+This project uses Husky and lint-staged to automatically lint, format, and type-check staged files before commits.
 When you run `git commit`, the following happens automatically:
 
 1. Prettier formats all staged `.js`, `.jsx`, `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.json`, and `.md` files
 2. ESLint runs with `--fix` on all staged TypeScript/JavaScript files

+3. **TypeScript type-check runs (only if `.ts` or `.tsx` files are staged)**
+4. If any issues can't be auto-fixed or type errors exist, the commit is blocked

+**Performance impact:**

+- Non-TypeScript commits: ~2-3 seconds (no change)

+### CI/CD Pipeline
+
+All pull requests to `main` must pass automated checks via GitHub Actions:
+
+- ✅ TypeScript type-check (`npm run type-check`)
+- ✅ ESLint validation (`npm run lint`)
+- ✅ Prettier format check (`npm run format:check`)
+- ✅ Test suite (`npm run test`)
+
+**CI runs on:**

+- All pull requests targeting `main`
+- Direct pushes to `main` branch
