### 3. Set Up Branch Protection
**Using GitHub Web Interface:**
1. Go to `https://github.com/jayrajgoya/gcp-mcp/settings/branches`
2. Click "Add rule"
3. Branch name pattern: `main`
4. Configure the following settings:
**✅ Require a pull request before merging**
- ✅ Require approvals: 1
- ✅ Dismiss stale PR approvals when new commits are pushed
- ✅ Require review from code owners
**✅ Require status checks to pass before merging**
- ✅ Require branches to be up to date before merging
- Add required status checks:
- `test (ubuntu-latest, 3.10)`
- `test (ubuntu-latest, 3.11)`

**✅ Do not allow bypassing the above settings**
5. Click "Create"
**Using GitHub CLI:**
```bash
gh api repos/jayrajgoya/gcp-mcp/branches/main/protection \\
--method PUT \\
--field required_status_checks='{"strict":true,"contexts":["test (ubuntu-latest, 3.10)","test (ubuntu-latest, 3.11)","test (ubuntu-latest, 3.12)","security","build"]}' \\
