## What it is
Auto is a CLI tool by Intuit that automates software releases based on semantic version labels added to pull requests. It generates changelogs, GitHub releases, and publishes packages, with plugin support for Slack, Jira, and monorepos.

## Use cases
- automate npm package releases from pull request labels
- generate changelogs automatically from merged PRs
- publish canary builds for PR previews
- manage pre-releases for large changes
- release monorepo packages with semantic versioning
- post release notifications to Slack and link Jira tickets

## When to choose
- you want label-driven releases without changing contributors' commit conventions
- you need changelogs, GitHub releases, and package publishing in one CI step
- you maintain a monorepo and need release automation
- you want canary and pre-release channels for testing changes

## When to avoid
- you prefer commit-message-convention tools like semantic-release with strict conventional commits
- your project doesn't use GitHub pull requests
- you need releases from non-Git platforms
