Review Comment:
   Apache RAT exclude files are commonly interpreted as regular expressions 
(depending on how RAT is invoked). The patterns `**/*.patch` and 
`**/__init__.py` are not valid regex and can either fail parsing or not exclude 
anything, making the RAT check unreliable. Prefer using RAT-compatible regex 
patterns (e.g., `.*\\.patch$`, `.*/__init__\\.py$`) and consider escaping dots 
in literal filenames to avoid accidental matches.

Review Comment:
   Using `make rat` ties the workflow to the Makefiles generator. To make this 
step generator-agnostic (e.g., Ninja), invoke the build via CMake (e.g., 
building the `rat` target through the configured generator) from the build 
directory.

Review Comment:
   The workflow downloads and executes tooling (Apache RAT) without any 
integrity verification. To reduce supply-chain risk, verify the artifact (e.g., 
pinned SHA-512) and/or verify the Apache signature before extracting and using 
the jar.
