The best way to enforce a zero-warnings policy during code review is to apply strict quality assurance checks that automate formatting, linting, and testing across the codebase immediately before the final merge.

Yes, you need just and pixi installed as dependencies to automate the final code cleanup phase, which runs quality checks and formats the code to prepare it for integration into the main branch.

You should refactor code after parallel development phases conclude and testing is complete, serving as the final stage of the development workflow to consolidate features and prepare the code for peer review and merging.

Yes, you can integrate this refactoring approach into CI/CD pipelines to automatically enforce SOLID principles, ensuring all code adheres to project standards and passes formatting and testing checks before merging.
