Important

Review skipped

Review was skipped due to path filters

⛔ Files ignored due to path filters (1)

• poetry.lock is excluded by !**/*.lock

CodeRabbit blocks several paths by default. You can override this behavior by explicitly including those paths in the path filters. For example, including **/dist/** will override the default block on the dist directory, by removing the pattern from both the lists.

Backoff might not be the path forward maybe... but this will close the raised gap for now for sure!

Thanks @mik-laj!
