+### Changed
+
+**⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE: Switched from YIQ to CIEDE2000 for perceptual color comparison**
+
+The image comparison algorithm has been upgraded to use the industry-standard CIEDE2000 (Delta E) metric, providing superior perceptual accuracy compared to the previous YIQ approach.
+
+**API Changes:**
+- **Removed:** `colorThreshold` option (0.0-1.0 scale)
+- **Removed:** `pixelTolerance` option (0-255 scale)
+- **Removed:** `ignoreColors` option
+- **Added:** `threshold` option using CIEDE2000 Delta E units with intuitive perceptual scale:
+  - `0.0` = Exact pixel matching (strictest)
+  - `1.0` = Just Noticeable Difference (JND) - barely perceptible to trained observers
+  - `2.0` = **Recommended default** - ignores sub-pixel rendering variance, catches real differences
+  - `3.0+` = Permissive - high tolerance for rendering variations
+
+**Migration Guide:**
+```typescript
+// Before (v0.4.x)
+const result = await compare('baseline.png', 'current.png', {
+  pixelTolerance: 10,      // ❌ Removed
+  colorThreshold: 0.1,     // ❌ Removed
+  ignoreColors: false      // ❌ Removed
+});
+
+// After (v0.5.0)
+const result = await compare('baseline.png', 'current.png', {
+  threshold: 2.0           // ✅ CIEDE2000 Delta E units (new default)
+});
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- More accurate perceptual color difference detection
+- Aligns with CIE standards used in color science
+- Better handling of subtle color variations
+- Improved anti-aliasing detection accuracy

+
+## [0.4.3] - 2025-12-01
+
+## What's Changed
+
+### Fixed
+- Fixed ESM module loading error by renaming platform loader to `.cjs` extension. The package uses `"type": "module"` in package.json, which caused Node.js to incorrectly treat the CommonJS platform loader as ESM, resulting in import errors. The loader now uses the correct `.cjs` extension.
+
+### Changed
+- Updated Windows build infrastructure to use Blacksmith runners for improved performance
