Summary
This PR clarifies how CVE Lite CLI describes remediation in the README.
A reviewer raised a good question about the phrase “guided remediation” in malicious package scenarios. In those cases, upgrading dependencies alone is not enough. Teams may also need to treat the situation as a potential security incident.

CVE Lite CLI helps developers:
It is not positioned as an incident-response or compromise-forensics tool.
