+### 🚀 For Maintainers: Automated Releases
+
+This project uses automated releases triggered by version changes:
+
+```bash
+# Guided release preparation
+npm run prepare:release
+
+# Test release automation
+npm run test:release-automation
+```
+
+The system automatically handles:
+- 🏷️ GitHub releases with changelog content
+- 📦 NPM package publishing
+- 🐳 Multi-platform Docker images
+- 📚 Documentation updates
+
+See [Automated Release Guide](./docs/AUTOMATED_RELEASES.md) for complete details.

+### Added
+- **Automated Release System**: Complete CI/CD pipeline for automated releases on version bump
+  - GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/release.yml`) with 7 coordinated jobs
+  - Automatic version detection and changelog extraction
+  - Multi-artifact publishing: GitHub releases, NPM package, Docker images
+  - Interactive release preparation tool (`npm run prepare:release`)
+  - Comprehensive release testing tool (`npm run test:release-automation`)
+  - Full documentation in `docs/AUTOMATED_RELEASES.md`
+  - Zero-touch releases: version bump → automatic everything
