The placeholder '@your-username' should be replaced with the actual GitHub username. Lines 11, 14, 17, 20, 21, 24, and 25 all contain this placeholder that needs to be updated to '@CharlesPoulin' or the appropriate reviewer's username.

The example workflow uses outdated action versions. The repository's actual workflows use actions/checkout@v6 and astral-sh/setup-uv@v7. Update the documentation examples to match the versions used in the actual .github/workflows/ci.yml file for consistency.

Setting Dependabot to run daily may generate excessive PRs and noise. Weekly updates are typically more manageable for most projects. Consider whether daily updates align with the team's capacity to review dependency changes.
Introduce CODEOWNERS, Dependabot auto-merge workflow, and a comprehensive GitHub settings guide. Update issue and pull request templates for clarity and consistency. Enhance dependabot.yml with improved grouping, scheduling, and labeling. Improve README formatting and instructions.
