(new): prepare v2.1.0 release

- add custom LogLevel constructors and richer color configuration
- support ANSI, 256-color, RGB, and text attributes on LogLevel
- introduce clearer preferred APIs such as NewLogger and SetName
- preserve backward compatibility with deprecated wrappers for v2.0.1 APIs
- restore legacy ColorStringBuilder signatures as compatibility wrappers
- fix newline separator handling in Println-style output
- add tests for color precedence, deprecated aliases, and LogLevel attributes
- update GoDoc and bilingual README documentation

+## Custom levels and colors
+
+You can define your own levels and assign ANSI, 256-color, or RGB colors, plus text attributes such as `Bold` or `Italic`.
+
+```go
+httpDelete := sneklog.NewLogLevel(0, "delete")
+httpDelete.SetBackgroundRGB(128, 0, 0)

+## Message replacement
+
+`AddReplacer(old, new)` replaces matching text in every message before the
+record reaches any writer. Replacement rules are applied in the order they are
+added.
+
+```go
+logger := sneklog.CreateLogger().
+	Level(sneklog.DEBUG).
+	AddReplacer("SOME_SECRET", "<redacted>").
+	AddReplacer("user@example.com", "<email>")
+
+logger.Infoln("login token:", "SOME_SECRET")
+```
+
+This writes `<redacted>` instead of `SOME_SECRET` in both text and JSON output.
+An empty `old` value is ignored.

 ## API summary
 
 - `Info`, `Warn`, `Error`, `Debug`, and `Fatal` accept a list of values.
 - `Infof`, `Warnf`, `Errorf`, `Debugf`, and `Fatalf` use `fmt.Sprintf`.
 - The `*ln` methods preserve newline semantics, which is useful for `stdout`, Docker, and line-based collectors.
 - `Fatal`, `Fatalf`, and `Fatalln` call `os.Exit(1)` after writing the message.
+- `AddReplacer` masks or rewrites message text before records are sent to writers.
 
 ## Traceback behavior
 
 - Text writers use the nearest user stack frame.
 - JSON writers receive the full traceback slice.

