Contributing

Keep a change inside one family whenever possible. A family change must not add a dependency on a sibling family or a central model registry.

Before opening a pull request, run the ownership validator, core tests, the affected family tests, and the affected native target. Sign off every commit with git commit --signoff.

Open the pull request as a draft and self-review its exact current head before marking it ready. Codex users can run:

$review-trtmc-pr review this draft PR as a contributor self-review

A documented manual review or another tool is also accepted. When complete, select the single Contributor Self-Review checkbox in the pull-request template. For an earlier local pass, ask $review-trtmc-pr to review the current branch and working tree against upstream/main.

See the repository-level CONTRIBUTING.md for the GitHub and CI flow.
