32-34: Review Interview Question Punctuation.
Consider revising the interview question on line 34 to improve clarity. For example, adding a comma before “and” can help separate the two independent clauses:- - What challenges do dynamic inventory sources present and how can you mitigate them? + - What challenges do dynamic inventory sources present, and how can you mitigate them?🧰 Tools

[uncategorized] ~34-~34: Use a comma before ‘and’ if it connects two independent clauses (unless they are closely connected and short).

143-147: Check Terminology Consistency.
Static analysis suggests reviewing the spelling of “multi-environment” on lines 143 and 147. If the project’s style guide prefers a single-word form (e.g., “multienvironment”), please update accordingly for consistency.🧰 Tools

157-160: Suggest Specifying Code Block Language.
The fenced code block displaying the PR title (lines 158–160) currently does not specify a language. For better markdown linting and clarity, consider adding a language identifier (for example,text):- ``` - Week 9 Challenge - Ansible Automation Challenge - ``` + ```text + Week 9 Challenge - Ansible Automation Challenge + ```🧰 Tools
