- 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)
