    - Note: name, description, primary language(s), topics/tags, any frameworks or libraries mentioned in the README
+   - If the repository represents an independent technical project (not an empty stub or uncustomized fork), extract a project summary (problem domain, tech stack, and demonstrable technical results) for consideration under Independent Projects
 3. Also retrieve the full repository list if available (to catch unpinned repos)
