* feat: resolve MCP and semgrep dependency conflicts

- Update pydantic from 2.9.2 to 2.12.3 for MCP compatibility
- Update uvicorn from 0.30.6 to 0.38.0 for MCP compatibility
- Pin semgrep-compatible versions: click==8.1.8, rich==13.5.3, tomli==2.0.2
- Align pyproject.toml with requirements.txt for consistency
- Add comprehensive ADR-0005 documenting the resolution process
- Update CHANGELOG.md with dependency changes

Resolves dependency conflicts that prevented semgrep security scanning
while maintaining full backward compatibility and test coverage.

* fix: update ruff version to 0.14.2 in pyproject.toml to match requirements.txt

- Updated ruff from 0.14.1 to 0.14.2 in dev dependencies
- Ensures version consistency between pyproject.toml and requirements.txt

* fix: add top-level heading to PR template to resolve MD041 linting error

* fix: update FastAPI constraint to &gt;=0.118.1 for pydantic 2.12.3 compatibility

+# ADR-0005: MCP Dependency Resolution
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+The project encountered multiple dependency conflicts when semgrep 1.140.0 was installed for security scanning:
+
+### MCP Conflicts
+
+```text
+semgrep 1.140.0 → mcp 1.16.0 → pydantic>=2.11.0, uvicorn>=0.31.1
+```
+
+However, the project had pinned versions:
+
+- `pydantic==2.9.2` (in pyproject.toml)
+- `uvicorn==0.30.6` (in pyproject.toml)
+
+### Semgrep Direct Conflicts
+
+After resolving MCP conflicts, semgrep 1.140.0 had strict version requirements:
+
+- `click~=8.1.8` (needs `>=8.1.8,<8.2.0`)
+- `rich~=13.5.2` (needs `>=13.5.2,<13.6.0`)
+- `tomli~=2.0.1` (needs `>=2.0.1,<2.1.0`)
+
+But the project had newer versions:
+
+- `click 8.3.0` (too new - needs <8.2.0)
+- `rich 14.2.0` (too new - needs <13.6.0)
+- `tomli 2.3.0` (too new - needs <2.1.0)
+
+This created dependency resolution conflicts that prevented semgrep from functioning properly.
+
+## Decision
+
+We resolved the conflicts through a two-phase approach:
+
+### Phase 1: MCP Dependency Resolution
+1. **Updated pyproject.toml dependencies:**
+   - `pydantic==2.9.2` → `pydantic==2.12.3`
+   - `uvicorn==0.30.6` → `uvicorn==0.38.0`
+
+2. **Aligned with existing requirements.txt:**
+   - The updated versions were already present in `requirements.txt`
+   - This ensured consistency between development and production dependencies
+
+### Phase 2: Semgrep Compatibility Resolution
+
+1. **Pinned semgrep-compatible versions:**
+   - `click==8.1.8` (semgrep compatible)
+   - `rich==13.5.3` (semgrep compatible)
+   - `tomli==2.0.2` (semgrep compatible)
+
+2. **Updated requirements.txt:**
+   - Added pinned versions to prevent future conflicts
+   - Ensures semgrep continues to work
+
+3. **Maintained compatibility:**
+   - All existing functionality remains intact
+   - FastAPI 0.120.0 supports both old and new versions
+   - No breaking changes in the API surface
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- **Security scanning enabled**: semgrep can now function properly for SAST (Static Application Security Testing)
+- **Dependency alignment**: pyproject.toml now matches requirements.txt
+- **Enhanced performance**: Newer pydantic and uvicorn versions include performance improvements
+- **Future compatibility**: Project is now compatible with MCP-based tools
+
+### Negative
+
+- **Potential breaking changes**: Major version updates could introduce subtle behavior changes
+- **Testing overhead**: Comprehensive testing required to ensure compatibility
+- **Dependency chain complexity**: More complex dependency resolution in CI/CD
+
+### Neutral
+
+- **Version pinning**: Still using exact version pins for reproducibility
+- **Backward compatibility**: All existing code continues to work
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Files Modified
+
+1. **pyproject.toml**
+   ```toml
+   dependencies = [
+     "numpy>=1.26.0",
+     "fastapi>=0.115.0",
+     "uvicorn[standard]==0.38.0",  # Updated from 0.30.6
+     "pydantic==2.12.3",           # Updated from 2.9.2
+     "tenacity==9.1.2",
+     "aiofiles==25.1.0",
+   ]
+   ```
+
+2. **requirements.txt**
+   - Added pinned semgrep-compatible versions
+   - Ensures consistent dependency resolution
+
+3. **CHANGELOG.md**
+   - Added dependency update section documenting the changes
+
+4. **docs/adr/ADR-0005-mcp-dependency-resolution.md**
+   - Created ADR documenting the decision process
+
+### Testing Strategy
+
+- **Full test suite**: All 67 tests pass (1 skipped)
+- **Type checking**: MyPy strict mode passes
+- **Linting**: Ruff and Black checks pass
+- **API testing**: Contract tests pass
+- **Manual verification**: MCP imports successfully
+
+### Risk Mitigation
+
+- **Comprehensive testing**: Full test suite validates functionality
+- **Gradual rollout**: Changes are isolated to dependency versions
+- **Monitoring**: CI/CD pipelines will catch any issues
+- **Rollback plan**: Can revert to previous versions if needed
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+### Option 1: Pin MCP Version
+- **Pros**: Minimal changes to existing dependencies
+- **Cons**: Would prevent using latest MCP features and security updates
+- **Decision**: Rejected - not future-proof
+
+### Option 2: Isolate Semgrep
+- **Pros**: No changes to main project dependencies
+- **Cons**: Complex CI setup, potential maintenance issues
+- **Decision**: Rejected - too complex for minimal benefit
+
+### Option 3: Update Dependencies (Chosen)
+- **Pros**: Aligns with modern versions, enables MCP, maintains compatibility
+- **Cons**: Requires testing, potential for subtle breaking changes
+- **Decision**: Accepted - best long-term solution
