The link targets the devfile/api main branch, but the target GOVERNANCE.md currently has no AI Governance heading or ai-governance anchor. Contributors cannot access the requirements referenced here. Add the target section first, or link to the authoritative document that contains these requirements. Update the same URL in .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md line 21. (github.com)
