-> [!NOTE]
->
-> July 4, 2025
->
-> - **Web Search**: Fabric now supports web search for Anthropic and OpenAI models using the `--search` and `--search-location` flags. This replaces the previous plugin-based search, so you may want to remove the old `ANTHROPIC_WEB_SEARCH_TOOL_*` variables from your `~/.config/fabric/.env` file.
-> - **Image Generation**: Fabric now has powerful image generation capabilities with OpenAI.
->   - Generate images from text prompts and save them using `--image-file`.
->   - Edit existing images by providing an input image with `--attachment`.
->   - Control image `size`, `quality`, `compression`, and `background` with the new `--image-*` flags.
->
->June 17, 2025
->
->- Fabric now supports Perplexity AI. Configure it by using `fabric -S` to add your Perplexity AI API Key,
->   and then try:
->

+# Product Requirements Document: Changelog Generator
+
+## Overview
+
+The Changelog Generator is a high-performance Go tool that automatically generates comprehensive changelogs from git history and GitHub pull requests.
+
+## Goals
+
+1. **Performance**: Very fast. Efficient enough to be used in CI/CD as part of release process.
+2. **Completeness**: Capture ALL commits including unreleased changes
+3. **Efficiency**: Minimize API calls through caching and batch operations
+4. **Reliability**: Handle errors gracefully with proper Go error handling
+5. **Simplicity**: Single binary with no runtime dependencies
+
+## Key Features
+
+### 1. One-Pass Git History Algorithm
+
+- Walk git history once from newest to oldest
+- Start with "Unreleased" bucket for all new commits
+- Switch buckets when encountering version commits
+- No need to calculate ranges between versions
+
+### 2. Native Library Integration
+
+- **go-git**: Pure Go git implementation (no git binary required)
+- **go-github**: Official GitHub Go client library
+- Benefits: Type safety, better error handling, no subprocess overhead
+
+### 3. Smart Caching System
+
+- SQLite-based persistent cache
+- Stores: versions, commits, PR details, last processed commit
+- Enables incremental updates on subsequent runs
+- Instant changelog regeneration from cache
+
+### 4. Concurrent Processing
+
+- Parallel GitHub API calls (up to 10 concurrent)
+- Batch PR fetching with deduplication
+- Rate limiting awareness
+
+### 5. Enhanced Output
+
+- "Unreleased" section for commits since last version
+- Clean markdown formatting
+- Configurable version limiting
+- Direct commit tracking (non-PR commits)
+
+## Technical Architecture
+
+### Module Structure
+
+```text
+cmd/generate_changelog/
+├── main.go              # CLI entry point with cobra
+├── internal/
+│   ├── git/            # Git operations (go-git)
+│   ├── github/         # GitHub API client (go-github)
+│   ├── cache/          # SQLite caching layer
+│   ├── changelog/      # Core generation logic
+│   └── config/         # Configuration management
+└── changelog.db        # SQLite cache (generated)
+```
+
+### Data Flow
+
+1. Git walker collects all commits in one pass
+2. Commits bucketed by version (starting with "Unreleased")
+3. PR numbers extracted from merge commits
+4. GitHub API batch-fetches PR details
+5. Cache stores everything for future runs
+6. Formatter generates markdown output
+
+### Cache Schema
+
+- **metadata**: Last processed commit SHA
+- **versions**: Version names, dates, commit SHAs
+- **commits**: Full commit details with version associations
+- **pull_requests**: PR details including commits
+- Indexes on version and PR number for fast lookups
+
+### Features
+
+- **Unreleased section**: Shows all new commits
+- **Better caching**: SQLite vs JSON, incremental updates
+- **Smarter deduplication**: Removes consecutive duplicate commits
+- **Direct commit tracking**: Shows non-PR commits
+
+### Reliability
+
+- **No subprocess errors**: Direct library usage
+- **Type safety**: Compile-time checking
+- **Better error handling**: Go's explicit error returns
+
+### Deployment
+
+- **Single binary**: No Python/pip/dependencies
+- **Cross-platform**: Compile for any OS/architecture
+- **No git CLI required**: Uses go-git library
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+- `GITHUB_TOKEN`: GitHub API authentication token
+
+### Command Line Flags
+
+- `--repo, -r`: Repository path (default: current directory)
+- `--output, -o`: Output file (default: stdout)
