Chapter: 02 - Open-source collaboration. Plain-English map: Add a code of conduct, security policy, issue templates, and a pull request template. These files tell people how to report bugs, propose changes, and disclose vulnerabilities without guessing. Why it matters: Open-source projects are not only code. They need a shared operating manual so first-time contributors know the rules of the room and maintainers get the information they need. Principle: Healthy collaboration is documented. A project should make the safe path the obvious path, especially for security reports. Precedent borrowed: GitHub community-health conventions and the security-reporting guidance requested in upstream PR willchen96#147. Upstream base: willchen96/mike@d39f580. Original local commit: 045bdb7.
