-### Issue #28: LOW-MEDIUM - Missing Pre-Commit Hooks
-
-**Where found**: 
-- No `.pre-commit-config.yaml`
-- Docs mention husky but no `.husky/` directory
-
-**Why this is needed**: 
-Without pre-commit hooks, developers commit code that fails linting/tests, slowing down CI.
-
-**Goal**: 
-Enforce code quality checks before commit.
-
-**What to do**:
-1. Create `.pre-commit-config.yaml`:
-   ```yaml
-   repos:
-     - repo: https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks
-       hooks:
-         - id: check-yaml
-         - id: end-of-file-fixer
-     - repo: https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff-pre-commit
-       hooks:
-         - id: ruff
-         - id: ruff-format
-   ```
-2. Setup husky for frontend
-3. Document in CONTRIBUTING.md
-
-**Docs changes needed**:
-- Create CONTRIBUTING.md with setup instructions
-
-**Doc references**:
-- DATABASE_API_DEPLOYMENT_ISSUES.md - Issue "12.1 Missing Pre-Commit Hooks"