+- `--limit, -l`: Version limit (default: all)
+- `--version, -v`: Target specific version
+- `--save-data`: Export debug JSON
+- `--cache`: Cache file location
+- `--no-cache`: Disable caching
+- `--rebuild-cache`: Force cache rebuild
+- `--token`: GitHub token override
+
+## Success Metrics

+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+go install github.com/danielmiessler/fabric/cmd/generate_changelog@latest
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic usage (generate complete changelog)
+
+```bash
+generate_changelog
+```
+
+### Save to file
+
+```bash
+generate_changelog -o CHANGELOG.md
+```
+
+### Generate for specific version
+
+```bash
+generate_changelog -v v1.4.244

+```bash
+# Enable AI summaries using Fabric
+generate_changelog --ai-summarize
+
+# Use custom model for AI summaries
+FABRIC_CHANGELOG_SUMMARIZE_MODEL=claude-opus-4 generate_changelog --ai-summarize
+```
+
+### Cache management
+
+```bash
+# Rebuild cache from scratch
+generate_changelog --rebuild-cache
+
+# Force a full PR sync from GitHub
+generate_changelog --force-pr-sync
+
+# Disable cache usage
+generate_changelog --no-cache
+
+# Use custom cache location
+generate_changelog --cache /path/to/cache.db
+```
+
+## Command Line Options
+
+| Flag | Short | Description | Default |
+|------|-------|-------------|---------|
+| `--repo` | `-r` | Repository path | `.` (current directory) |
+| `--output` | `-o` | Output file | stdout |
+| `--limit` | `-l` | Limit number of versions | 0 (all) |
+| `--version` | `-v` | Generate for specific version | |
+| `--save-data` | | Save version data to JSON | false |
+| `--cache` | | Cache database file | `./cmd/generate_changelog/changelog.db` |
+| `--no-cache` | | Disable cache usage | false |
+| `--rebuild-cache` | | Rebuild cache from scratch | false |
+| `--force-pr-sync` | | Force a full PR sync from GitHub | false |
+| `--token` | | GitHub API token | `$GITHUB_TOKEN` |
+| `--ai-summarize` | | Generate AI-enhanced summaries using Fabric | false |
+| `--release` | | Update GitHub release description with AI summary for version | |
+
+## Output Format
+
+The generated changelog follows this structure:
+
+```markdown
+# Changelog
+
+## Unreleased
+
+### PR [#1601](url) by [author](profile): PR Title
+- Change description 1
+- Change description 2
+
+### Direct commits
+- Direct commit message 1
+- Direct commit message 2
+
+## v1.4.244 (2025-07-09)
+
+### PR [#1598](url) by [author](profile): PR Title
+- Change description
+...
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Git History Walking**: The tool walks through your git history from newest to oldest commits
+2. **Version Detection**: Identifies version bump commits (pattern: "Update version to vX.Y.Z")
+3. **PR Extraction**: Detects merge commits and extracts PR numbers
+4. **GitHub API Calls**: Fetches detailed PR information in parallel batches
+5. **Change Extraction**: Extracts changes from PR commit messages or PR body
+6. **Formatting**: Generates clean, organized markdown output
+
+## Performance
+
+- **Native Go libraries**: Uses go-git and go-github for maximum performance
+- **Concurrent API calls**: Processes up to 10 GitHub API requests in parallel
+- **Smart caching**: SQLite cache eliminates redundant API calls
+- **Incremental updates**: Only processes new commits on subsequent runs
+- **GraphQL optimization**: Uses GitHub GraphQL API to fetch all PR data in ~5-10 calls
+- **AI-powered summaries**: Optional Fabric integration with intelligent caching
+- **Content-based change detection**: AI summaries only regenerated when content changes
+- **Lightning-fast git operations**: SHA→PR mapping stored in database for instant lookups
+
+### Major Optimization: GraphQL + Advanced Caching
+
+The tool has been optimized to drastically reduce GitHub API calls and improve performance:
+
+**Previous approach**: Individual API calls for each PR (2 API calls per PR)
+
+- For a repo with 500 PRs: 1,000 API calls
+
+**Current approach**: GraphQL batch fetching with intelligent caching
+
+- For a repo with 500 PRs: ~5-10 GraphQL calls (initial fetch) + 0 calls (subsequent runs with cache)
+- **99%+ reduction in API calls after initial run!**
+
+The optimization includes:
+
+1. **GraphQL Batch Fetch**: Uses GitHub's GraphQL API to fetch all merged PRs with commits in minimal calls
