Thanks for helping make Archiv more useful. This is a small personal project, so focused changes with a clear reason and a test are easiest to review.
Venice archives, browser profiles and diagnostics can contain conversations, media, cookies, session material and recovery keys. Never attach real archive data to an issue or commit it as a fixture.
- Reproduce problems with the smallest synthetic record you can make.
- Replace names, prompts, paths, IDs and media with fictional equivalents.
- Check screenshots and files for metadata before sharing them.
- If you discover a vulnerability or credential, follow SECURITY.md instead of opening a public issue with details.
- Use Node.js 18 or newer.
- Keep the normal workflow local-first and read-only with respect to live Venice storage.
- Add or update a synthetic test for behaviour changes.
- Run
npm testbefore opening a pull request. - Explain the user problem and any archive-format or privacy implications in the pull request.
