Improve the Health Facts of the GitHub repository everywall/ladder.

AwesomeRepos measures facts about how a repository is maintained, released, secured, and documented. Its page for this repository is https://awesomerepos.com/everywall/ladder. A change to the repository can improve each of the 4 items below. Each item gives the measured fact or score, and a task.

1. A changelog file at the root
   Fact: No changelog file at the root (GitHub, 2026-11-12).
   Rule: The root of the default branch has a file named CHANGELOG, CHANGES, HISTORY, NEWS, RELEASE, or RELEASES, with no extension or with .md, .markdown, .rst, .txt, or .adoc. Release notes on GitHub releases do not count.
   Task: Add CHANGELOG.md at the root of the default branch. Write one section for each published release, newest first, from the GitHub releases, the Git tags, and the commit history. Do not invent changes. If the project uses a release tool (for example Changesets, release-please, or semantic-release), configure it to update this file for each release.

2. A security policy
   Fact: GitHub finds no security policy (GitHub, 2026-11-12).
   Rule: GitHub finds a security policy (SECURITY.md in the repository or in the owner's .github repository).
   Task: Add SECURITY.md at the root or in .github/. Say which versions get security fixes and how to report a vulnerability privately. If GitHub private vulnerability reporting is on, point to it. Ask me for the contact; do not invent one.

3. A contributing guide
   Fact: GitHub finds no contributing guide (GitHub, 2026-11-12).
   Rule: GitHub finds a CONTRIBUTING file in the repository or in the owner's .github repository.
   Task: Add CONTRIBUTING.md at the root, in docs/, or in .github/. Tell a contributor how to set up the project, run the tests, and propose a change. Use the real commands of this repository (package scripts, Makefile, CI workflows).

4. A code of conduct
   Fact: GitHub finds no code of conduct (GitHub, 2026-11-12).
   Rule: GitHub finds a code of conduct in the repository or in the owner's .github repository.
   Task: Add CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md at the root with the Contributor Covenant 2.1 text. Change only the contact method. Ask me for the contact; do not invent one.

Rules for this work:
- Each file must be true for this project. Do not copy text that does not apply to it.
- Do not choose a licence, a contact, or a release version for me. Ask me.
- Do not publish a release, change a repository setting, or push to the default branch. Make the changes on a new branch.
- Keep each change small, and run the checks of this repository before you finish.
- At the end, list each item as DONE, SKIPPED (with the reason), or NEEDS A DECISION (with the question).
