- Introduced `.github/workflows/release.yml` to automate release processes.
- Enabled manual (`workflow_dispatch`) and automatic triggers for `master` branch commits.
- Configured Gradle release tasks with required environment variables and secret management.
- Integrated signing key handling and OSSRH publication credentials.