+# v2.1.0
+
+This release expands sneklog color customization while preserving compatibility with the v2.0.1 API.
+
+## Added
+- custom LogLevel constructors with configurable colors
+- 256-color and RGB support for LogLevel
+- ANSI text attributes on LogLevel such as Bold and Italic
+- typed color helpers for foreground/background RGB and 256-color values
+- NewLogger, SetName, SetLevel, and SetJSONPretty as clearer preferred APIs
+
+## Improved
+- text and JSON writer handling of trailing newline semantics
+- formatter colorization logic for foreground, background, and attributes
+- GoDoc coverage across the public API
+- English and Russian README examples and API guidance
+
+## Compatibility
+- legacy APIs from v2.0.1 remain available as deprecated wrappers
+- legacy ColorStringBuilder method signatures were preserved for backward compatibility
+- deprecated methods now explicitly document their replacements and planned removal in v3
+
+## Fixed
+- extra separator/space issues in Println-style output
+- attribute slice handling and defensive copying for LogLevel
+- color mode precedence when switching between ANSI, 256-color, and RGB modes
+
+# v2.0.0
+
+## Highlights
+
+- Renamed the public Go package from `slog` to `sneklog` to avoid confusion with the standard library `log/slog` package.
+- Moved the module path to `git.scuroneko.dev/scuroneko/sneklog/v2` for Go module major-version compatibility.
+- Replaced fixed text writer settings with formatter-based output customization.
+- Added built-in ANSI color support and removed the external `github.com/fatih/color` dependency tree.
+- Formatters: a new way do display your logs!
+
+## Breaking Changes
+
+- Import paths must use the `/v2` module suffix:
+
+```go
+import "git.scuroneko.dev/scuroneko/sneklog/v2"
+```
+
+- Package references should use `sneklog` instead of `slog`.
+- Removed `Logger.PrintTime` and `Logger.PrintTraceback`; configure output through writer formatters instead.
+- Changed text writer constructors:
+  - `CreateTextWriter(w, printTraceback, printTime)` is now `CreateTextWriter(w)`.
+  - `CreateTextFileWriter(path, printTraceback, printTime)` is now `CreateTextFileWriter(path)`.
+  - `CreateTextStdoutWriter(printTraceback, printTime)` is now `CreateTextStdoutWriter()`.
+- Removed the old text formatting helpers: `BuildString`, `FormatTime`, `FormatTraceback`, and `FormatFullTraceback`.
+- JSON `time` values are now formatted through the configured formatter and stored as strings in `LoggerJsonMessage`.
+
+## Added
+
+- `Formatter` for configurable message layouts, timestamp layouts, traceback layouts, separators, and color behavior.
+- `DefaultTextFormatter` and `DefaultJsonFormatter` defaults for text and JSON writers.
+- `LoggerTextWriter.SetFormatter` and `LoggerJsonWriter.SetFormatter`.
+- Strftime-like timestamp format constants such as `RFC3339`, `Kitchen`, `DateTime`, `DateOnly`, and `TimeOnly`.
+- Built-in color types and helpers:
+  - `FgColor`, `BgColor`, and `Attribute`.
+  - `ColorStringBuilder`.
+  - Level color getters/setters on `LogLevel`.
+- Tests covering formatter defaults, empty traceback placeholders, literal `%` sequences in messages, color controls, and JSON newline semantics.
+
+## Changed
+
+- Text output defaults to `DefaultTextFormatter` instead of the old hard-coded string builder.
+- JSON output defaults to `DefaultJsonFormatter` and can now format the JSON `message` field through `Formatter`.
+- Newline semantics are normalized before text and JSON formatting, so trailing `\n` controls record termination without becoming part of the message.
+- Text color output is enabled by default only for stdout/stderr.
+- Example code now demonstrates custom formatters and color configuration.
+- Go dependencies were simplified by removing:
+  - `github.com/fatih/color`
+  - `github.com/mattn/go-colorable`
+  - `github.com/mattn/go-isatty`
+  - `golang.org/x/sys`
+
+## Fixed
+
+- `NewFormatter()` now returns a fresh copy instead of mutating `DefaultTextFormatter`.
+- `Formatter.FormatMessage` no longer panics when called with an empty traceback.
+- Placeholder-looking text inside log messages, such as `%L` or `%s`, is preserved literally.
+- `SetColorOutput(false)` disables color output.
+- `SetColorOnlyStdout(false)` allows color output for non-stdout writers.
+
+## Migration
+
+Before:
+
+```go
+import "git.scuroneko.dev/scuroneko/slog"
+
+logger := slog.CreateLogger().
+	Prefix("API").
+	Level(slog.DEBUG).
+	PrintTraceback(true)
+
+text := logger.CreateTextStdoutWriter()
+```
+
+After:
+
+```go
+import sneklog "git.scuroneko.dev/scuroneko/sneklog/v2"
+
+logger := sneklog.CreateLogger().
+	Prefix("API").
+	Level(sneklog.DEBUG)
+
+formatter := sneklog.NewFormatter().
+	SetFormat("%t [%L] %N: %m (%B)")
+
+text := logger.CreateTextStdoutWriter().
+	SetFormatter(formatter)
+```
+
+# v1.2.0
+
+## Highlights
+
+- Added message replacement with `Logger.AddReplacer(old, new)` for masking secrets or normalizing log output.
+- Preserved the existing `LoggerWriter.Print(...any)` contract, so custom writers do not need a signature update.
+- Improved JSON writer newline handling for messages that already end with `\n`.
+
+## Added
+
+- `Logger.AddReplacer(old, new)` appends a replacement rule that is applied before records are sent to writers.
+- README and package GoDoc now document message replacement and include usage examples.
+- Tests covering message type preservation for custom writers, JSON empty messages, and JSON trailing newline behavior.
+
+## Fixed
+
+- `LoggerJsonWriter.Print` no longer panics when called with no message arguments.
+- `LoggerJsonWriter.Print` now treats a trailing newline at the end of the last message as newline semantics and does not include that newline in the JSON `message` field.
+- Log messages keep their original argument types for custom writers when no replacement rules are configured.
+
+## Changed
+
+- Updated the example program to demonstrate `AddReplacer`.
+- Updated dependencies:
+  - `github.com/fatih/color` from `v1.18.0` to `v1.19.0`
+  - `github.com/mattn/go-isatty` from `v0.0.20` to `v0.0.21`
+  - `golang.org/x/sys` from `v0.42.0` to `v0.43.0`
+
+## Compatibility
+
+No breaking API changes are intended in this release. The public `LoggerWriter` interface continues to accept `messages ...any`.
