.pre-commit-config.yaml:43

• The mypy hook now pins numpy/pydantic to versions that likely require Python 3.12+. Since pre-commit’s python language version is set to the system “python3”, developers with an older default python3 may see hook environment creation failures. Consider pinning the pre-commit python language version to 3.12 (or documenting the requirement) so the hooks are reproducible.
