fix(build): disable MD012 lint rule in CHANGELOG for release-please compatibility (#173)

WilliamBerryiii · web-flow · commit 54502d8a40d9 · 2026-01-13T17:39:46.000-08:00
## Summary Fixes markdown lint failures caused by release-please's generated CHANGELOG content by disabling the MD012 rule (multiple consecutive blank lines) and converting the existing dash list marker to an asterisk. ## Changes - Add \\ after frontmatter to allow multiple blank lines - Change \- Initial placeholder\ to \* Initial placeholder\ for MD004 compliance ## Why This Approach Release-please uses \conventional-changelog-writer\ with hardcoded templates that generate multiple consecutive blank lines between sections. Rather than post-processing the CHANGELOG on every release, we disable the specific lint rule that conflicts with the generated output. ## Testing - Ran \ px markdownlint-cli2 CHANGELOG.md\ - 0 errors Closes #172