+2. **Smart Caching**: Stores complete PR data, commits, and SHA mappings in SQLite
+3. **Incremental Sync**: Only fetches PRs merged after the last sync timestamp
+4. **Automatic Refresh**: PRs are synced every 24 hours or when missing PRs are detected
+5. **AI Summary Caching**: Content-based change detection prevents unnecessary AI regeneration
+6. **Fallback Support**: If GraphQL fails, falls back to REST API batch fetching
+7. **Lightning Git Operations**: Pre-computed SHA→PR mappings for instant commit association
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Go 1.24+ (for installation from source)
+- Git repository
+- GitHub token (optional, for private repos or higher rate limits)
+- Fabric CLI (optional, for AI-enhanced summaries)
+
+## Authentication
+
+The tool supports GitHub authentication via:
+
+1. Environment variable: `export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token`
+2. Command line flag: `--token your_token`
+3. `.env` file in the same directory as the binary
+
+### Environment File Support
+
+Create a `.env` file next to the `generate_changelog` binary:
+
+```bash
+GITHUB_TOKEN=your_github_token_here
+FABRIC_CHANGELOG_SUMMARIZE_MODEL=claude-sonnet-4-20250514
+```
+
+The tool automatically loads `.env` files for convenient configuration management.
+
+Without authentication, the tool is limited to 60 GitHub API requests per hour.
+
+## Caching
+
+The SQLite cache stores:
+
+- Version information and commit associations
+- Pull request details (title, body, commits, authors)
+- Last processed commit SHA for incremental updates
+- Last PR sync timestamp for intelligent refresh
+- AI summaries with content-based change detection
+- SHA→PR mappings for lightning-fast git operations
+
+Cache benefits:
+
+- Instant changelog regeneration
+- Drastically reduced GitHub API usage (99%+ reduction after initial run)
+- Offline changelog generation (after initial cache build)
+- Automatic PR data refresh every 24 hours
+- Batch database transactions for better performance
+- Content-aware AI summary regeneration
+
+## AI-Enhanced Summaries
+
+The tool can generate AI-powered summaries using Fabric for more polished, professional changelogs:
+
+```bash
+# Enable AI summarization
+generate_changelog --ai-summarize
+
+# Custom model (default: claude-sonnet-4-20250514)
+FABRIC_CHANGELOG_SUMMARIZE_MODEL=claude-opus-4 generate_changelog --ai-summarize
+```
+
+### AI Summary Features
+
+- **Content-based change detection**: AI summaries are only regenerated when version content changes
+- **Intelligent caching**: Preserves existing summaries and only processes changed versions
+- **Content hash comparison**: Uses SHA256 hashing to detect when "Unreleased" content changes
+- **Automatic fallback**: Falls back to raw content if AI processing fails
+- **Error detection**: Identifies and handles AI processing errors gracefully
+- **Minimum content filtering**: Skips AI processing for very brief content (< 256 characters)
+
+### AI Model Configuration
+
+Set the model via environment variable:
+
+```bash
+export FABRIC_CHANGELOG_SUMMARIZE_MODEL=claude-opus-4
+# or
+export FABRIC_CHANGELOG_SUMMARIZE_MODEL=gpt-4
+```
+
+AI summaries are cached and only regenerated when:
+
+- Version content changes (detected via hash comparison)
+- No existing AI summary exists for the version
+- Force rebuild is requested

+You are an expert Technical Writer specializing in creating clear, concise,
+and professional release notes from raw Git commit logs.
+
+# TASK
+Your goal is to transform a provided block of Git commit logs into a clean,
+human-readable changelog summary. You will identify the most important changes,
+format them as a bulleted list, and preserve the associated Pull Request (PR)
+information.
+
+# INSTRUCTIONS:
+Follow these steps in order:
+1. Deeply analyze the input. You will be given a block of text containing PR
+   information and commit log messages. Carefully read through the logs
+   to identify individual commits and their descriptions.
+2. Identify Key Changes: Focus on commits that represent significant changes,
+   such as new features ("feat"), bug fixes ("fix"), performance improvements ("perf"),
+   or breaking changes ("BREAKING CHANGE").
+3. Select the Top 5: From the identified key changes, select a maximum of the five
+   (5) most impactful ones to include in the summary.
