Contracts Contributor Checklist

Use this checklist before opening a contracts PR.

Environment

• Install Rust 1.88.0 and add the wasm32-unknown-unknown target.
• Install clippy and rustfmt components.
• Use the contracts quickstart for first-time setup.
• Use the contracts testing and linting guide for exact commands.

Validation

• Run focused tests for every contract you changed.
• Build every changed contract for wasm32-unknown-unknown --release.
• Run cargo clippy -- -D warnings in every changed contract directory.
• Run cargo fmt -- --check in every changed contract directory.
• If a change spans multiple contracts or shared crates, run the CI-parity sweep from TESTING.md.

Behavior checks

• Add or update tests for new storage, auth, and ledger-timing behavior.
• Prefer explicit assertions for balances, events, and status transitions.
• Use snapshot-style assertions only when serialized payloads are large or repetitive and the output shape is intentionally stable.
• Update any contributor-facing docs when commands or workflows change.

Before review

• Confirm new docs link back to the docs index when they are meant to be entry points.
• Keep contract-specific command examples aligned with TESTING.md.
• Include the exact validation commands you ran in the PR description.
