Research direction

The issue names no files, scripts or tests, so start by reading the README and any existing install instructions to see what packaging exists today. Settle the repo layout and release expectations with a maintainer before editing anything. Done means a maintainer-facing COPR doc and any agreed metadata changes, with the scope confirmed in the issue thread.
