Description

Summary

Direct user feedback suggests vp up -i would be more useful if it linked to changelog information rather than the generic package URL.

Reference: https://bsky.app/profile/nestor.rip/post/3mssje4iqu22g

Requested change

  • For vp up -i, show an npmx link to the package changelog instead of the package URL

Why this matters

When reviewing updates interactively, changelog context is often more actionable than a homepage or package URL.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how `vp up i` renders package links. Find where the package URL is formatted, then identify how to generate a changelog URL instead. Review existing tests for the interactive update output and run them to confirm changes.
