Decision: adopt a Code of Conduct and enforcement path #7

Description

@LaloLalo1999

Decision

Decide whether the Playbook should adopt a formal Code of Conduct for public contributors and designate a private enforcement channel.

Why this is separate

The governance documentation in PR #6 defines contribution, support, and security routes, but a Code of Conduct requires an explicit enforcement responsibility and a private contact path. Neither should be invented in a public repository.

Recommended next step

Adopt Contributor Covenant 2.1 if Agentic Engineering intends to invite ongoing community contributions, after naming:

  • the organization role or team responsible for enforcement;
  • a private reporting channel that is not a public issue;
  • the scope of spaces covered by the policy;
  • the response and escalation process the organization can actually operate.

If the repository remains primarily an organization-published documentation surface with occasional corrections, document that a formal Code of Conduct is intentionally deferred and revisit when community contribution volume justifies it.

Acceptance criteria

  • Confirm whether ongoing external community contribution is an explicit goal.
  • Name the enforcement owner and private reporting channel.
  • Choose the policy text and covered community spaces.
  • Add the policy and link it from CONTRIBUTING.md.
  • Confirm GitHub’s community profile detects the file.
