-# Repository Guidelines
-
-## Project Structure & Module Organization
-- Source: package `underscore` in repo root (`*.go`).
-- Tests: co-located `*_test.go` files in root; examples in `examples/`.
-- Module: `github.com/rjNemo/underscore` (Go 1.24+).
-- Docs: Hugo site under `docs/` (content, themes, public).
-- CI/Security assets: Dockerfile(s), `.golangci.yml`, `.trivycache/`.
-
-## Build, Test, and Development Commands
-- `go mod download`: fetch dependencies for local dev.
-- `go test ./...`: run unit tests locally.
-- `make build`: build Docker image `underscore:latest`.
-- `make test`: run tests in Docker with coverage summary.
-- `make docs`: serve docs locally (`cd docs && hugo server -D`).
-- `make build-docs`: build static docs site.
-- `make scan` / `make scan-config`: security scan with Trivy (image/config).
-
-## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
-- Formatting: `gofmt`/`goimports` (enforced via `golangci-lint`).
-- Lint: `golangci-lint run` (uses `.golangci.yml`).
-- Indentation: tabs; idiomatic Go style.
-- Naming: exported APIs use PascalCase (e.g., `Filter`, `Map`); files are lower_snake (`filter.go`).
-- Imports: group stdlib/external/local; local prefix `github.com/rjNemo/underscore`.
-
-## Testing Guidelines
-- Frameworks: Go `testing` with `testify` assertions.
-- Conventions: `TestXxx` functions; prefer table-driven tests.
-- Coverage: keep or increase overall coverage; `make test` prints summary.
-- Run subset: `go test ./... -run TestFilter` for focused runs.
-
-## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
-- Commits: imperative, concise subject; include scope when helpful.
-- Before PR: `golangci-lint run` and `make test` must pass.
-- PRs: clear description, linked issues, tests for new/changed behavior, update README/docs when API changes.
-- Reviews: follow CONTRIBUTING; require two approvals before merge.
-
-## Security & Configuration Tips
-- Go 1.24+ recommended; Docker image pins Go 1.24.
-- Do not commit secrets; prefer environment variables for local runs.
-- Use `make scan` regularly; fix CRITICAL findings before release.
