+# C++ Upgrade Tools
+
+Abseil may occassionally release API-breaking changes. As noted in our
+[Compatibility Guidelines][compatibility-guide], we will aim to provide a tool
+to do the work of effecting such API-breaking changes, when absolutely
+necessary.
+
+These tools will be listed on the [C++ Upgrade Tools][upgrade-tools] guide on
+https://abseil.io.
+
+For more information, the [C++ Automated Upgrade Guide][api-upgrades-guide]
+outlines this process.