+   If there are five or fewer total changes, include all of them.
+4. Format the Output:
+    - Where you see a PR header, include the PR header verbatim. NO CHANGES.
+	  **This is a critical rule: Do not modify the PR header, as it contains
+	  important links.** What follow the PR header are the related changes.
+	- Do not add any additional text or preamble. Begin directly with the output.
+	- Use bullet points for each key change. Starting each point with a hyphen ("-").
+	- Ensure that the summary is concise and focused on the main changes.
+	- The summary should be in American English (en-US), using proper grammar and punctuation.
+5. If the content is too brief or you do not see any PR headers, return the content as is.

+# Automated CHANGELOG Entry System for CI/CD
+
+## Overview
+
+This document outlines a comprehensive system for automatically generating and maintaining CHANGELOG.md entries during the CI/CD process. The system builds upon the existing `generate_changelog` tool and integrates seamlessly with GitHub's pull request workflow.
+
+## Current State Analysis
+
+### Existing Infrastructure
+
+The `generate_changelog` tool already provides:
+
+- **High-performance Git history walking** with one-pass algorithm
+- **GitHub API integration** with GraphQL optimization and smart caching
+- **SQLite-based caching** for instant incremental updates
+- **AI-powered summaries** using Fabric integration
+- **Concurrent processing** for optimal performance
+- **Version detection** from git tags and commit patterns
+
+### Key Components
+
+- **Main entry point**: `cmd/generate_changelog/main.go`
+- **Core generation logic**: `internal/changelog/generator.go`
+- **AI summarization**: `internal/changelog/summarize.go`
+- **Caching system**: `internal/cache/cache.go`
+- **GitHub integration**: `internal/github/client.go`
+- **Git operations**: `internal/git/walker.go`
+
+## Proposed Automated System
+
+### Developer Workflow
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    A[Developer creates feature branch] --> B[Codes feature]
+    B --> C[Creates Pull Request]
+    C --> D[PR is open and ready]
+    D --> E[Developer runs: generate_changelog --incoming-pr XXXX]
+    E --> F[Tool validates PR is open/mergeable]
+    F --> G[Tool creates incoming/XXXX.txt with AI summary]
+    G --> H[Auto-commit and push to branch]
+    H --> I[PR includes pre-processed changelog entry]
+    I --> J[PR gets reviewed and merged]
+```
+
+### CI/CD Integration
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    A[PR merged to main] --> B[Version bump workflow triggered]
+    B --> C[generate_changelog --process-prs]
+    C --> D[Scan incoming/ directory]
+    D --> E[Concatenate all incoming/*.txt files]
+    E --> F[Insert new version at top of CHANGELOG.md]
+    F --> G[Store entry in versions table]
+    G --> H[git rm incoming/*.txt files]
+    H --> I[git add CHANGELOG.md and changelog.db, done by the tool]
+    I --> J[Increment version number]
+    J --> K[Commit and tag release]
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Phase 1: Pre-Processing PRs
+
+#### New Command: `--incoming-pr`
+
+**Usage**: `generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672`
+
+**Functionality**:
+
+1. **Validation**:
+   - Verify PR exists and is open
+   - Check PR is mergeable
+   - Ensure branch is up-to-date
+   - Verify that current git repo is clean (everything committed); do not continue otherwise.
+
+2. **Content Generation**:
+   - Extract PR metadata (title, author, description)
+   - Collect all commit messages from the PR
+   - Use existing `SummarizeVersionContent` function for AI enhancement
+   - Format as standard changelog entry
+
+3. **File Creation**:
+   - Generate `./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming/{PR#}.txt`
+   - Include PR header: `### PR [#1672](url) by [author](profile): Title` (as is done currently in the code)
+   - Consider extracting the existing header code for PRs into a helper function for re-use.
