+## Formatting
+
+CI enforces `forge fmt` with a pinned Foundry version (**v1.3.6**) so formatting is
+reproducible regardless of your local Foundry. Before committing:
+
+```sh
+make fmt         # format using the pinned version
+make fmt-check   # verify (identical to the CI check)
+```
+
+`make fmt` installs Foundry v1.3.6 side-by-side on first run — it does not have to be
+your default. The initial install switches your active Foundry to v1.3.6; run
+`foundryup -u stable` to switch back.
