chore: add open-source governance files (GPLv3 + contributing docs)
Add standard open-source project files: - LICENSE.md — GNU GPL v3.0 or later (verbatim) - CONTRIBUTING.md — setup, workflow, and required AI-usage disclosure - CONTRIBUTORS.md — maintainers, contributors, AI-assistance policy - CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md — Contributor Covenant 2.1 - SECURITY.md — private vulnerability reporting - .gitea/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/* + PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md - README: License section (Copyright (C) 2026 Runic Gateway) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01XmHdsbnLzDMAVQkAoTQSBe

# Contributing to Runic Gateway — ServUO Plugin
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks for your interest in contributing! This repo is the **C# ServUO side** of
|
||||
the game bridge. The shard emits newline-delimited JSON over a loopback TCP
|
||||
socket to the Rust sidecar
|
||||
([RunicGateway/link](https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/link)).
|
||||
|
||||
By participating you agree to abide by our
|
||||
[Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Ways to contribute
|
||||
|
||||
- **Report a bug** or **request a feature** through the
|
||||
[issue tracker](https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/servuo-plugins/issues)
|
||||
(issue templates are provided).
|
||||
- **Improve the code or docs** by opening a pull request (see below).
|
||||
- **Never** report a security vulnerability in a public issue — see
|
||||
[SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Development setup
|
||||
|
||||
This plugin is deployed as **source** and compiled by ServUO at boot — there is
|
||||
no standalone build artifact and no CI build (it needs the ServUO reference
|
||||
assemblies to compile). See the [README](README.md) for the full model.
|
||||
|
||||
**Key rule:** anything under `overlay/` is authoritative and mirrors the ServUO
|
||||
server root. **Do not edit files in a deployed server tree directly** — edit here
|
||||
under `overlay/` (or `patches/` for changes to stock ServUO files) and deploy:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
# Show what would change, then write it into a ServUO install:
|
||||
.\deploy.ps1 -ServerPath C:\path\to\servuo -Verify
|
||||
.\deploy.ps1 -ServerPath C:\path\to\servuo
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `overlay/` — copied over an install (the only thing `deploy.ps1` deploys).
|
||||
- `patches/` — unified diffs against stock ServUO for files we must modify.
|
||||
- `tools/` — never deployed: test scaffolding and stub sidecars.
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
|
||||
`tools/stub_sidecar.ps1` is a loopback listener that logs every line the shard
|
||||
sends — run it, boot the shard, and watch events arrive:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
.\tools\stub_sidecar.ps1 -Port 7788 -Log .\sidecar.log
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`tools/stub_sidecar_request.ps1` additionally sends inbound requests to exercise
|
||||
the request/response handlers. For real end-to-end testing, run against the Rust
|
||||
sidecar rather than the throwaway PowerShell stubs.
|
||||
|
||||
### Protocol compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
The loopback JSON protocol is a **compatibility contract** shared with the
|
||||
sidecar. The canonical event/command catalog lives in the
|
||||
[docs repo](https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/docs/src/branch/main/link)
|
||||
(`PLAN.md` §5/§7 and `INTEGRATION.md`). If you add or change an event or command,
|
||||
keep the plugin, the sidecar, and the spec in sync.
|
||||
|
||||
## Branch & PR workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. Branch from `main` with a descriptive name
|
||||
(`feature/…`, `fix/…`, `docs/…`, `chore/…`).
|
||||
2. Keep changes focused; small PRs are easier to review.
|
||||
3. Push and open a pull request against `main`. Fill out the PR template,
|
||||
including the **AI-assisted contributions** disclosure.
|
||||
4. A maintainer will review; address feedback with follow-up commits.
|
||||
|
||||
### Commit messages
|
||||
|
||||
We use [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) —
|
||||
`type(scope): summary` (e.g. `feat(bridge): add vendor.sale event`).
|
||||
|
||||
## AI-assisted contributions (disclosure required)
|
||||
|
||||
This project is developed openly with AI assistance, and we ask the same
|
||||
transparency of everyone. **If you used an AI tool** (Claude, Copilot, ChatGPT,
|
||||
Cursor, etc.) to help produce a contribution, you must disclose it:
|
||||
|
||||
- Tick the AI-usage box in the pull-request template and name the tool(s).
|
||||
- Mark AI-authored commits with a trailer, e.g.
|
||||
`Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>` or `Assisted-By: <tool>`.
|
||||
- You remain responsible for every line you submit: review it, understand it,
|
||||
and make sure it is correct and that you have the right to contribute it.
|
||||
|
||||
Disclosed AI assistance is welcome. Undisclosed AI-generated contributions are
|
||||
not, and may be closed.

||||
