**Source:** Project root
**Last Verified:** 2026-04-29
**Verification:** `./scripts/verify-docs.sh`
## Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- Rust 1.85+ (see [rust-toolchain](../rust-toolchain))
- Docker + Docker Compose
### Build
```bash
# Build all targets (includes fuzz targets, benchmarks)
cargo build --all-targets --all-features --verbose
# Expected: Completes in ~30s on M1/modern laptop
```
### Test
```bash
# All tests (71 unit tests)
cargo test --lib
# Expected: 71 passed
```
### Formatting
```bash
# Check formatting
cargo fmt -- --check
```
### Linting
```bash
# Tier 1: Critical lints (fail CI)
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features \
-D clippy::as_conversions \
-D clippy::unwrap_used \
-D clippy::indexing_slicing \
-D clippy::expect_used \
-D clippy::panic_in_result_fn \
-D clippy::missing_const_for_fn \
-D clippy::large_enum_variant
# Tier 2: Production hygiene
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features \
-D clippy::dbg_macro \
-D clippy::todo \
-D clippy::wildcard_imports
# Full lint
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -D warnings
```
### Security
```bash
# Supply chain audit (requires cargo-audit)
cargo audit
# License compliance (requires cargo-deny)
cargo deny check licenses advisories bans
```
### Coverage
```bash
# Generate coverage report (requires cargo-llvm-cov)
cargo llvm-cov --all-features --workspace --lcov --output-path lcov.info
cargo llvm-cov --all-features --workspace --summary-only
# Expected coverage: 47.14% total (see lcov.info for detail)
```
### Benchmarks
```bash
# Criterion benchmarks (requires nightly for some features)
cargo bench
```

## CI/CD
### GitHub Actions (`/.github/workflows/build.yml`)
```yaml
jobs:
lint:
# Tier 1 + Tier 2 checks
build:
# Cross-platform: ubuntu, macos, windows

## Contributing
### Adding New Documentation
1. Measure first (run the actual code)
2. Cite source (file:line)
3. Add verification commands
4. Store in this `docs/` directory
5. Run `./scripts/verify-docs.sh`
### Updating Existing Docs
1. Verify current behavior
2. Update measurement
3. Bump `Last Verified` timestamp
4. Run verification script
## Scripts
