### Documentation
2727

2828
Any piece of code that might be challenging to understand is accompanied by comments. If you add new code or modify existing code in a way that affects its functionality or requires changes in its usage, you must document these changes.
29+
30+
### Safety and legal checklist
31+
32+
By contributing, you confirm that you have the right to submit your code,
33+
documentation, data, images, audio, and other materials under this repository's
34+
license.
35+
36+
Do not submit:
37+
38+
- API keys, passwords, tokens, credentials, private data, or regulated data.
39+
- Copyrighted images, audio, text, datasets, or code unless you have permission
40+
and include the required attribution/license.
41+
- Malware, credential-stealing code, phishing code, spam tools, unlawful
42+
scraping, unauthorized automation, or code intended to harm people or systems.
43+
- Projects that require users to violate third-party terms of service.
44+
45+
If a project needs secrets, include only placeholders or a `.env.example` file.
46+
If a project uses third-party APIs, scraping, bots, automation, datasets, or
47+
media assets, document the source, license/terms, and safe usage limits in that
48+
project's README.

## Reporting a Security Issue
6+
7+
If you find a security issue, please do not publish exploit details in a public

personal data, or regulated data in issues, pull requests, examples, screenshots,
19+

If a project needs credentials, use placeholders such as `.env.example` and
22+
document how users can create their own local secret files.
