+Releases. It does not commit changelog or version files back to main.
+
+## What happens on dev-release
+
+1) semantic-release determines the next version and creates a GitHub Release.
+2) The release notes serve as the changelog.
+
+## Files updated by the PR
+
+- GitHub Releases (release notes)
+
+## Requirements
+
+- No repo commits are made by the release process.
