Added

• kettle-jem-template-20260729-005 - Gemspec metadata now publishes this
  project's RubyForum tag as mailing_list_uri, and support docs link to the
  tagged RubyForum community alongside Discord.

Changed

• Raised the runtime dependency floors for kettle-ndjson to 0.1.3 and
  kettle-rb to 0.1.7.
• kettle-changelog now accepts K_CHANGELOG_PATH so monorepo release flows
  can run inside a gem while updating a shared root changelog.

Fixed

• kettle-jem-template-20260728-004 - Generated dep-heads workflows now use the
  setup-ruby Bundler install path for direct appraisal Gemfiles, avoiding rv
  lockfile parser failures on Git and path dependencies.
• kettle-jem-template-20260728-005 - VersionGem bootstrap now creates the
  missing canonical version spec when a project only has shim namespace version
  specs.
• kettle-jem-template-20260729-001 - Generated JRuby 9.4 workflows now use the
  legacy manual bundle install path, avoiding setup-time Bundler full-index
  failures against gem.coop.
• kettle-jem-template-20260729-002 - VersionGem bootstrap now preserves
  and templates dedicated version_gem.rb entrypoints even when the gemspec
  dependency is intentionally omitted, and generated anonymous-loader specs
  cover both version.rb and version_gem.rb.
• kettle-jem-template-20260729-003 - Old-Ruby gems below the VersionGem runtime
  floor now get managed minimal version.rb files and anonymous-loader version
  specs without adding version_gem.
• kettle-jem-template-20260730-001 - Gemspec package file enumeration now runs
  relative to the gemspec directory, so packaged template assets are included
  even when the gemspec is loaded from another working directory.
