0.2.4 - 2026-04-14

added a direct README link to the PlatformIO registry page so install guidance points at the published package metadata

0.2.3 - 2026-04-13

trimmed the PlatformIO package export so build-system files and host-only shell examples are not shipped in the registry tarball

Split the top-level README.md into a shorter overview plus focused user and maintainer docs for library entrypoints, PlatformIO usage, and docs/CI workflow.
Added maintainer guardrails for manual-derived protocol rules and difference-first triage.
Kept release/build metadata aligned with the current documentation layout.

Added SM, SD, RD, LZ, LTN, LSTN, LCN, LTS, LTC, LSTS, LSTC, LCS, and LCC device support and validated the practical iQ-R spot-device paths on RJ71C24-R2.
Added Jn\\... link-direct support for batch and multi-block command surfaces, plus CLI front-ends and hardware validation for the validated J1 path.
Fixed binary single-point bit read/write behavior and aligned current request-shape tests with manual-backed bit-packing rules and validated hardware results.
Moved generated API docs to GitHub Pages workflow deployment, pinned Actions workflow versions, and kept release/feature-profile behavior aligned with the current build layout.
Added maintainer guardrails for manual-derived protocol rules and difference-first triage.

Added simpler host and high-level library entrypoints with high_level.hpp, host_sync.hpp, and a compile-checked host quickstart example.
Fixed binary request encoding for non-iQ-R random, random-bit, and multi-block command families based on manual review and real-hardware validation.
Consolidated validation reports into one report per target and refreshed the top-level documentation to separate stable guidance from hardware evidence.
Expanded generated API documentation comments and kept GitHub Actions CI and tagged-release automation aligned with the current package version.

Added MCU-oriented PlatformIO packaging and example environments for RP2040 and ESP32-C3.
Added a read-only real-UART Arduino sample for Serial1 MCU bring-up.
Added Doxygen generation, Markdown link checking, and GitHub Actions workflows for CI and tagged releases.
Added beginner-oriented user docs for setup, wiring, MCU quickstart, troubleshooting, FAQ, and safe CLI examples.
Added validation summaries for hardware support, command fallback behavior, and PlatformIO memory-footprint profiles.
Added build-time feature switches and reduced / ultra-minimal memory profiles for embedded targets.
