+Linting standards are defined within ./.clang-format. All changes within pull requests are expected to now follow these standards. To ensure this, it is advised setup IDEs with format on save features. Alternatively, formatting can be run on all cpp and header files by running the following bash command:

+- **Versions Tested:** Builds against the oldest (23.08) and newest (25.11) supported USD versions regularly.
 - **Weekly Builds:** The workflow builds against all supported USD versions to confirm ongoing compatibility.
 - **Post-Build Testing:** Following the build, each plugin undergoes sanity testing, including loading a cube to check basic functionality.
 - **Supported Plugins:** Currently supports FBXm GLTF, OBJ, PLY, and STL. Note: SBSAR plugin is not supported due to SDK constraints.
