Good addition. Please see my additional comment regarding commit message formatting.

How It Works
The project now provides a complete automated release pipeline:
Conventional Commit Format
The system enforces strict conventional commit formatting:
feat:- new features (minor version bump: 1.0.0 → 1.1.0)fix:- bug fixes (patch version bump: 1.0.0 → 1.0.1)feat!:orfix!:- breaking changes (major version bump: 1.0.0 → 2.0.0)docs:,style:,refactor:,test:,chore:- no version bumpInvalid commit messages are automatically rejected before reaching the repository, preventing release failures.
Security & Safety
