VoiceForge is built for assistive communication, so contributors are expected to work with empathy, patience, and respect.
- Be respectful and constructive in issues, reviews, and discussions.
- Assume good intent while still being clear about problems.
- Respect privacy, accessibility needs, and consent boundaries.
- Keep feedback focused on the work, not the person.
- Harassment, insults, threats, or discriminatory language.
- Publishing private information, voice samples, API keys, or recordings without consent.
- Spam, low-effort repeated comments, or pressure for maintainers to review immediately.
- Encouraging misuse of voice cloning or impersonation.
Maintainers may edit, hide, or remove comments; close issues or PRs; temporarily limit participation; or ban contributors who violate this code.
Report concerns privately to the maintainer whenever public discussion would create risk.
