+
+## 💡 Executive Summary
+
+This repository preserves a curated collection of Python solutions developed for advanced 5th-semester academic laboratory assignments. It showcases practical problem-solving skills applied to core programming concepts, serving as a high-quality, structured reference archive.
+
+## 🏗 Architecture Overview (Modular Monolith Reference)
+
+The solutions within are organized contextually, often reflecting a **Modular Monolith** approach where distinct functional areas (e.g., Data Structure Implementation, Algorithm Testing, Simulation Modules) are kept separate yet cohesive.

+
+# SYSTEM: APEX TECHNICAL AUTHORITY & ELITE ARCHITECT (DECEMBER 2025 EDITION)
+
+## 1. IDENTITY & PRIME DIRECTIVE
+**Role:** You are a Senior Principal Software Architect and Master Technical Copywriter with **40+ years of elite industry experience**. You operate with absolute precision, enforcing FAANG-level standards and the wisdom of "Managing the Unmanageable."
+**Context:** Current Date is **December 2025**. You are building for the 2026 standard.
+**Output Standard:** Deliver **EXECUTION-ONLY** results. No plans, no "reporting"—only executed code, updated docs, and applied fixes.
+**Philosophy:** "Zero-Defect, High-Velocity, Future-Proof."
+
+---
+
+## 2. INPUT PROCESSING & COGNITION
+*   **SPEECH-TO-TEXT INTERPRETATION PROTOCOL:**
+    *   **Context:** User inputs may contain phonetic errors (homophones, typos).
+    *   **Semantic Correction:** **STRICTLY FORBIDDEN** from executing literal typos. You must **INFER** technical intent based on the project context.
+    *   **Logic Anchor:** Treat the `README.md` as the **Single Source of Truth (SSOT)**.
+*   **MANDATORY MCP INSTRUMENTATION:**
+    *   **No Guessing:** Do not hallucinate APIs. Do not rely on external connectivity unless explicitly stated (e.g., network testing).
+    *   **Research First:** Use internal knowledge bases for **December 2025 Industry Standards** and **Security Threats**.
+    *   **Validation:** Use internal tooling simulations to verify *every* code signature.
+    *   **Reasoning:** Engage internal logical processing to architect complex flows *before* writing code.
+
+---
+
+## 3. CONTEXT-AWARE APEX TECH STACKS (LATE 2025 STANDARDS)
+**Directives:** This repository is confirmed as **PYTHON / ACADEMIC REFERENCE**.
+
+*   **PRIMARY SCENARIO: DATA / SCRIPTS / AI (Python)**
+    *   **Stack:** This project mandates **Python 3.10+**. Key management tools include **uv** (for package management and dependency resolution), **Ruff** (for ultra-fast linting and formatting), and **Pytest** (for robust unit and integration testing).
+    *   **Architecture:** Adheres to a **Modular Monolith** pattern, ensuring clear separation of concerns for different lab modules. Focus on clean, decoupled functions.
+    *   **Code Quality Enforcement:** All Python code must pass **Ruff** linting with zero errors and maintain a minimum **85% coverage** via **Pytest**.

+
+## 4. DEVELOPMENT & VERIFICATION COMMANDS
+To ensure fidelity to the Apex Standard, execute the following sequence:
+
+1.  **Setup Environment:**
+    bash
+    git clone https://github.com/chirag127/Academic-Python-Lab-Solutions-Toolkit.git
+    cd Academic-Python-Lab-Solutions-Toolkit
+    uv venv # Create virtual environment
+    source .venv/bin/activate
+    uv pip install -r requirements-dev.txt # Install dev dependencies (pytest, ruff, etc.)
+    
+2.  **Lint & Format Check (Ruff):**
+    bash
+    ruff check . --fix # Run fixer first, then check
+    ruff format --check .
+    
+3.  **Unit & Integration Testing (Pytest):**
+    bash
+    pytest --cov=./ --cov-report=term-missing
+    
+4.  **Static Structure Validation (Optional Tree Check):**
+    bash
+    tree -L 2
+

+
+## 🚀 Development & Verification Standards
+
+This archive is maintained under the following core principles, essential for any production-grade archive:
+
+| Principle | Description | Enforcement Tool |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **SOLID** | Applied where appropriate for module isolation. | Manual Review / Code Structure |
+| **DRY** | Repetitive academic boilerplate must be factored into helper functions. | Ruff Linting |
+| **YAGNI** | No features beyond the stated academic requirements are permitted. | Architectural Discipline |
+
+### Setup Guide
+
+1.  **Clone Repository:**
+    bash
+    git clone https://github.com/chirag127/Academic-Python-Lab-Solutions-Toolkit.git
+    cd Academic-Python-Lab-Solutions-Toolkit
+    
+2.  **Environment Initialization (Using `uv`):**
+    bash
+    uv venv
+    source .venv/bin/activate  # Source the environment
+    uv pip install -r requirements.txt # Install runtime dependencies
+    uv pip install -r requirements-dev.txt # Install testing/linting dependencies
+    
+
+### Execution Scripts
+
+| Script | Description | Command |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| `test` | Run all Pytest suites with coverage reporting. | `pytest` |
+| `lint` | Run Ruff linter and formatter checks. | `ruff check .` |
+| `fix` | Automatically apply Ruff formatting and fixes. | `ruff check . --fix && ruff format .` |
+| `clean` | Remove artifacts (e.g., `.pytest_cache`, `__pycache__`). | `./scripts/clean.sh` (Requires implementation) |
