Code Review
This pull request replaces the generic placeholder API keys with 'REDACTED_BY_JULES' in both JULES_API.md and README.md. The reviewer correctly notes that these changes are likely false positives from an automated secret scanner and recommends reverting them to maintain clear and intuitive documentation for users.
Important

The original value 'your-api-key-here' is a generic placeholder intended to guide users on where to insert their actual API key. Replacing it with 'REDACTED_BY_JULES' is likely a false positive from an automated secret scanner and makes the documentation less clear. It is recommended to revert this change to keep the placeholder intuitive.
