# Contributing
Thanks for your interest. This crate ships under the nomograph estate and
shares a common Rust contribution flow with `claim`, `workflow`, `synthesist`,
and `lattice`.
## Local checks
```sh
cargo test # run the test suite
cargo fmt # format the tree
cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings # lint (warnings are errors)
```
CI runs the same four stages (check, fmt, clippy, test) on every push.
## Licensing
All contributions are accepted under the [MIT License](LICENSE). By submitting
a change you agree to license it under those terms.
## Architecture notes
Workflow is the shared state-machine + Store adapter layer over the claim
substrate. Before touching the phase machine or legacy v1 detection, read
the architecture docs in the claim crate:
- `claim/SYNC.md` — sync protocol, heads, and the append/compact boundary
- `claim/IDENTITY.md` — asserter attribution and E2EE
