Early Access

Python Package

First Steps

Baseline, prioritize findings, define quality gate.

Early Access: Until 2026-12-31

← Back Overview Requirements

1) Measure Baseline

Run manifestguard check --extended on current state.

2) Prioritize Findings

Do not fix everything at once:

• hard failures first
• recurring warning patterns second
• style/convenience topics last

3) Define Quality Gate

Set the point where a build must fail.

4) Anchor in Team Process

• mandatory PR checks
• make regressions visible
• version findings and outcomes
