+- **`cargo fmt` is now a prek hook** — `cargo fmt --all` runs in place over the workspace on any staged `.rs` change (grouped with the other in-place formatters), so unformatted Rust can't be committed locally. CI already enforced `cargo fmt --check` via `dagger call check`; this catches it at commit time instead.
