Research direction

Search the repository for Settings.StyleCop and stylecop.json to locate the legacy configuration and its references. Review the surrounding StyleCop.Analyzers setup before making the replacement, then verify that the intended configuration uses stylecop.json and that obsolete Settings.StyleCop references are gone.
