## 🔧 How to Use

### For Developers

```bash
# 1. Write a shell script
nano scripts/my_monitor.sh

# 2. Stage and commit
git add scripts/my_monitor.sh
git commit -m "Add monitoring script"

# 3. Pre-commit runs automatically
# ✅ If compliant: commit succeeds
# ❌ If violations: see error + suggestions, then fix & re-commit

# 4. Reference: .copilot/instructions/shell.instructions.md
# When writing, Copilot shows R1-R8 rules with examples
```

### For Code Reviewers

1. Check that `no-polling-antipatterns: PASSED` in pre-commit output
2. Reference `SHELL_SCRIPT_QUALITY_GUIDELINES.md` for patterns
3. Use `QUICK_REFERENCE_SHELL_QUALITY.md` checklist
4. Point to specific R-rule in `.copilot/instructions/shell.instructions.md`

### For System Monitoring

```bash
cd /home/kuhy/testsAndMisc

# See resource report
./run.sh

# Find all anti-patterns in repo
./run.sh --diagnose

# Profile system for 30 seconds
./run.sh --profile 30

# Test hook manually
scripts/check_polling_antipatterns.sh path/to/script.sh
```

## ✨ What This Achieves

### Immediate (Automatic)

- ✅ Every commit runs pre-commit checks
- ✅ Fork-storm anti-patterns are blocked
- ✅ Developer gets specific error + fix suggestions
- ✅ System prevents regression

### Short-term (Days)

- ✅ Developers read error messages, learn patterns
- ✅ Code reviewers reference guidelines
- ✅ New scripts follow best practices

### Long-term (Weeks/Months)

- ✅ Repository builds culture of efficient scripts
- ✅ System resource usage stays optimal
- ✅ No new fork-storms appear

## 📊 System Impact

### Optimizations Already Active

| Component          | Result                    | Daily Savings           |
| ------------------ | ------------------------- | ----------------------- |
| network_monitor.sh | Zero fork timestamp reads | ~10ms/read              |
| Battery polling    | Interval 1s → 5s          | ~80% fewer forks        |
