Version should be "0.5.0", as set in "binder.el".

Guix does not use MELPA as upstream because tarballs are not reliable.
Please use Codeberg repository instead.

"binder-mode" -> "Binder mode".

"binder-project-directory" -> "@code{binder-project-directory}".

I don’t think the last sentence is useful in the description as it
merely describes the internals of the package. I suggest to remove it.
If you absolutely want to keep it, I suggest to apply proper markup:
".binder.el" -> "@file{.binder.el}".

Could you send an updated patch?