+   - Include the AI-summarized changes (generated when we ran all the commit messages through `SummarizeVersionContent`)
+
+4. **Auto-commit**:
+   - Commit file with message: `chore: incoming 1672 changelog entry`
+   - Optionally push to current branch (use `--push` flag)
+
+(The PR is now completely ready to be merged with integrated CHANGELOG entry updating)
+
+#### File Format Example
+
+```markdown
+### PR [#1672](https://github.com/danielmiessler/Fabric/pull/1672) by [ksylvan](https://github.com/ksylvan): Changelog Generator Enhancement
+
+- Added automated CI/CD integration for changelog generation
+- Implemented pre-processing of PR entries during development
+- Enhanced caching system for better performance
+- Added validation for mergeable PR states
+```
+
+### Phase 2: Release Processing
+
+#### New Command: `--process-prs`
+
+**Usage**: `generate_changelog --process-prs`
+
+**Integration Point**: `.github/workflows/update-version-and-create-tag.yml`
+
+(we can do this AFTER the "Update gomod2nix.toml file" step in the workflow, where we
+already have generated the next version in the "version.nix" file)
+
+**Functionality**:
+
+1. **Discovery**: Scan `./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming/` directory
+2. **Aggregation**: Read and concatenate all `*.txt` files
+3. **Version Creation**: Generate new version header with current date
+4. **CHANGELOG Update**: Insert new version at top of existing CHANGELOG.md
+5. **Database Update**: Store complete entry in `versions` table as `ai_summary`
+6. **Cleanup**: Remove all processed incoming files
+7. **Stage Changes**: Add modified files to git staging area
+
+#### Example Output in CHANGELOG.md
+
+```markdown

+
+## v1.4.258 (2025-07-14)
+[... rest of file ...]
+```
+
+## Technical Implementation
+
+### Configuration Extensions
+
+Add to `internal/config/config.go`:
+
+```go
+type Config struct {
+    // ... existing fields
+    IncomingPR   int         // PR number for --incoming-pr
+    ProcessPRsVersion string // Flag for --process-prs (new version string)
+    IncomingDir  string      // Directory for incoming files (default: ./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming/)
+}
+```
+
+### New Command Line Flags
+
+```go
+rootCmd.Flags().IntVar(&cfg.IncomingPR, "incoming-pr", 0, "Pre-process PR for changelog (provide PR number)")
+rootCmd.Flags().StringVar(&cfg.ProcessPRsVersion, "process-prs", "", "Process all incoming PR files for release (provide version like v1.4.262)")
+rootCmd.Flags().StringVar(&cfg.IncomingDir, "incoming-dir", "./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming", "Directory for incoming PR files")
+```
+
+### Core Logic Extensions
+
+#### PR Pre-processing
+
+```go
+func (g *Generator) ProcessIncomingPR(prNumber int) error {
+    // 1. Validate PR state via GitHub API
+    pr, err := g.ghClient.GetPR(prNumber)
+    if err != nil || pr.State != "open" || !pr.Mergeable {
+        return fmt.Errorf("PR %d is not in valid state for processing", prNumber)
+    }
+
+    // 2. Generate changelog content using existing logic
+    content := g.formatPR(pr)
+
+    // 3. Apply AI summarization if enabled
+    if g.cfg.EnableAISummary {
+        content, _ = SummarizeVersionContent(content)
+    }
+
+    // 4. Write to incoming file
+    filename := filepath.Join(g.cfg.IncomingDir, fmt.Sprintf("%d.txt", prNumber))
+    err = os.WriteFile(filename, []byte(content), 0644)
+    if err != nil {
+        return fmt.Errorf("failed to write incoming file: %w", err)
+    }
+
+    // 5. Auto-commit and push
+    return g.commitAndPushIncoming(prNumber, filename)
+}
+```
+
+#### Release Processing
+
+```go
+func (g *Generator) ProcessIncomingPRs(version string) error {
+    // 1. Scan incoming directory
+    files, err := filepath.Glob(filepath.Join(g.cfg.IncomingDir, "*.txt"))
+    if err != nil || len(files) == 0 {
+        return fmt.Errorf("no incoming PR files found")
+    }
+
+    // 2. Read and concatenate all files
+    var content strings.Builder
+    for _, file := range files {
+        data, err := os.ReadFile(file)
+        if err == nil {
+            content.WriteString(string(data))
+            content.WriteString("\n")
+        }
+    }
+
+    // 3. Generate version entry
+    entry := fmt.Sprintf("\n## %s (%s)\n\n%s",
+        version, time.Now().Format("2006-01-02"), content.String())
+
+    // 4. Update CHANGELOG.md
+    err = g.insertVersionAtTop(entry)
+    if err != nil {
+        return fmt.Errorf("failed to update CHANGELOG.md: %w", err)
+    }
+
+    // 5. Update database
+    err = g.cache.SaveVersionEntry(version, content.String())
+    if err != nil {
+        return fmt.Errorf("failed to save to database: %w", err)
+    }
+
+    // 6. Cleanup incoming files
+    for _, file := range files {
+        os.Remove(file)
+    }
+
+    return nil
+}
+```
+
+## Workflow Integration
+
+### GitHub Actions Modification
+
+Update `.github/workflows/update-version-and-create-tag.yml`.
