Research direction

Start with auto_triage.py and the listed /encode-bill CA {BILL} commands to understand how bill triage and encoding are connected. The issue lists multiple unchecked bills, but it does not identify one target bill, the files to change, or acceptance criteria, so what constitutes completion is unclear.
