# Contributing
## Workflow
1. Create a branch for your work: `git checkout -b fix/issue-N-name` or `git checkout -b feat/issue-N-feature-name`
2. Make changes and commit with clear messages
3. Open a Pull Request for review
4. Do not merge directly to `main` or `develop` for reviewable changes
5. After approval, squash and merge
## Guidelines
- Use clear, descriptive commit messages
- Keep PRs focused and reasonably sized
- Document any non-obvious decisions
- Test changes before submitting
- See [VERSIONING.md](VERSIONING.md) for backport compatibility rules
## Pre-commit Hooks
This repository uses [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) for linting and commit message enforcement.
### Setup
```bash
pip install pre-commit
pre-commit install
```
### Hooks
- **shellcheck** — Lints bash scripts
- **ruff** — Lints and formats Python
- **commitizen** — Enforces [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) format
### Commit Message Format
Use Conventional Commits format:
```
type(scope): message
# Examples
fix(session): handle missing session gracefully
feat(pm): add queue daemon for task delegation
docs: update contributing guide
```
Types: `fix`, `feat`, `docs`, `refactor`, `chore`, `test`
## Branches
### Primary Branches
- `main` — stable 0.1.x releases, production-ready code
- `develop` — experimental 0.2.x work, next major version
### Feature Branches
- `fix/*` — bug fixes
- `feat/*` — new features
- `docs/*` — documentation updates
- `refactor/*` — code refactoring (no behavior change)
## Branch Model
```
main (0.1.x stable)
└── v0.1.0, v0.1.1, v0.1.2, ...
develop (0.2.x experimental)
└── (next major version work)
```
### Which Branch to Target?
| Change Type | Target Branch | Backport? |
|-------------|---------------|-----------|
| Bug fix | `main` | N/A |
| Documentation | `main` | N/A |
| New feature (backport-compatible) | `main` | Can cherry-pick to `develop` |
| Experimental feature | `develop` | No |
| Breaking change | `develop` | No |
## Backport Compatibility
Before merging, consider if your change is backport-compatible:
- **YES**: Bug fixes, docs, adding new optional inputs
- **NO**: Changing behavior, changing defaults, removing features
See [VERSIONING.md](VERSIONING.md) for full policy.
## Release Process
1. Bug fixes and docs → directly to `main`
2. New features → `develop` or feature branches → `develop`
3. When `develop` is stable enough → merge to `main` for release
