1. Scope+version

1. DEFINE install | config | findings | baseline | suppression | type resolution | report/CI | extension | 1.x->2.x migration.
2. INSPECT repository release policy, current plugin/CLI version, Kotlin/Gradle/AGP/JDK/JVM target, modules/source sets/variants, existing config/baselines/reports/plugins.
3. READ current intro, changelog, and compatibility before version changes.
4. PRESERVE existing major unless migration requested. New project: 2.x only if prerelease policy accepts alpha; otherwise latest stable 1.x.
5. 1.x->2.x -> READ references/migration-2.md before edits.

2. Inspect

python3 scripts/inspect-project.py --root . --json
