Top three things to fix
Add feed_info.txt with feed_start_date and feed_end_date to your export.
feed_info.txt is missing its start/end dates (the file itself is absent) Apps and this scorecard can't warn anyone before the feed goes stale without stated validity dates.
Effort: Two fields, set once in export settings.
Add feed_info.txt with publisher name, URL, language, and feed_start_date/feed_end_date.
A file GTFS asks for (usually feed_info.txt) is missing. feed_info.txt tells apps who publishes the feed and when it expires; without it nobody is warned before data goes stale.
Effort: One small file, set once in export settings.
Add feed_contact_email to feed_info.txt.
feed_info.txt has no technical contact (feed_contact_email or feed_contact_url). Trip-planning apps and regional data coordinators have nobody to email when they spot a problem with your feed, so problems linger.
Effort: One field.
