# Quick Start - Immediate Action Items
**Generated**: February 21, 2026
**Priority**: Execute these items first (Week 1-2)
## Phase 1: Critical Foundation (This Week)
### Day 1-2: CI/CD Testing Pipeline 🔴 CRITICAL
**Goal**: Automated quality gates on every PR
**Tasks**:
1. Create `.github/workflows/test.yml`
2. Add pytest with coverage
3. Add mypy type checking
4. Add ruff linting
5. Add black formatting check
6. Configure Codecov integration
**Command**:
```bash
# Test locally first
pytest tests/ -v --cov --cov-report=term-missing
mypy src/
ruff check src/ tests/
black --check src/ tests/
# If all pass, commit workflow
git add .github/workflows/test.yml
git commit -m "Add CI/CD testing pipeline"
```
**Expected Outcome**: All future PRs require passing tests
---
### Day 3-4: Pre-commit Hooks 🔴 CRITICAL
**Goal**: Catch issues before commit
**Tasks**:
1. Create `.pre-commit-config.yaml`
2. Install pre-commit
3. Run on all files
4. Commit hooks configuration
**Commands**:
```bash
# Install
pip install pre-commit
# Setup hooks
pre-commit install
# Run on all files
pre-commit run --all-files
# Commit
git add .pre-commit-config.yaml
git commit -m "Add pre-commit hooks for code quality"
```
**Expected Outcome**: Automatic formatting and linting on commit
---
### Day 5: Input Validation 🔴 CRITICAL
**Goal**: Prevent invalid inputs, improve security
**Tasks**:
1. Install pydantic and pydantic-settings
2. Create `src/wemo_mcp_server/models.py`
3. Add validation models for all MCP tools
4. Update tools to use models
5. Add tests for validation
**Commands**:
```bash
# Add dependencies
echo "pydantic>=2.0.0" >> pyproject.toml
echo "pydantic-settings>=2.0.0" >> pyproject.toml
pip install -e ".[dev]"
# Create models file (see IMPROVEMENT_PLAN.md section 1.5)
# Then update tools to use validation
```
**Expected Outcome**: All inputs validated, better error messages
---
## Phase 2: Testing Excellence (Next Week)
### Week 2: Expand Test Suite 🟠 HIGH
**Goal**: 85%+ test coverage
**Checklist**:
- [ ] Create `tests/test_scanner.py` (15 tests)
- [ ] Create `tests/test_tools.py` (30 tests)
- [ ] Create `tests/test_cache.py` (10 tests)
- [ ] Create `tests/test_models.py` (5 tests)
- [ ] Run coverage report: `pytest --cov --cov-report=html`
- [ ] Review `htmlcov/index.html` for gaps
- [ ] Fill coverage gaps
- [ ] Commit all tests
**Commands**:
```bash
# Create test files
touch tests/test_scanner.py tests/test_tools.py
touch tests/test_cache.py tests/test_models.py
# Write tests (see IMPROVEMENT_PLAN.md section 2.1)
# Check coverage
pytest tests/ --cov --cov-report=html
open htmlcov/index.html # macOS
```
**Expected Outcome**: 85%+ coverage, 60+ tests
