…cies knip doesn't trace CSS @import directives or files in ignored directories, causing false positives for: - globals.css (used by build config and package exports) - tailwindcss/tw-animate-css (imported in globals.css) - json-schema-to-typescript (used in tools/generate-schema-types.ts) Co-authored-by: Isaac

LGTM. All four false positives are verified — CSS @import deps, CSS file tracking, and tools/ dependency are all genuine knip limitations. Explored switching tools/** from ignore to entry points but it surfaces more noise (unused file false positives for standalone scripts). The current approach is the pragmatic choice.
