Pre-merge checks

❌ Failed checks (1 inconclusive)
Check name Status Explanation Resolution
Title check ❓ Inconclusive The PR title 'Improve README with beginner-friendly contributiors' contains a typo ('contributiors' instead of 'contributors') and is only partially related to the changeset. While it references improving the README for beginners, it doesn't capture the main additions: Getting Started section, GSoC section, and Important Files listing. Correct the typo to 'contributors' and consider a more specific title like 'Add Getting Started and GSoC sections to README' to better reflect the actual changes made.

6-31: Great addition—content is clear and beginner-friendly.

The three new sections provide helpful structure for onboarding contributors and GSoC participants. The advice is practical, actionable, and aligns well with open-source best practices. Once the file references are verified, this will be a solid enhancement to the repository documentation.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Clarify the reference to match the actual filename.

Line 13 says "Go through the Communication Guidelines" but the file listed later is CommunicationGuidelinesAndRules.md. Either update the reference text to match the actual filename or ensure consistency across the document.

🔎 Proposed fix
- - Go through the Communication Guidelines
+ - Read the CommunicationGuidelinesAndRules.md file
📝 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.

Suggested change
- Go through the Communication Guidelines
- Read the CommunicationGuidelinesAndRules.md file
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In README.md around line 13, the text "Go through the Communication Guidelines"
does not match the actual filename `CommunicationGuidelinesAndRules.md`; update
the reference so they are consistent—either change the sentence to explicitly
reference `CommunicationGuidelinesAndRules.md` (e.g., "Go through
CommunicationGuidelinesAndRules.md") or rename the linked filename/anchor
elsewhere to use "Communication Guidelines" consistently; ensure any link
targets or table-of-contents entries are updated to match the chosen wording.
