# Code of Conduct mq-dir uses the Contributor Covenant 2.1 as its conduct baseline. The project is small and maintainer-led, so the practical rule is simple: keep discussion technical, specific, and respectful. ## Expected behavior - Assume good intent, but focus reviews on observable code, docs, behavior, and tradeoffs. - Give actionable feedback. Explain the risk or user impact when asking for a change. - Respect maintainership decisions about scope. mq-dir is personal-use-first software and intentionally avoids broad platform or feature sprawl. - Use inclusive language and avoid personal attacks, harassment, insults, trolling, or sexualized content. ## Unacceptable behavior - Harassment, threats, stalking, doxxing, or sustained unwanted attention. - Discriminatory language or conduct based on identity, background, or experience level. - Public disclosure of private security reports before coordinated disclosure. - Repeatedly relitigating rejected scope after a maintainer has closed the decision. ## Enforcement Maintainers may edit or delete comments, close issues or pull requests, block accounts, or ban contributors when behavior undermines a productive project environment. For private conduct reports, email the maintainer listed in `SECURITY.md`. Include links, screenshots, or logs where possible. Reports are handled confidentially and with proportionate action.
