Description
Description of the bug
A few repositories have directories that do not contain algorithms but mostly scripts or other utilities in the same language (e.g.: Nim repository with Nim scripts or Python).
It'd be great if we could add an option to ignore certain directories or ignore scripts by default.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points, so first trace how repositories and their directories are discovered and configured. Done should mean that each repository can specify directories to ignore, with an option to ignore scripts by default, and those directories no longer appear as algorithm content.
