+
+## Contributing Workflow
+
+1. **Create a new branch**
+
+   ```bash
+   git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name
+   ```
+2. **Make deterministic changes only**
+
+   * Avoid timestamps, random UUIDs, or nondeterministic data.
+   * Ensure reproducible outputs before committing.
+3. **Add / update tests**
+
+   * Include demo or validation runs when applicable.
+   * Demos are preferred over unit tests for full-system verification.
+4. **Commit clearly**
+
+   ```bash
+   git commit -m "Add: reproducible checksum validation for Polyglot bridge"
+   ```
+5. **Submit a Pull Request**
+
+   * PRs must pass all CI checks before review.
+   * Use Discussions for early feedback or design questions.
+
+---
+
+## Code Style & Validation
+
+* **Language:** Python 3.9 – 3.12
+* **Linting:** `flake8`, `black` (default settings)
+* **Static Analysis:** CodeQL runs automatically on PRs
+* **Output format:** human-readable log + JSONL state (deterministic only)
+
+Run quick checks:
+
+```bash
+pytest -q
+python demos/demo_02_integration_loop.py
+```

+# Contributing Guidelines — PAXECT Core Complete
+
+Thank you for your interest in contributing to **PAXECT Core Complete**!  
+This repository represents the verified reference bundle for all core PAXECT modules —  
+**Core**, **AEAD Hybrid**, **Polyglot**, **SelfTune**, and **Link** — designed for deterministic, cross-platform reproducibility.
+
+---
+
+##  Overview
+
+All contributions must follow the same key principles that define PAXECT:
+
+- ✅ **Deterministic by design** — no randomness, no nondeterministic side-effects  
+- ✅ **Offline-first** — no external telemetry, APIs, or network dependencies  
+- ✅ **Cross-OS consistency** — must behave identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows  
+- ✅ **No AI / ML components** — SelfTune is purely algorithmic, not heuristic  
+- ✅ **Security hygiene** — no hard-coded secrets; all config via environment variables  
+
+> _In short: every contribution must keep PAXECT reproducible, portable, and auditable._
