## Purpose

Source: AI-written repository summary; verify against source.

> Retrofit is a type-safe HTTP client library for Android and Java that transforms HTTP APIs into strongly-typed Java/Kotlin interfaces through annotation-based code generation.

## Main parts

> HTTP Annotations & Contract: Public-facing decorators for defining REST endpoints and request/response handling.

## Evidence gaps

> Dependencies were not checked for known security issues. That does not mean there are none.
> RepoPilot has not run the setup commands or tests.
> No public API or start-up file could be picked out from the file names.
> 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.
