Description

Clear, documented coding standards keep the codebase consistent and make it easier for new contributors (and Copilot) to produce correct changes. We need to refresh our standards to cover TypeScript formatting rules and docstring/comment expectations so that frontend and backend code follow a single, well-understood convention.

Acceptance criteria

  • TypeScript formatting rules are documented and, where possible, enforced through ESLint
  • Docstring and comment expectations are documented for both Python and TypeScript
  • The relevant .github/instructions files are updated to reflect the standards
  • The README links to or summarizes the updated coding standards
  • scripts/run-lint.sh passes with any newly added rules

Research direction

Review the relevant .github/instructions files, the README, and scripts/run-lint.sh to understand the existing standards and lint workflow. Document TypeScript formatting plus Python and TypeScript docstring/comment expectations, update the instruction files, and link to or summarize the standards in the README. Run scripts/run-lint.sh and confirm it passes with any added rules.
