## [0.4.0-preview0004] - 2026-02-23

### Changed

- Migrated `tests/QA/module.tests.ps1` to Pester 5 syntax using
 `BeforeDiscovery`/`BeforeAll` blocks, `-ForEach` instead of `foreach`
 loops for dynamic `Describe` blocks, and updated all legacy `Should`
 assertions to use the dash-parameter syntax.
- Updated build files to newest version of Sampler (PR #12).
- Added GitHub issue templates and pull request template for better
 contribution guidelines.
- Added VSCode settings for the project.

 configuration.
- Added `AliasesToExport` to module manifest for better command aliasing.
- Updated Windows VM image to 'windows-latest' in Azure Pipelines
 configuration.
- Removed `PSDependOptions` from `RequiredModules.psd1` for cleaner
 configuration.
- Added `SECURITY.md` for reporting security vulnerabilities and guidelines.
- Added `codecov.yml` configuration file for coverage reporting.
- Updated `build.ps1` and `Resolve-Dependency.ps1` build scripts.

### Fixed

- Fix incorrect module manifest `Description` which referenced
 Datum.ProtectedData instead of describing this module's actual purpose.
- Fix PSScriptAnalyzer `PSUseProcessBlockForPipelineCommand` warning in
 `Invoke-InvokeCommandAction` and `Test-InvokeCommandFilter` by wrapping
 the function body in a `process` block.

### Removed

- **Breaking:** Remove unused parameter `ProjectPath` from
 `Invoke-InvokeCommandAction` to resolve PSScriptAnalyzer
 `PSReviewUnusedParameter` warning.

 (`Invoke-InvokeCommandAction`, `Test-InvokeCommandFilter`) with detailed
 descriptions, parameter documentation, multiple examples, notes, and

- Add comment-based help for all private functions
 (`Invoke-InvokeCommandActionInternal`, `Get-DatumCurrentNode`,
 `Get-RelativeNodeFileName`, `Get-ValueKind`).
- Add inline documentation comments to module initialization code
 in `Prefix.ps1`.
- Add comprehensive `README.md` with overview, installation instructions,
 quick start guide, full embedded command syntax reference, available
 variables, dynamic resolution precedence, nested references,
 configuration, error handling, exported functions, and a complete
 end-to-end example.
- Add `docs/GettingStarted.md` step-by-step tutorial for new users.
- Add `source/WikiSource/Home.md` wiki home page with module overview,
 exported functions, installation instructions, quick start guide,
 documentation links, and change log reference.
- Add `docs/Architecture.md` describing the internal processing pipeline,
 module components, error handling strategy, and Datum framework
 relationship.
- Add `docs/Troubleshooting.md` covering common issues, diagnostic steps,
 and resolution guidance.
