     • Added for new features.
     • Changed for changes in existing functionality.
     • Deprecated for soon-to-be removed features.
     • Removed for now removed features.
     • Fixed for any bug fixes.
     • Security in case of vulnerabilities.

2. Explain User & Technical Impact:

   • Highlight breaking changes, migration steps for developers, and behavior modifications for users.

3. Conventional Commits Enforcement:

   • Map standard prefixes (feat:, fix:, docs:, style:, refactor:, test:, chore:) to changelog categories.
