Description

The python AST module would make it really easy to scan every file in a robot project and find explicit imports, associate them with particular packages, and then check to see if those are installed on the rio. It could suggest adding those components at deploy time or something.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by tracing the deploy path in robotpy-installer and reviewing how robot projects, packages, and installed components on the rio are currently represented. Before implementation, define the exact import-to-package mapping, suggestion behavior, and checks that would constitute done.