+
+```yaml
+- name: Generate Changelog Entry
+  run: |
+    # Process all incoming PR entries
+    ./cmd/generate_changelog/generate_changelog --process-prs
+
+    # The tool will make the needed changes in the CHANGELOG.md,
+    # and the changelog.db, and will remove the PR#.txt file(s)
+    # In effect, doing the following:
+    # 1. Generate the new CHANGELOG (and store the entry in the changelog.db)
+    # 2. git add CHANGELOG.md
+    # 3. git add ./cmd/generate_changelog/changelog.db
+    # 4. git rm -rf ./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming/
+    #
+```
+
+### Developer Instructions
+
+1. **During Development**:
+
+   ```bash
+   # After PR is ready for review (commit locally only)
+   generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --ai-summarize
+
+   # Or to automatically push to remote
+   generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --ai-summarize --push
+   ```
+
+2. **Validation**:
+   - Check that `incoming/1672.txt` was created
+   - Verify auto-commit occurred
+   - Confirm file is included in PR
+   - Scan the file and make any changes you need to the auto-generated summary
+

+
+## Conclusion
+
+This automated changelog system builds upon the robust foundation of the existing `generate_changelog` tool while providing a seamless developer experience and reliable CI/CD integration. By pre-processing PR entries during development and aggregating them during releases, we achieve both accuracy and automation without sacrificing quality or developer productivity.
+
+The phased approach ensures smooth adoption while the extensive error handling and validation provide confidence in production deployment. The system's design leverages existing infrastructure and patterns, making it a natural evolution of the current changelog generation capabilities.

+# Automated Changelog System - Developer Guide
+
+This guide explains how to use the new automated changelog system for the Fabric project.
+
+## Overview
+
+The automated changelog system allows developers to pre-process their PR changelog entries during development, which are then automatically aggregated during the release process. This eliminates manual CHANGELOG.md editing and reduces merge conflicts.
+
+## Developer Workflow
+
+### Step 1: Create Your Feature Branch and PR
+
+Work on your feature as usual and create a pull request.
+
+### Step 2: Generate Changelog Entry
+
+Once your PR is ready for review, generate a changelog entry:
+
+```bash
+cd cmd/generate_changelog
+go build -o generate_changelog .
+./generate_changelog --incoming-pr YOUR_PR_NUMBER
+```
+
+For example, if your PR number is 1672:
+
+```bash
+./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672
+```
+
+### Step 3: Validation
+
+The tool will validate:
+
+- ✅ PR exists and is open
+- ✅ PR is mergeable (no conflicts)
+- ✅ Your working directory is clean
+
+If any validation fails, fix the issues and try again.
+
+### Step 4: Review Generated Entry
+
+The tool will:
+
+1. Create `./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming/1672.txt`
+2. Generate an AI-enhanced summary (if `--ai-summarize` is enabled)
+3. Auto-commit the file to your branch (use `--push` to also push to remote)
+
+Review the generated file and edit if needed:
+
+```bash
+cat ./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming/1672.txt
+```
+
+### Step 5: Include in PR
+
+The incoming changelog entry is now part of your PR and will be reviewed along with your code changes.
+
+## Example Generated Entry
+
+```markdown
+### PR [#1672](https://github.com/danielmiessler/fabric/pull/1672) by [ksylvan](https://github.com/ksylvan): Changelog Generator Enhancement
+
+- Added automated CI/CD integration for changelog generation
+- Implemented pre-processing of PR entries during development
+- Enhanced caching system for better performance
+- Added validation for mergeable PR states
+```
+
+## Command Options
+
+### `--incoming-pr`
+
+Pre-process a specific PR for changelog generation.
+
+**Usage**: `./generate_changelog --incoming-pr PR_NUMBER`
+
+**Requirements**:
+
+- PR must be open
+- PR must be mergeable (no conflicts)
+- Working directory must be clean (no uncommitted changes)
+- GitHub token must be available (`GITHUB_TOKEN` env var or `--token` flag)
+
+**Mutual Exclusivity**: Cannot be used with `--process-prs` flag
+
+### `--incoming-dir`
+
+Specify custom directory for incoming PR files (default: `./cmd/generate_changelog/incoming`).
