Research direction

Start by tracing how the controller generates Cloud Firewall rules and where the 10 default rules are defined. Check how rules are grouped by protocol or prefix and verify the result stays within the 25-rule limit while reducing the defaults to 6. The issue names no files or tests, so locate the relevant Go entry point and existing rule-generation tests first.
