AI Summary: The task involves fixing static code analysis issues reported by `staticcheck` in the Lima project's Go codebase. These issues, related to incorrect error handling, primarily concern comparisons that are always true due to improper handling of the second return value from functions. The fix likely involves checking for and handling errors appropriately, potentially using the `errors.Is` function for more robust error checking. A similar fix is available for reference.
