+# Repository Guidelines
+
+## Project Structure & Module Organization
+This is a Cargo workspace with three primary crates plus supporting data/scripts.
+- `core/`: `strapdown-core` library (INS algorithms, filters, simulation utilities).
+- `sim/`: `strapdown-sim` CLI for open/closed-loop runs and GNSS degradation.
+- `geonav/`: experimental geophysical navigation module.
+- `data/`: sample datasets and scenarios (e.g., `data/input/*.csv`).
+- `docs/`, `papers/`, `spec.md`: design notes and research docs.
+- `scripts/`, `examples/`: helper workflows and usage examples.
+
+## Build, Test, and Development Commands
+Use Pixi when available; Cargo works directly too.
+- `pixi run build` / `cargo build --workspace --release`: build all crates.
+- `cargo test --workspace`: run all tests.
+- `cargo test --package strapdown-core`: test a single crate.
+- `pixi run lint`: run Rust clippy and Python ruff.
+- `pixi run fmt`: run rustfmt and Python formatting.
+- `pixi run coverage` / `cargo tarpaulin --workspace --timeout 600`: coverage.
+- Example run: `./target/release/strapdown-sim -i data/input/input.csv -o output.csv open-loop`.
+
+## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
+- Rust formatting via rustfmt (4-space indentation); keep functions focused and small.
+- Naming: `snake_case` for functions/vars, `CamelCase` for types, `SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE` for constants.
+- Prefer descriptive names over symbols; add Rust doc comments (`///`) and cite Groves equations when relevant.
+- Use `assert_approx_eq` for floating-point comparisons in tests.
+
+## Testing Guidelines
+- Unit tests live alongside modules; integration tests live in `core/tests/integration_tests.rs`.
+- Tests should be deterministic; seed RNGs when applicable.
+- Name test functions in `snake_case` and keep fixtures minimal.
+
+## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
+- Commit subjects are short, imperative, and plain (e.g., "Update RBPF documentation..."). Use `Fixes #123` when closing issues.
+- PRs should include a concise description, linked issue(s), and any new flags/configs or dataset notes. Add tests when behavior changes.
+
+## Environment & Configuration
+- Pixi manages Python/Rust deps (`pixi.toml`); Rust >=1.91 and Python >=3.12 are expected. HDF5 is required for `geonav`.
+- Scenarios use YAML/JSON configs; CSV inputs follow Sensor Logger-style IMU/GNSS columns.
