# Contributing to Serena
Serena is a governed refactor program for AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui. This guide helps you run verification locally and understand CI behavior.
---
## Quickstart
1. Install dependencies: `pip install -r requirements-test.txt` and runtime deps per `requirements_versions.txt`
2. Create stub repositories: `python scripts/dev/create_stub_repos.py`
3. Run tests: see [Local verification](#local-verification) below
---
## Local verification
To verify the project builds and tests pass without a real model:
```bash
python launch.py --skip-prepare-environment --skip-torch-cuda-test --exit
pytest test
```
For full CI parity (including server startup and API tests), start the test server in one terminal, then run pytest in another. See `.github/workflows/run_tests.yaml` for the exact commands CI uses.
---
## CI parity
CI uses deterministic stub repositories and fake inference to avoid external clones and real model loading. To reproduce CI locally:
1. Run `python scripts/dev/create_stub_repos.py` before any launch or test
2. Use `--skip-prepare-environment` when launching
3. CI sets `CI=true` (GitHub Actions default); txt2img/img2img return a deterministic 1×1 PNG in CI instead of invoking the model
---
## Stub repositories
CI uses stub repositories to satisfy import paths without cloning large external repos (e.g. ldm, sgm). See `scripts/dev/create_stub_repos.py` for implementation. The script creates minimal placeholder modules so the application can start and API contract tests can run.
---
## Development workflow
1. Create a branch from `main`
2. Make changes; run `ruff .` and `pytest test` locally
3. Open a PR; CI runs linter, tests, and coverage
4. Do not push directly to `main`; merge via PR after CI passes
For milestone-specific workflow, see `docs/serena.md` and `docs/milestones/`.
