For the actual implementation: I think this is a GitHub Action.

It looks for new tags, and when a tag is created it builds the docs using Sphinx, extracts the latest HTML changelog entry using BeautifulSoup, cleans it up a bit (I think the only thing that needs doing is turning relative links into absolute ones), runs it through pypandoc to create gfm, then uses the GitHub releases API to post the changelog as a release.
