This update introduces a comprehensive, visually distinct, and interactive changelog system to the documentation site. It migrates changelog entries from a monolithic markdown file into individual files with structured metadata, adds scripts for migration, validation, and sidebar generation, implements custom React components for changelog display, and applies extensive scoped styling and timeline navigation.

Poem

Changelogs now sparkle, a timeline anew,
With heroics, sidebars, and tabs in full view.
Cards glide, dots pulse, as stories unfold,
Each update a chapter in colors so bold.
Scripts and styles join the lively parade—
Reviewers, rejoice! A changelog upgrade.

❌ Failed Checks (3 warnings)
Check Name Status Explanation Resolution
Title Check ⚠️ Warning The title is vague and includes 'do not merge' without summarizing the substantial migration to a new changelog format with custom plugin, components, styling, and scripts. Revise the title to clearly and specifically reflect the changes, for example: "Migrate to new Docusaurus changelog plugin with custom components, styling, and redirect scripts".
Description Check ⚠️ Warning The pull request description is empty and provides no context, summary of changes, or rationale. Add a detailed description outlining the new changelog architecture, list of added files and features, migration steps, and testing instructions; consider adding a PR template to ensure all required sections are filled out.
Docstring Coverage ⚠️ Warning Docstring coverage is 37.50% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. You can run @coderabbitai generate docstrings to improve docstring coverage.
Impact Analysis

New interactive changelog section added to documentation site

📢 Medium 🔄 Impacts behavior

The documentation site now hosts a dedicated /changelog route powered by a new Docusaurus docs plugin instance. Visitors see an interactive, timeline-style sidebar, hero banner, filter tabs, live search, pagination, and detailed entry pages. Legacy URLs under /docs/changelog —including hash anchors—are automatically redirected to the new paths.

Verify the plugin configuration in docusaurus.config.ts and the correctness of redirect mappings. Review the custom React components (ChangelogHero, ChangelogList, ChangelogSearch, ChangelogTabs, ChangelogPagination, ChangelogDateDisplay, ChangelogItem, ChangelogRedirect, ChangelogPageEffect) for accessibility, styling consistency, and integration with Docusaurus.

End-to-end test the new /changelog UI: navigation via sidebar timeline, search filtering, tab filters, entry pagination, hero display, and responsive layout. Confirm redirects from /docs/changelog and legacy anchors work correctly. Test on mobile breakpoints and with reduced-motion settings.
