Before Committing

Before committing any changes, you MUST follow the instructions in Before Submitting a PR and ensure the required checks listed there pass. Do not commit code that fails any of those checks.

At a minimum, you MUST run and fix any errors from these commands before committing:

# Format code
cargo fmt --all

# Lint (must pass with no warnings)
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings

You can also run the full lint suite used by CI:

./dev/rust_lint.sh
# or auto-fix: ./dev/rust_lint.sh --write --allow-dirty

When creating a PR, you MUST follow the PR template.

Testing

See the Testing Quick Start for the recommended pre-PR test commands.
