## Summary

Closes #25 — adds `CITATION.cff` to the repo root to enable GitHub's
native "Cite this repository" button, making it easy for researchers
to cite VibeBench correctly in their papers.

## File Added

**`CITATION.cff`**
```yaml
cff-version: 1.2.0
message: "If you use VibeBench, please cite it as below."
authors:
  - family-names: Arif
    given-names: Muktadir
    orcid: "https://orcid.org/0009-0005-6412-8980"
title: "VibeBench: An Automated Framework for the Holistic Evaluation of LLM-Generated Code"
version: 1.2.0
doi: 10.5281/zenodo.18758578
date-released: 2026-03-09
url: "https://github.com/umayer16/VIBEBENCH"
```

## Why This Matters

- GitHub automatically detects `CITATION.cff` and surfaces a
  **"Cite this repository"** button on the repo page
- Researchers can export the citation in APA, BibTeX, and other
  formats with one click
- JOSS reviewers expect software to be citable — this makes the
  citation metadata machine-readable and formally versioned against
  the Zenodo DOI
