-    // BUG DESCRIPTION:
-    // When validate is called with a file list, it validates ALL provided files
-    // without checking if they match owned_globs configuration.
-    //
-    // CONFIGURATION:
-    // valid_project has: owned_globs = "**/*.{rb,tsx,erb}"
-    // Notice: .rbi files (Sorbet interface files) are NOT in this pattern
-    //
-    // EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
-    // - .rbi files should be SILENTLY SKIPPED (don't match owned_globs)
-    // - Only .rb files should be validated against CODEOWNERS
-    // - Command should SUCCEED because all validated files are owned
-    //
-    // ACTUAL BEHAVIOR (BUG):
-    // - ALL files are validated (including .rbi files)
-    // - .rbi files are not in CODEOWNERS (correctly excluded during generate)
-    // - .rbi files are reported as "Unowned"
-    // - Command FAILS with validation errors
-    //
-    // ROOT CAUSE:
-    // src/runner.rs lines 112-143: validate_files() iterates all file_paths
-    // without applying the owned_globs/unowned_globs filter that
-    // project_builder.rs:172 uses when no files are specified
-    //
-    // FIX NEEDED:
-    // Filter file_paths by owned_globs and unowned_globs before validation
-    // ============================================================================
+    // valid_project owned_globs: "{gems,config,javascript,ruby,components}/**/*.{rb,tsx,erb}"
