+# Contributing to funcnodes-core
+
+This repository contains the **core runtime** (nodes, IO, nodespace, library, config, serialization).
+
+## Development setup (Python)
+
+Prereqs:
+
+- Python **3.11+**
+- `uv` (https://github.com/astral-sh/uv)
+
+Recommended environment variables (keep caches/config local):
+
+- `UV_CACHE_DIR=.cache/uv`
+- `FUNCNODES_CONFIG_DIR=.funcnodes`
+
+Install dev dependencies:
+
+```bash
+cd funcnodes_core
+UV_CACHE_DIR=.cache/uv uv sync --group dev
+```
+
+Run tests:
+
+```bash
+cd funcnodes_core
+FUNCNODES_CONFIG_DIR=.funcnodes UV_CACHE_DIR=.cache/uv uv run pytest
+```
+
+## Code style & hooks
+
+Run pre-commit:
+
+```bash
+cd funcnodes_core
+UV_CACHE_DIR=.cache/uv uv run pre-commit install
+UV_CACHE_DIR=.cache/uv uv run pre-commit run -a
+```
+
+## TDD expectations
+
+- Write tests first; add edge cases as separate tests.
+- Avoid mocks unless simulating external resources.
+
+## Pull requests
+
+- Work on a feature branch (direct commits to `main`/`master`/`test` are blocked by pre-commit).
+- Keep changes scoped: core is widely used across FuncNodes packages.
