Given the volume of PRs in runtime repo, manually calling out API changes will generate a lot of noise and redundant mentions. dotnet/docs already has automation to track new API surface, so this likely isn’t needed. |

Thanks, @kasperk81; that makes sense. I've tuned the skill instructions such that it won't call out all API changes, but it will highlight high-value feature additions delivered through new APIs--like your |

Standardize the 'partial features' concept from team-aspnetcore.md into the common editorial rules with concrete detection heuristics: 1. No meaningful code sample possible 2. PR says 'Contributes to' rather than 'Fixes' 3. New type/enum with no producer or consumer in the release 4. Parent issue still open with broader scope 5. Release notes text references 'upcoming' APIs Motivated by PR feedback on #10267 where PosixSignal.SIGKILL was called out as useless in Preview 2 because the consumer API (SafeChildProcessHandle.SendSignal) hadn't shipped yet. Also adds a building block check to the categorization step so these are caught before authoring begins. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
Update the Libraries Preview 2 release notes bug fixes section to use nested sub-bullets grouped by area, matching the revised formatting guidelines. Multi-fix areas (System.Net.Http, System.Numerics) are now consolidated under their area heading, and single-fix areas also use sub-bullets for consistency.

This PR deletes the libraries-release-notes skill, in favor of #10282 adding a general-purpose release-notes skill. That skill was loaded locally and used to generate the updated release notes here.
