About AnnounceKit
AnnounceKit is growing past release notes — an MCP server, now help docs beside the changelog.
Releases are infrequent — roughly one every two to three months — but the last two changed what the product is rather than how it looks. July brought an MCP server exposing drafting, publishing, scheduling, feature-request replies and roadmap management to any connected agent; August opened a Knowledge Base beta placing help documentation next to the changelog. The earlier entries in the window are widget and layout redesigns.
