Poem

🐰
In the burrow of repos I tidy the trails,
Snipping broad vines into neat little rails.
Each file now knows who guards day and night,
No overlaps muddle the keepers’ sight.
Hooray for clean rules — a hop and delight! 🥕

In @.github/CODEOWNERS:
- Around line 3-6: Update the CODEOWNERS entries so the listed filenames are
anchored to the repository root by prefixing them with a leading slash: change
package.json, package-lock.json and .remarkrc to /package.json,
/package-lock.json and /.remarkrc respectively to avoid matching those names in
nested directories; ensure the ownership tokens (e.g.,
`@hiero-ledger/hiero-website-maintainers` and `@hiero-ledger/github-maintainers`)
remain unchanged.
