Also please use link to the script:

And to the lapi directory:

-do in lapi/ directory.
+do in headers in :master:`include/lapi/`.

(I'm not sure whether you just overlooked it or you don't see it useful.)

I would personally mention staging runtest file, but maybe I overlook your

:master:`runtest/staging`
