What problem does it solve?

Who is it for?
Solo builders using Claude Code for frequent multi-file edits who want lightweight decision logs beyond git commit messages.
Skip if: Teams that already enforce strict conventional commits, linked issues, and formal change-management tools with compliance workflows.

Change tracking with explicit reasoning lands in Build first because it is adopted while you are actively modifying code with agents, then pays off when reviewing and operating. pm fits durable change logs and decision traces that complement tickets and PR descriptions during active development.
How it compares
Change-audit plugin marketplace, not a CI test runner or security scanner skill.
