OpenUsage is maintained as a practical, technical project for people building and using AI coding tools. Participation should stay respectful, focused, and useful.
- Be direct and constructive when discussing code, design, issues, and tradeoffs.
- Assume good intent, but make room for maintainers to ask for clearer evidence, smaller scope, or stronger tests.
- Keep issue and pull request threads on topic.
- Respect differing experience levels, environments, accessibility needs, and constraints.
- Credit ideas, reports, and contributions accurately.
- Harassment, threats, insults, or personal attacks.
- Sexualized language or imagery in project spaces.
- Deliberate disruption of issues, pull requests, discussions, or release workflows.
- Publishing private information without permission, including credentials, private logs, email addresses, or telemetry data.
- Repeatedly ignoring maintainer requests about scope, tone, or safety.
This code applies in OpenUsage project spaces, including GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, reviews, project documentation, and community conversations where someone is representing the project.
Report conduct concerns to the maintainers. For private or sensitive reports, email security@baraniewski.com and include
relevant links, screenshots, or context.
Maintainers may remove comments, close issues, request changes, block participants, or take other reasonable action to keep the project usable and safe. Enforcement decisions are based on impact, severity, and repeated patterns of behavior.
This policy is inspired by the Contributor Covenant and adapted for the OpenUsage project.
