+## CRITICAL - Always Follow
+
+After completing ANY code changes:
+1. **MUST** run `cargo fmt --all && make lint-fix` to format and fix linting issues
+2. **MUST** run `cargo check` to verify compilation before considering task complete
+
+Run `make install-hooks` if you have not already to install git hooks. Never skip git hooks. If cargo is not available install the toolchain.
