+Development and testing
+
+Code style and conventions
+
+- Python 3.11+ with typing hints where helpful.
+- Use `logging_utils.setup_logging` for consistent logs across scripts.
+
+Running tests
+
+- This repository doesn't currently include a formal test suite. Suggested quick checks:
+  - Run `python list_coins.py` to verify connectivity to Hyperliquid Info.
+  - Run `python -m pyflakes .` or `python -m pylint` if you have linters installed.
+
+Adding a new strategy
+
+1. Create a new script following the pattern in `strategy_template.py`.
+2. Add an entry to `_data/strategies.json` with `enabled: true` and relevant parameters.
+3. Ensure the strategy writes a status JSON file (`_data/strategy_status_<name>.json`) and uses `trade_log.log_trade` to record actions.
+
+Recommended improvements (low-risk)
+
+- Add a lightweight unit test suite (pytest) for core functions like timeframe parsing, SQL helpers, and signal calculation.
+- Add CI (GitHub Actions) to run flake/pylint and unit tests on PRs.
+- Move secrets handling to a `.env.example` and document environment variables in `WIKI/SETUP.md`.
