## Evidence gaps

> RepoPilot has not run the setup commands or tests.
> No public API or start-up file could be picked out from the file names.
> 3 suggested change patterns have no matching file and are left out.
> An installation or usage excerpt was not captured. Read the README for how to use the published project.
> Runtime versions and other prerequisites were not captured.
> Root development commands were not established. Check the root manifest and contributor guide.
> Setup has not been executed. Environment variables, external services and command order may require additional source documentation.
