Description

Currently no additional includes paths are being passed to the analysis. This may lead to false positives or findings not being reported at all.

We should also indicate that a non-system include wasn't found in the editor (albeit optional).

These need to be made available to the plugin and it seems they are not available yet.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate current include path handling in the plugin and determine how to pass additional include paths from the editor configuration to the analysis.
