# Quality Gates and Validation Rules

## Automated Quality Checks

This project enforces quality through automated validation:

### Code Quality
- **Linting**: {{linter_config}}
- **Type Checking**: {{type_checker}}
- **Test Coverage**: Minimum {{test_coverage_threshold}}%
- **Documentation**: All public APIs documented

### Security Validation
- **Dependency Scanning**: {{security_scanner}}
- **Static Analysis**: {{sast_tools}}
- **Secret Detection**: No hardcoded secrets
- **Vulnerability Checks**: {{vulnerability_scanner}}

### Performance Gates
- **Build Time**: Maximum {{max_build_time}} minutes
- **Bundle Size**: {{max_bundle_size}} limit
- **Memory Usage**: {{memory_threshold}} threshold
- **Load Time**: {{performance_budget}} budget

## Validation Rules

### Pre-commit Hooks
```bash
{{pre_commit_hooks}}
```

### CI/CD Pipeline
```yaml
{{ci_pipeline_config}}
```

### Manual Review Requirements
- [ ] Code follows project patterns
- [ ] Tests cover edge cases
- [ ] Documentation updated
- [ ] Breaking changes documented
- [ ] Security implications reviewed

## Quality Metrics

Track these metrics for continuous improvement:

| Metric | Target | Current |
|--------|--------|---------|
| Test Coverage | {{test_coverage_target}}% | {{current_coverage}}% |
| Code Duplication | <{{max_duplication}}% | {{current_duplication}}% |
| Technical Debt | <{{max_debt_hours}}h | {{current_debt}}h |
| Bug Density | <{{max_bugs_per_kloc}} | {{current_bug_density}} |

## Enforcement Levels

- Type errors

### 🟡 Warning (Should Fix)
- Performance regressions
- Code smells
- Missing documentation
- Low test coverage

### 🔵 Info (Nice to Fix)
- Code style suggestions
- Optimization opportunities
