+## Procedures
+Our CI system will automatically check your PR to ensure that it fits [formatting guidelines](https://github.com/Kenix3/libultraship/blob/main/.clang-format), [linter guidelines](https://github.com/Kenix3/libultraship/blob/main/.clang-tidy), and that the code builds. The submitter of a PR is required to ensure their PR passes all CI checks. The submitter of the PR is encouraged to address all PR review comments in a timely manner to ensure a timely merge of the PR.
+### Troubleshooting CI Errors
+#### tidy-format-validation
+If the tidy-format-validation check fails, then you need to run clang-format. Below is a command that can be used on Linux. Most modern IDEs have a clang-format plugin that can be used. The [.clang-format file can be found here](https://github.com/Kenix3/libultraship/blob/main/.clang-format)
+##### Running clang-format
+```
+find src include -name "*.cpp" -o -name "*.h" | sed 's| |\\ |g' | xargs clang-format-12 -i
+```

 LUS uses an asset loading system where data is stored separately from the executable in an archive file ending in `.otr`, which is an [`.mpq`](http://www.zezula.net/en/mpq/main.html) compatible file. This separation the data from the executable follows modern design practices and that it is more mod friendly. All one needs to do is supply a patch `.otr` and the system will automatically replace the data.
