⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Severity mismatch with PR objectives.

The PR description lists required_workflows as High priority, but the implementation uses medium severity. If CI passing is critical to prevent regressions, consider aligning the severity.

Suggested fix

     and prevent regressions, supporting the existing CI/CD setup.'
   enabled: true

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

In @.watchflow/rules.yaml around lines 9 - 15, The rule's severity is set to
"medium" but the PR and rule intent (required_workflows / description) indicate
this should be "high"; update the severity field in .watchflow/rules.yaml from
medium to high so the required_workflows rule enforces a high-priority check and
aligns with the PR objectives (look for the severity: medium entry associated
with the required_workflows description and change it to severity: high).
