Research direction
Start by reading the existing versionguardcheck program and its custom tests. Review the golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis, singlechecker, and analysistest entry points, then confirm that the analyzer is exposed through analysis.Analyzer, main uses singlechecker.Main, and the tests use analysistest with the new dependency recorded.
