Research direction

Open README.md and locate the Help Wanted badge near the top and the Help Wanted link in the resources section. Add +OR+org%3Ablowhorn-ai to both search URLs while preserving the existing organizations. Verify that both links return help wanted issues from blowhorn-ai.

Description

The Help Wanted issue search in README.md currently covers several Layer5-related GitHub organizations, but it does not yet include the newly added blowhorn-ai organization.

The search link appears in two places in the README:

  • The Help Wanted badge near the top
  • The Help Wanted link in the resources section at the bottom

Both links should be updated to include blowhorn-ai.

Proposed Change

Add the following to the existing search query:

+OR+org%3Ablowhorn-ai

This will include open help wanted issues from the new organization while keeping the existing organizations in the search.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Update the Help Wanted badge at the top of the README.
  • Update the Help Wanted link at the bottom of the README.
  • Add +OR+org%3Ablowhorn-ai to both search URLs.
  • Verify that the updated links return help wanted issues from blowhorn-ai.
  • Preserve all existing organizations in the search.
