Can VELO verify any GitHub project?
VELO is designed for projects where the person can state a clear claim about what they built and what capability it demonstrates.
project verification
A repo is not proof.
A defense is.
VELO verifies project ownership by asking adaptive questions about implementation, tradeoffs, debugging, and design choices.
