📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Do not make commit compliance depend on an assumption about squash.
Line 56 allows looser headers when a contributor expects the commits to be squashed. Maintainers may merge without squashing. State that the exception applies only when maintainers confirm the squash, and require the final squashed commit to conform.
Suggested wording
-The **header** is mandatory (it can be looser if you expect the commits to be
-squashed):
+The **header** is mandatory unless maintainers confirm that the pull request
+will be squashed. The final squashed commit must conform.📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Tell manual installers to rename the release asset.
The release workflow publishes names such as soar-x86_64-linux. Placing that file on PATH does not create the soar command used below. Tell users to make the file executable and rename it to soar, or link directly to the detailed installation steps. (github.com/ghraw)

- and drop the binary on your `PATH`.

Correct the security claim
The installer verifies a checksum or a valid package signature, not both. Local packages and --no-verify bypass these checks. GHCR packages use digest verification instead of package signatures. Update the description to state the supported integrity guarantees accurately.
