Problem

The default for patterns-files is README.md:

patternsFiles := flag.String("patterns-files", envOrDefault("PATTERNS_FILES", "README.md"), ...)

This means if you set patterns-repo but omit patterns-files, you only get the README — not the actual pattern files.

Expected Behavior

The common case is "fetch all pattern files from the repo". Users who set patterns-repo: rodin/security-patterns expect to get all 20+ pattern files, not just the README.

Fix

Change default from README.md to "" (empty string), which fetches all files in the repo root.

patternsFiles := flag.String("patterns-files", envOrDefault("PATTERNS_FILES", ""), ...)

Users who only want specific files can still set patterns-files: README.md,patterns/foo.md explicitly.
