Contributors page: celebrate the Squad in every release #210

Closed

Description

@bradygaster

Summary

Every release should include an updated Contributors page that celebrates the Squad team's work. The CONTRIBUTORS.md already has a placeholder ('Coming soon: Hall of fame for all contributors.') — time to fill it in.

Requirements

  • Auto-update on every release: The contributor's page must be refreshed as part of the release process (build script, CI step, or manual checklist item)
  • Celebrate the team: Each Squad agent that contributed to a release gets credited — list their name, role, and what they did
  • Cumulative: The page grows over time, showing the full history of contributions across releases
  • Release-tagged sections: Each release gets its own section (e.g., '## v0.8.21') listing contributors and highlights
  • Format: Keep it readable and celebratory — this is a thank-you page, not a changelog

Current State

CONTRIBUTORS.md exists with Insider Program info and a placeholder:

Coming soon: Hall of fame for all contributors.

Acceptance Criteria

  • CONTRIBUTORS.md populated with actual contributor credits
  • Release process updated to include contributor page refresh
  • At least the current release's contributors are listed
  • Page format is celebratory and human-readable
