure with exponential backoff, and you can inspect every delivery attempt in the new webhook log. We've also added a POST /v2/goals/batch endpoint for teams managing goals at scale via the API.

For everyone: four bug fixes, a security patch, and cleaner, faster everything.
