   ```

   Setup instructions:

   - Go to https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/
   - Create token scoped to grai-build project
   - Add to GitHub: Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions

2. **Codecov (Optional)**

   ```
   CODECOV_TOKEN           # For coverage reporting
   ```

   Setup instructions:

   - Go to https://codecov.io/
   - Connect GitHub repository
   - Copy upload token
   - Add to GitHub secrets

### Repository Settings

- [ ] **Enable Branch Protection** (Settings → Branches)

  - Require PR reviews before merging
  - Require status checks to pass (CI workflow)
  - Require branches to be up to date
