Quality Report

- name: Generate quality report
  run: |
    cat > quality-report.md << EOF
    # Quality Report

    ## Coverage
    - Lines: $(node -p "require('./coverage/coverage-summary.json').total.lines.pct")%
    - Branches: $(node -p "require('./coverage/coverage-summary.json').total.branches.pct")%
    - Functions: $(node -p "require('./coverage/coverage-summary.json').total.functions.pct")%

    ## Linting
    - ESLint warnings: $(npm run lint 2>&1 | grep -c warning || echo 0)
    - ESLint errors: $(npm run lint 2>&1 | grep -c error || echo 0)

    ## Type Safety
    - TypeScript errors: $(npx tsc --noEmit 2>&1 | grep -c error || echo 0)

    ## Security
    - Vulnerabilities: $(npm audit --json | jq '.metadata.vulnerabilities.total')

    ## Bundle Size
    - Main bundle: $(ls -lh dist/main.js | awk '{print $5}')
    EOF

Best Practices

1. Strict thresholds: No compromises on quality
2. Fast feedback: Run checks early in CI
3. Clear messages: Explain why checks failed
4. Incremental improvement: Gradually increase thresholds
5. Bypass mechanism: For emergencies only
6. Local pre-commit: Catch issues before push
7. Team agreement: Align on standards
