autonewsmd lists every conventional commit, so the Shiny app's changes appeared as singlehit features in the v0.3.0 notes. This runs a post-processing script after NEWS.md is generated (the reusable release workflow's news-postprocess-script input) that drops entries whose commit is scoped app or changed only files under app/, and removes sections left empty. The release PR's dry run also triggers when the script changes.

Run against the current NEWS.md it removes exactly the three app entries (Plots tab, Data/Fit/Compare tabs, golem scaffold) and changes nothing else.

Heads-up: autonewsmd regenerates NEWS.md from the full git history on every release, so the next release will also remove those three entries from the already-published v0.3.0 section.

To check on the dry run: the log should show a non-zero Removed N app-only entries. If the runner's checkout were shallow, entries whose commits cannot be inspected would be kept.
