+## Static Type Checks
+
+We use [Pyright](https://github.com/microsoft/pyright) to perform static type checks; which all commits should pass. The exception list within `pyproject.toml` is only to be used for legacy code or libraries with no available typing stubs. We hope that all new cogs can be made to pass - if you're having trouble, ping us on discord and we'll give you a hand. To run Pyright, run from the root of the repo:

+```bash
+poetry run pyright uqcsbot
