Research direction

Use the Book.java and Author.java examples as the behavioral starting point, then locate the recipe entry point and comparable OpenRewrite recipes in the repository. Verify the recipe separates nested or additional classes into their own files and handles interfaces too; finish by running the relevant existing recipe tests or adding coverage if none is identified.
