 ### Changed
 
 - Removed unreachable code path in m3u output - Thanks [@DawtCom](https://github.com/DawtCom)
+- GitHub Actions workflows now use `docker/metadata-action` for cleaner and more maintainable OCI-compliant image label generation across all build pipelines (ci.yml, base-image.yml, release.yml). Labels are applied to both platform-specific images and multi-arch manifests with proper annotation formatting.
 
 ### Fixed
