RELEASE EVIDENCE
Check a marketplace claim before you install
A changelog that says a marketplace is open is a vendor claim. Write the claim, one app, and the questions the page does not answer.
Cursor's changelog says the Origin App Marketplace is open, with more than 20 apps, and that public submissions are now accepted. The apps named there include Cloudflare, Vercel, Linear, Sentry, CodeRabbit, and Semgrep. The jobs named there include deployments, continuous integration, review, security, monitoring, and project management.
This note is about what you write down before you add one of those apps to a release. We did not install the marketplace.
Quote the claim, then the page
One sentence is enough: the vendor says the marketplace is open and lists more than 20 apps. Under it, paste the changelog URL. A secondhand list that adds or drops a name is a different claim.
Pick one app and one staging project
Choose a single name from the page, not the whole set. Write the project where you would install it, and write what a failed install looks like in that project. If you have not chosen the project, the line says Not chosen.
Do not treat a successful install of Linear as news about Semgrep. Each name is its own row.
Write the questions the changelog leaves open
Price, permissions, and who answers when the app breaks are not in the summary above. If the changelog is also silent, write Not stated. Filling those blanks from memory is how a release note becomes fiction.
Public submissions accepted means the vendor says outsiders may submit apps. It does not say you reviewed one.
Stop at the row you can defend
A finished note for this changelog has the quote, the URL, one app, one project, and the open questions. Anything past that is a test you still have to run.
