repo-conventions

Standardize engineering conventions across a repository by enforcing consistent architecture, API style, and testing norms. This requires centralizing documented standards in files like architecture.md, api-style.md, and testing.md to satisfy governance goals.

Document module boundaries and dependency rules using centralized architecture notes. Defining these structural constraints aligns teams and ensures consistent data flows across all modules within the repository.

Enforce API design and testing practices across services by standardizing naming, error handling, and validation rules. Documenting these conventions in an api-style.md file ensures all services follow the same engineering quality norms.

Document deployment and release norms including versioning, release workflows, and rollback expectations. Standardizing these deployment conventions streamlines releases and ensures consistent operational practices across the repository.

Yes, satisfying repository governance goals requires centralized references under the references/ directory. You must document standards in architecture.md, api-style.md, and testing.md to properly enforce engineering conventions.

Centralized references for repository conventions are needed when onboarding new scenarios or enforcing quality goals. They ensure all modules automatically follow documented architecture, API style, and testing norms without manual intervention.
