 - **Minor** (0.1.0): New features (`feat:` commits)
 - **Patch** (0.0.1): Bug fixes, docs, style, refactor, etc.
 
+**Important Note for 0.x.x versions:**
+- Before 1.0.0, breaking changes typically bump the **minor** version
+- Example: `0.1.2` with `BREAKING CHANGE:` → `0.2.0` (not 1.0.0)
+- Major version 1.0.0 is reserved for the first stable, production-ready release
+
 #### Tagging Convention
 - Tags follow semantic versioning: `v0.1.2`, `v1.0.0`
 - Tags are automatically created during release process
