Description

Before the project is closed, we'd like to capture a simple summary of where things ended up. This isn't intended to duplicate the design document, but instead provide a quick reference for anyone picking the project up in the future.

## Task

Create a markdown document (for example `docs/project-handover.md`) containing a concise summary of the project's final state.

It doesn't need to be a long document—bullet points are encouraged.

Suggested sections include:

### What was delivered

* Major features completed
* New components/modules added
* Documentation produced
* Tests added
* Anything else worth highlighting

### What's partially complete

* Features started but not finished
* Areas that still need refinement
* Known rough edges

### Future enhancements

* Nice-to-have features
* Ideas identified during the project
* Potential performance improvements
* Additional log sources or AI capabilities
* Other follow-on work

### Known limitations

* Current constraints
* Technical debt
* Assumptions made during implementation

### Notes for future maintainers

* Anything someone new to the project should know
* Helpful pointers into the codebase
* Areas that would benefit from refactoring
* Any lessons learned that could save future contributors time

## Acceptance Criteria

* [ ] Summary document added to the repository.
* [ ] Delivered functionality summarised.
* [ ] Partially completed work identified.
* [ ] Future enhancement ideas captured.
* [ ] Known limitations documented.
* [ ] Useful notes provided for future contributors.

The goal is simply to leave the project in a state where the next contributor can quickly understand where things stand without needing to read every issue, pull request, or commit.

Research direction

Create docs/project-handover.md, using the repository's existing documentation and project contents to identify what was delivered, what remains incomplete, future ideas, limitations, and maintainer notes. Check the acceptance criteria in this issue; done means the summary is added and all requested project-status areas are covered.
