New in this release:

- /v1/report endpoint that can return Markdown for PR comments
- GitHub Action to generate the report + optionally post/gate on thresholds
- AWS RI/SP recommendations, plus All Accounts rollups and per-account data quality indicators
Would love feedback:
1) What signals/thresholds would make CI cost checks useful without becoming PR spam?
2) What’s your bar for auth/security + least-privilege for a tool like this?
