Summary

Continues the open-source prep started in #59 (MIT license) and #60 (de-hardcode owner references).

  • CONTRIBUTING.md — points contributors at CLAUDE.md as the canonical rules doc, explains when to open an issue first vs. just PR a fix, restates this repo's specific conventions (branch prefixes, doc-sync requirement between README.md/create-dev-loop.md, research-grounding requirement, and how to validate a change without an automated test suite).
  • CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md — standard Contributor Covenant v2.1, with the enforcement contact pointed at the maintainer's GitHub profile (consistent with how LICENSE.md already routes inquiries there rather than a raw email).
  • Linked both from a new "Contributing" section in README.md.

Test plan

  • Both new files render as valid Markdown (checked by eye)
  • README links resolve to the new files in the same PR
  • N/A — no automated test suite for this project (docs-only change)

drafted by Claude on behalf of Daniel Stephenson

Standard OSS scaffolding ahead of making this repo public: a
contributor guide covering this repo's specific conventions (branch
prefixes, doc-sync rules, research-grounding requirement, validation
without an automated test suite) and a Contributor Covenant v2.1 code
of conduct.
