Adds a Signed commits section to this repo's CONTRIBUTING, per owner ruling D218. The estate policy is docs/SIGNING-POLICY.adoc in hyperpolymath/standards.

This repo's default branch is covered by the zero-bypass Require-Signed-Commits ruleset, and rebase-merge is off. The section tells contributors what that requires:

  • People and interactive agents sign with an SSH signing key.
  • Apps, bots and workflows write through the API, so GitHub signs their commits.
  • PRs are merged with squash.

If the file already had its own signing section, that section is replaced in place instead of adding a second one. Lines elsewhere that told people to sign with GPG are changed to match the policy (SSH for people).

This is a docs-only change. The commit was created through createCommitOnBranch, so GitHub signs it.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated the contribution guide with commit-signing requirements, setup guidance and instructions for submitting signed commits.
    • Clarified that squash merges should be used and unsigned commits must be recreated as signed commits.

Walkthrough

The contribution guide adds commit-signing requirements for people, interactive agents, apps, bots and workflows. It also describes squash merges, replacement of unsigned commits and the disabled rebase-merge option.

Changes

Commit Signing Guidance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Signing and merge requirements
.github/CONTRIBUTING.md
The guide specifies signing methods for people, interactive agents, apps, bots and workflows. It requires squash merges, explains how to replace unsigned commits and states that rebase-merge is disabled.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Other

Suggested reviewers: metadatastician

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f0c38

Where repository rules allow updating the PR branch, the guide directs contributors to open another PR instead, causing avoidable review and workflow churn. Clarify the recovery instructions before merging.

Architecture Summary

Architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to f0c38

The changed surface does not map to a changed system, dependency edge, entrypoint, or external dependency.

Changed systems: None identified.

No architecture-level concerns identified.

Review details

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in .github/CONTRIBUTING.md: Adds commit-signing requirements and instructions: people and interactive agents use a GitHub-registered SSH signing key and verified committer email; apps, bots and workflows use the specified API or action rather than pushing local commits. It also requires squash merges, explains how to replace unsigned PR-branch commits, and states that rebase-merge is disabled.
