License and Contributing

License

Polyant is released under AGPL-3.0-or-later. See the LICENSE file at the repository root for the full text.

AGPL requires that any modified version offered as a network service must release the corresponding source code to its users. See Section 13 of the license .

Filing issues

Bugs, feature requests, and security reports go on the GitHub issue tracker. Before filing:

• Check the existing issues for duplicates.
• Provide reproduction steps. For pipeline issues, include the conversation id (visible on the conversation detail page).
• For security reports, prefer a private channel — see SECURITY.md.

Contributing

Before submitting a pull request:

1. Read CLAUDE.md and Architecture for the architectural ground truth.
2. Run npm run typecheck and npm run lint from the repo root; both must pass with zero errors.
3. Add or update tests for any functional change. The convention is co-located *.test.ts files.
4. Keep PRs focused — one feature or fix per PR.
5. See CONTRIBUTING.md , which mandates a Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) sign-off on every commit.

Welcome aboard.
