+# RFC-004: Conventional Commits
+
+## Summary
+
+Adopting conventional commits to enhance the readability and consistency of commit messages.
+
+## Problem
+
+Commit messages frequently lack readability and consistency, making them challenging to understand.
+
+Automatically generating release notes becomes difficult without adhering to a consistent commit format.
+
+## Proposal
+
+Implement [conventional commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) to improve the readability of commit messages.
+
+Initially, enforce conventional commit standards using a GitHub workflow. Over time, transition to using a GitHub ruleset for enforcement.