+
+**Usage**: `./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --incoming-dir ./custom/path`
+
+### `--process-prs`
+
+Process all incoming PR files for release aggregation. Used by CI/CD during release creation.
+
+**Usage**: `./generate_changelog --process-prs {new_version_string}`
+
+**Mutual Exclusivity**: Cannot be used with `--incoming-pr` flag
+
+### `--ai-summarize`
+
+Enable AI-enhanced summaries using Fabric integration.
+
+**Usage**: `./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --ai-summarize`
+
+### `--push`
+
+Enable automatic git push after creating an incoming entry. By default, the commit is created locally but not pushed to the remote repository.
+
+**Usage**: `./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --push`
+
+**Note**: When using `--push`, ensure you have proper authentication configured (SSH keys or GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "PR is not open"
+
+Your PR has been closed or merged. Only open PRs can be processed.
+
+### "PR is not mergeable"
+
+Your PR has merge conflicts or other issues preventing it from being merged. Resolve conflicts and ensure the PR is in a mergeable state.
+
+### "Working directory is not clean"
+
+You have uncommitted changes. Commit or stash them before running the tool.
+
+### "Failed to fetch PR"
+
+Check your GitHub token and network connection. Ensure the PR number exists.
+
+## CI/CD Integration
+
+The system automatically processes all incoming PR files during the release workflow. No manual intervention is required.
+
+When a release is created:
+
+1. All `incoming/*.txt` files are aggregated using `--process-prs`
+2. Version is detected from `version.nix` or latest git tag
+3. A new version entry is created in CHANGELOG.md
+4. Incoming files are cleaned up (removed)
+5. Changes are staged for the release commit (CHANGELOG.md and cache file)
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Run early**: Generate your changelog entry as soon as your PR is ready for review
+2. **Review content**: Always review the generated entry and edit if necessary
+3. **Keep it updated**: If you make significant changes to your PR, regenerate the entry
+4. **Use AI summaries**: Enable `--ai-summarize` for more professional, consistent formatting
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Custom GitHub Token
+
+```bash
+./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --token YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN
+```
+
+### Custom Repository Path
+
+```bash
+./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --repo /path/to/repo
+```
+
+### Disable Caching
+
+```bash
+./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --no-cache
+```
+
+### Enable Auto-Push
+
+```bash
+./generate_changelog --incoming-pr 1672 --push
+```
+
+This creates the commit locally and pushes it to the remote repository. By default, commits are only created locally, allowing you to review changes before pushing manually.
+
+**Authentication**: The tool automatically detects GitHub repositories and uses the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable for authentication when pushing. For SSH repositories, ensure your SSH keys are properly configured.
+
+## Integration with Existing Workflow
+
+This system is fully backward compatible. The existing changelog generation continues to work unchanged. The new features are opt-in and only activated when using the new flags.
+
+## Support
+
+If you encounter issues:
+
+1. Check this documentation
+2. Verify your GitHub token has appropriate permissions
+3. Ensure your PR meets the validation requirements
+4. Check the tool's help: `./generate_changelog --help`
+
+For bugs or feature requests, please create an issue in the repository.

+# Gemini Text-to-Speech (TTS) Guide
+
+Fabric supports Google Gemini's text-to-speech (TTS) capabilities, allowing you to convert text into high-quality audio using various AI-generated voices.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Gemini TTS feature in Fabric allows you to:
+
+- Convert text input into audio using Google's Gemini TTS models
+- Choose from 30+ different AI voices with varying characteristics
+- Generate high-quality WAV audio files
+- Integrate TTS generation into your existing Fabric workflows
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic TTS Generation
+
+To generate audio from text using TTS:
+
+```bash
+# Basic TTS with default voice (Kore)
+echo "Hello, this is a test of Gemini TTS" | fabric -m gemini-2.5-flash-preview-tts -o output.wav
+
+# Using a specific voice
+echo "Hello, this is a test with the Charon voice" | fabric -m gemini-2.5-flash-preview-tts --voice Charon -o output.wav
+
+# Using TTS with a pattern
+fabric -p summarize --voice Puck -m gemini-2.5-flash-preview-tts -o summary.wav < document.txt
+```
+
+### Voice Selection
+
+Use the `--voice` flag to specify which voice to use for TTS generation:
+
+```bash
+fabric -m gemini-2.5-flash-preview-tts --voice Zephyr -o output.wav "Your text here"
+```
+
+If no voice is specified, the default voice "Kore" will be used.
