When invoked, produce a complete repository package with:

4. Governance files:
   - LICENSE
   - CONTRIBUTING.md
   - CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
   - SECURITY.md
   - issue templates + PR template
5. CI recommendations and baseline workflows.
6. Launch + maintenance checklist.
7. Practical “gold tips” for discoverability and maintainability.
