Incomplete documentation

How complete the published files are for rebuilding this robot, measured by Robotheca at commit a978779. It isn't a rating of the robot.

3D and CAD files20/20
6 printable parts (STL, 3MF), 10 CAD source files.
Robot description0/15
No URDF.
Add a URDF: the robot can then be seen in 3D and tried in the browser.
Parts list0/20
No parts list in the repository or linked.
Most points to gain: Link to your parts list, or add it to the repository (a CSV or a Markdown table) with quantities, prices and where to buy each part.
Software15/15
Code in this repository, instructions to install or run it, built on arduino.
Documentation0/15
README of 154 characters with 0 pictures; 0 build steps.
Write a README of at least 1,500 characters: what the robot does and how to build it. Split the build into at least 3 steps. Show the robot and its assembly in pictures in the README.
Simulation0/5
No simulation files.
Add a simulation model (MuJoCo, Gazebo, Webots or Isaac).
Licenses10/10
Hardware: GPL-3.0-only; software: GPL-3.0-only.

Written by Robotheca from the project's documents.

Open the Arduino sketch for the desired episode folder (for example Part8 or part17) in the Arduino IDE
Upload the sketch to the Arduino board
The README does not describe further setup steps

Robotheca doesn't review code. Read it before running it.
