- 2CI/CDEngineeringInfo
Add `tsc --noEmit`, `mypy`, or `cargo check` to catch type errors before they merge.
- 3CI/CDEngineeringInfo

- Rust workspace with test files detected. Run with `cargo test --workspace`.
- CI/CD85
Not applicable?
- CI is configured (.github/workflows/build.yml).
- CI workflow runs tests.
- CI runs on pull requests, not just on pushes to main.

- Optional: add type checking to CI.Add `tsc --noEmit`, `mypy`, or `cargo check` to catch type errors before they merge.
- Optional: report test coverage in CI.Upload coverage to Codecov, Coveralls, or report it with `--coverage` flags.
- CI caches dependencies for faster runs.
- CI tests across multiple environments or versions.
- Linting and formatting40
- Rust projects have clippy available. Run `cargo clippy` for linting.
- CI does not appear to run `cargo clippy` (−40 pts vs enforcing it in CI).Add `cargo clippy -- -D warnings` and `cargo fmt --check` as CI steps.
- No rustfmt.toml found.Add a rustfmt.toml to enforce a consistent code style across contributors.
- Reproducibility90
- Lockfile present (examples/embassy-stm32g4/Cargo.lock). Installs are reproducible.
- No Dockerfile or runtime version pin found. Adding one earns +10 pts.Add a Dockerfile, .nvmrc, or .python-version to pin the runtime version and make the environment reproducible.
