Research direction

The report names no source file, test, or entry point. Start by reproducing the export from sandbox awesome-thunder-klb3i and inspect the GitHub export flow around the "No commit found for SHA: main" error. Done means exporting creates a GitHub repository containing the sandbox contents and a valid commit.
