# Contributing to DIREKT

DIREKT is publicly visible for collaboration and testing but is not operating as an open feature-submission project during the initial Android build.

## Current contribution model

- Do not open implementation pull requests unless the owner explicitly requests one.
- Use issues for research findings, defects and questions.
- Authorized implementation agents work sequentially on `build/android-v1`.
- Stable phase checkpoints are promoted to `main`.
- All contributions are subject to `AGENTS.md`, the workstream lock and the repository rights notice.

## Useful external contributions

Welcome forms of input include:

- Zambia market and service-provider research;
- accessibility findings;
- corrections to public documentation;
- security reports through the process in `SECURITY.md`;
- reproducible defects in public synthetic prototypes;
- feedback on trust language and misunderstanding.

Do not submit real identity documents, phone numbers, addresses, coordinates, certificates or customer/provider cases in public issues.

## Issue quality

Include:

- environment/version;
- exact steps;
- expected and actual result;
- screenshots with synthetic/redacted data;
- accessibility impact;
- security/privacy impact;
- reproduction frequency.

## Code style and tests

Once implementation begins, each workspace will include executable lint, format and test commands. No contribution is accepted merely because it compiles.
