Navigate logical layers of code changes, visualize relationships, and explore their blast radius. 📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe contribution guides now document commit-signing requirements, signing methods for people and automated committers, checks on pull request branches, and squash-merge requirements. ChangesSigned commit guidance
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~4 minutes Change: Other Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The guides promise squash-only merges while repository settings still expose other merge methods. Align the settings with the documented policy before contributors rely on it. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)
✅ Passed checks (4 passed)
Full details: Description checkExplanation The description explains the documentation change, its policy basis, signing requirements, merge method, and testing context. However, it omits the required template sections for Summary, Changes, RSR Quality Checklist, Testing, and Screenshots, including the required checklist items. Resolution Use the repository template headings. Add a Summary, a Changes list, completed Required and As Applicable checklist items, a Testing section with the checks performed, and a Screenshots section stating that screenshots are not applicable if needed.

Adds a Signed commits section to this repo's CONTRIBUTING, per owner ruling D218. The estate policy is
docs/SIGNING-POLICY.adocin hyperpolymath/standards.This repo's default branch is covered by the zero-bypass
Require-Signed-Commitsruleset, and rebase-merge is off. The section tells contributors what that requires:If the file already had its own signing section, that section is replaced in place instead of adding a second one. Lines elsewhere that told people to sign with GPG are changed to match the policy (SSH for people).
This is a docs-only change. The commit was created through
createCommitOnBranch, so GitHub signs it.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
