Contributing

Working style

• Keep changes small and reviewable.
• Add or update docs when changing protocol, telemetry, state machine, safety, or data layout.
• Add tests for host-side state-machine and contract behavior before relying on hardware.
• Never hide clipping, rejected commands, or safety changes; emit explicit events/NACKs.

Definition of done for a feature

• Implementation exists.
• Test or bench verification exists.
• Relevant docs are updated.
• Safety or contract impact is stated.
• Antoine-facing open questions are listed if the decision is not locked.
