- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the project's Python-version configuration and CI definitions, then identify every place that declares supported versions. Done means Python 3.9 support is deprecated and Python 3.14 support is added consistently, with relevant checks passing.
