This version has ὁδηγοί, but the version in https://github.com/LogosBible/SBLGNT/data/sblgnt/text has ὁδηγοὶ. Looking at Wikipedia's description of the "Oxytone words: Change to grave" rule [1], it seems like ὁδηγοὶ would be correct, since it's followed by a non-enclitic word (τυφλῶν).

This version has θέλοντές, but the version in https://github.com/LogosBible/SBLGNT/data/sblgnt/text has θέλοντες. The notes mention the alternate accent [1]: Luke 8:20 20 ἀπηγγέλη δὲ WH Treg NA28 ] Καὶ ἀπηγγέλη RP • αὐτῷ WH Treg NA28 ] + λέγοντων RP • σε θέλοντες RP ] θέλοντές σε WH Treg NA28 So it seems reasonable to assume the lack of accent was intended.

This version has εὑρήσετέ, but the version in https://github.com/LogosBible/SBLGNT/data/sblgnt/text has εὑρήσετε. Then sblgntapp entry[1] regarding the verses repeat the lack of accent in both cases: John 7:34 34 εὑρήσετε Treg RP ] + με WH NA28 John 7:36 36 ὁ λόγος οὗτος WH Treg NA28 ] οὗτος ὁ λόγος RP • εὑρήσετε Treg RP ] + με WH NA28 esv.org also has no accent at the end (in both cases), although greekbible.com does (but has [με] in brackets afterwards). On the whole it seems likely that the lack of accent in sblgnt was intentional.

This version has ἐστιν, but the version in https://github.com/LogosBible/SBLGNT/data/sblgnt/text has ἐστίν. There are no notes; esv.org has ἐστίν, and greekbible.com has ἐστιν. Less clear than the others, but on the whole I'm inclined to think it's worth changing here until someone verifies that the SBLGNT version in the repo is wrong.

I happened to do some cross-checking between this data source the text at https://github.com/LogosBible/SBLGNT/data/sblgnt/text, and found a number of discrepancies in the accents. The majority of them seem to be related to rules pertaining to Changing Oxyone accents to grave.
In each case I've attempted to combine the rule, as well as the SBLGNT textual notes (when available), and accents of similar verses in other texts (namely those available from esv.org and greekbible.com).
Thanks for making this available, and I hope this helps.