+
+## Available Voices

+# Docker Test Environment for API Configuration Fix
+
+This directory contains a Docker-based testing setup for fixing the issue where Fabric calls Ollama and Bedrock APIs even when not configured. This addresses the problem where unconfigured services show error messages during model listing.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh
+
+# Interactive mode - pick which test to run
+./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh -i
+
+# Run specific test case
+./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh gemini-only
+
+# Shell into test environment
+./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh -s gemini-only
+
+# Build image only (for development)
+./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh -b
+
+# Show help
+./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh -h
+```
+
+## Test Cases
+
+1. **no-config**: No APIs configured
+2. **gemini-only**: Only Gemini configured (reproduces original issue #1195)
+3. **openai-only**: Only OpenAI configured
+4. **ollama-only**: Only Ollama configured
+5. **bedrock-only**: Only Bedrock configured
+6. **mixed**: Multiple APIs configured (Gemini + OpenAI + Ollama)
+
+## Environment Files
+
+Each test case has a corresponding environment file in `scripts/docker-test/env/`:
+
+- `env.no-config` - Empty configuration
+- `env.gemini-only` - Only Gemini API key
+- `env.openai-only` - Only OpenAI API key
+- `env.ollama-only` - Only Ollama URL
+- `env.bedrock-only` - Only Bedrock configuration
+- `env.mixed` - Multiple API configurations
+
+These files are volume-mounted into the Docker container and persist changes made with `fabric -S`.
+
+## Interactive Mode & Shell Access
+
+The interactive mode (`-i`) provides several options:
+
+```text
+Available test cases:
+
+1) No APIs configured (no-config)
+2) Only Gemini configured (gemini-only)
+3) Only OpenAI configured (openai-only)
+4) Only Ollama configured (ollama-only)
+5) Only Bedrock configured (bedrock-only)
+6) Mixed configuration (mixed)
+7) Run all tests
+0) Exit
+
+Add '!' after number to shell into test environment (e.g., '1!' to shell into no-config)
+```
+
+### Shell Mode
+
+- Use `1!`, `2!`, etc. to shell into any test environment
+- Run `fabric -S` to configure APIs interactively
+- Run `fabric --listmodels` or `fabric -L` to test model listing
+- Changes persist in the environment files
+- Type `exit` to return to test runner
+
+## Expected Results
+
+**Before Fix:**
+
+- `no-config` and `gemini-only` tests show Ollama connection errors
+- Tests show Bedrock authentication errors when BEDROCK_AWS_REGION not set
+- Error: `Ollama Get "http://localhost:11434/api/tags": dial tcp...`
+- Error: `Bedrock failed to list foundation models...`
+
+**After Fix:**
+
+- Clean output with no error messages for unconfigured services
+- Only configured services appear in model listings
+- Ollama only initialized when `OLLAMA_API_URL` is set
+- Bedrock only initialized when `BEDROCK_AWS_REGION` is set
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+- **Volume-mounted configs**: Environment files are mounted to `/home/testuser/.config/fabric/.env`
+- **Persistent state**: Configuration changes survive between test runs
+- **Single Docker image**: Built once from `scripts/docker-test/base/Dockerfile`, reused for all tests
+- **Isolated environments**: Each test uses its own environment file
+- **Cross-platform**: Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows with Docker
+
+## Development Workflow
+
+1. Make code changes to fix API initialization logic
+2. Run `./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh no-config` to test the main issue
+3. Use `./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh -i` for interactive testing
+4. Shell into environments (`1!`, `2!`, etc.) to debug specific configurations
+5. Run all tests before submitting PR: `./scripts/docker-test/test-runner.sh`
+
+## Architecture
+
+The fix involves:
+
+1. **Ollama**: Override `IsConfigured()` method to check for `OLLAMA_API_URL` env var
+2. **Bedrock**: Modify `hasAWSCredentials()` to require `BEDROCK_AWS_REGION`
+3. **Plugin Registry**: Only initialize providers when properly configured
+
+This prevents unnecessary API calls and eliminates confusing error messages for users.
