guidelines. To lint the repository, you can run the following command from

Pull requests will automatically be linted through Github Actions. You can find
the exact invocation used in the CI in .github/workflows/main.yml
. We require
the lint job to pass before merging a PR.
We use python type annotations to improve code quality. To validate our type
annotations, we use pytype
. To run pytype
against all the files in the
repository, you can run the following command:
pytype -j auto --overriding-parameter-count-checks .
Pull requests will automatically be type-checked through Github Actions. You can find the exact invocation used in the CI in '.github/workflows/main.yml`. We require the type-checking jobs to succeed before merging a PR.
