-Renovate Bot Profile Page
+Welcome! This is the dedicated account that powers **Renovate Bot** on our self‑hosted Gitea instance.  
+Its sole mission: keep our dependencies up to date, consistent, and secure—so you can focus on writing code rather than chasing version bumps.
+
+---
+
+## What Renovate Does
+
+| 📦 | **Detects dependencies** in supported files (e.g. `package.json`, `pom.xml`, `Dockerfile`, `go.mod`, etc.) |
+|----|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| 🔎 | **Checks upstream registries** for new releases, security patches, and licensing changes                    |
+| 🛠 | **Opens pull requests** with version updates, changelogs, and automated release notes                       |
+| 🚦 | **Groups or re‑bases PRs** to respect repository rules, semantic‑versioning, your schedule, and config       |
+
+---
+
+## Typical Pull Request Anatomy
+
+```
+renovate/<package-name>-<new-version>
+│
+├─ 📄  commit: build(deps): update <package> to <new-version>
+├─ 📝  PR body: changelog‑extract, release notes, breaking‑change highlights
+└─ 🔖  labels: dependencies • renovate • ❗️ major (if semver‑major)
+```
+
+**Heads‑up:** The branch naming and commit convention above is standard but can be adjusted in repository‑level config.
+
+---
+
+## Interacting With the Bot
+
+| Action | How |
+|--------|-----|
+| **Merge or close** | Treat Renovate PRs like any other. Fast‑forward merges are preferred to keep history clean. |
+| **Re‑run a failed PR** | Comment `@renovate-bot rebase` or `@renovate-bot recreate` on the PR. |
+| **Pause updates** | Add the label `renovate‑ignore` **or** set `"enabled": false` in `renovate.json`. |
+| **Schedule batches** | Define `schedule`: `"before 05:00 on monday"` etc. in your config. |
+| **Group deps** | Use `"packageRules"` with a `groupName` key to bundle related packages. |
+
+---
+
+## Quick‑Start: Per‑Repo Config
+
+Create a **`renovate.json`** at the repository root (or inherit from a preset) – for example:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "extends": ["config:base"],
+  "dependencyDashboard": true,
+  "schedule": ["before 06:00 on monday"],
+  "packageRules": [
+    {
+      "matchUpdateTypes": ["major"],
+      "automerge": false,
+      "labels": ["❗️major"]
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```

+
+## Security & Trust
+
+* Runs in our private CI and never executes dependency code—only updates manifest files.  
+* Auth tokens are scoped to the minimal permissions required (read code, write PRs, no direct pushes to default branch).  
+* Changelogs are included so you can audit releases before merging.  
+
+---
+
+## FAQs
+
+* **Why so many PRs?**  
+  Tune `schedule`, enable grouping, or raise thresholds in your `renovate.json`.
+
+* **The update breaks my build.**  
+  Close the PR and add a pin/range in your manifest, or configure Renovate to ignore that dependency version.
+
+* **Can I opt-out completely?**  
+  Yes—set `"enabled": false` in your repo config or ask the DevOps team to disable the repo.
