In `@CHANGELOG.md`:
- Around line 10-12: Insert a blank line between the release header "## [0.7.9]
- 2026-02-18" and the following "Changed:" label so the section follows the same
format as other entries; update the block containing the header "## [0.7.9] -
2026-02-18" and the "Changed:" line to include one empty line immediately after
the header.

@SoulPancake before we release, can you bump go mod so that we target 1.25 and toolchain should be go1.26.0?

Just to get that out of the way

Also after you do that, can you check if any dependencies need updating?
