Important

Review skipped

Review was skipped due to path filters

⛔ Files ignored due to path filters (1)

• snapcraft.yaml is excluded by !**/*.yaml

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.

You can disable this status message by setting the reviews.review_status to false in the CodeRabbit configuration file.

Walkthrough

The version constant in runner/banner.go is updated from v1.7.4 to v1.8.1, reflecting the current release version. This ensures the --version command displays the accurate version number.

In `@runner/banner.go`:
- Line 19: The const Version in runner/banner.go was updated to `v1.8.1` but
snapcraft.yaml still references `v1.7.4`; update the version string in
snapcraft.yaml to match `v1.8.1` so both places (runner/banner.go -> const
Version and snapcraft.yaml version field) are consistent.
