+
+## Project Overview
+
+- `kvpress` is a Python library for KV cache compression using 🤗 transformers. Read `README.md` for full project context.
+- Philosophy: keep one place to compare many KV cache compression methods, make evaluation easy, and favor readability over raw speed.
+- Core package code lives in `kvpress/`.
+- Compression methods are implemented as "presses" in `kvpress/presses/`.
+- Evaluation tooling and benchmark datasets live in `evaluation/`.
+- Tests live in `tests/`.
+
+## Environment Setup
+
+- Package manager: `uv`. Install: `uv sync`. Activate: `source .venv/bin/activate`.
+
+## Key Entry Points
+
+- `KVPressTextGenerationPipeline` in `kvpress/pipeline.py` is the primary user-facing API for applying a press during generation.
+- `kvpress/__init__.py`: lists all available presses.
+- All presses are `@dataclass` classes inheriting from `BasePress` (`kvpress/presses/base_press.py`), and many presses inherit from `ScorerPress` (`kvpress/presses/scorer_press.py`) for score-based pruning.
+- Read `BasePress` and `ScorerPress` implementations to understand the press architecture and hook mechanism.
+
+## Style
+
+- `make format` (isort + black), `make style` (flake8, mypy, SPDX header check).
+- All Python files **must** have SPDX headers:
+```python
+# SPDX-FileCopyrightText: Copyright (c) 1993-2026 NVIDIA CORPORATION & AFFILIATES. All rights reserved.
+# SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0
+```
+
+## Adding or Modifying a Press
+
+1. Create `kvpress/presses/my_press.py` as a `@dataclass` inheriting from `BasePress` (or `ScorerPress` if the press is score-based).
+2. Export it in `kvpress/__init__.py` (add both the import and the `__all__` entry).
+3. Add tests in `tests/default_presses.py` (shared parametrized matrix) and/or `tests/presses/` (press-specific tests). Check existing examples to decide.
+4. If evaluation support is needed, add a pre-configured instance to `PRESS_REGISTRY` in `evaluation/evaluate_registry.py`.
+5. Update `README.md` with press description, link to paper, and source link.
+6. Run `make style` and test only new/modified tests.
+
+## Commits
+
+- Sign commits with DCO (`git commit -s`) as required by `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

 ## Usage
 
 KVPress provides a set of "presses" that compress the KV cache during the prefilling-phase. Each press is associated with a `compression_ratio` attribute that measures the compression of the cache. The easiest way to use a press is through our custom `KVPressTextGenerationPipeline`. It is automatically registered as a transformers pipeline with the name "kv-press-text-generation" when kvpress is imported and handles chat templates and tokenization for you:
