fix: replace claude CLI with curl for OpenRouter release notes#15
Conversation
…tion The claude CLI failed silently (exit in ~1s) when proxied through OpenRouter via ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL, causing release notes to always fall back to the default placeholder message. Replaced with a direct curl call to OpenRouter's Messages API, which is more reliable and provides visible error output on failure. Also fixes the model ID (4.6 → 4-6) and uses jq for safe JSON encoding.
