Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the deceptive-site flag for eigenfoundation.org and tracing the MetaMask extension's warning flow. Done means the valid project is no longer incorrectly flagged, with the relevant regression coverage added if the existing test structure supports it.
