Summary

We should add a GitHub Actions workflow powered by Universal Version Bump.
This will allow maintainers to manually trigger version bumps from the Actions tab, keeping the project version consistent and reducing manual errors.

✅ Acceptance Criteria

A workflow is visible in the Actions tab.
You can choose the bump type (patch, minor, major).
Running the workflow updates the version automatically using Universal Version Bump.
(Optional) Extend the workflow later to include Git tagging + release creation.

🙋 If you’d like, I can open a PR to add this workflow.

Why should this be worked on?

🌟 Why This Matters

Keeps project versions aligned with development progress.
Reduces manual overhead and error-prone version edits.
Leverages Universal Version Bump for reliable and consistent updates.
Lays foundation for future enhancements like automated tagging, changelog updates, and releases.

Hi.... I’d like to work on this as part of Hacktoberfest plus as good practice in general.
I’ll create a GitHub Actions workflow for manual version bumps using Universal Version Bump,
with patch/minor/major inputs. PR coming soon!
