## 📊 Issue Breakdown

### Issue #1: Missing Test Dependency (Medium Priority)
**File:** `tests/test_server_fastmcp_http.py`
**Issue:** Missing `starlette` module for HTTP transport tests
**Impact:** Cannot run MCP HTTP tests (functionality works, just can't test)
**Fix Time:** 5 minutes
**Fix:** Add to `pyproject.toml`:
```toml
"starlette>=0.31.0",
"httpx>=0.24.0",
```

### Issues #2-5: Deprecation Warnings (Low Priority)
All future-compatibility warnings with clear migration paths:

1. **Pydantic V2 ConfigDict** (3 classes, 15 min)
   - Files: `src/skill_seekers/embedding/models.py`
   - Change: `class Config:` → `model_config = ConfigDict(...)`

2. **PyGithub Authentication** (1 file, 10 min)
   - File: `src/skill_seekers/cli/github_scraper.py:242`
   - Change: `Github(token)` → `Github(auth=Auth.Token(token))`

3. **pathspec Pattern** (2 files, 20 min)
   - Files: `github_scraper.py`, `codebase_scraper.py`
   - Change: Use `'gitignore'` pattern instead of `'gitwildmatch'`

4. **Test Class Naming** (2 classes, 10 min)
   - File: `src/skill_seekers/cli/test_example_extractor.py`
   - Change: `TestExample` → `ExtractedExample`

**Total Fix Time:** ~1 hour for all deprecation warnings
