Contributing to Synaptic

Thank you for contributing to Synaptic.

License for contributions

Unless you conspicuously state otherwise before submission, any contribution you intentionally submit for inclusion in Synaptic is provided under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3 or later (AGPL-3.0-or-later), without additional terms or conditions. This is an inbound-equals-outbound model: contributions use the same license as the rest of Synaptic.

By contributing, you represent that you have the legal right to submit the work. If your employer or another organization may own the work, obtain its authorization before submitting it. Do not submit copied code or assets unless their terms are compatible and you identify their source and license.

Developer Certificate of Origin

Every commit must include a Signed-off-by trailer certifying the Developer Certificate of Origin 1.1. Add it with:

git commit --signoff

The sign-off is a provenance certification, not a copyright assignment. A separate contributor agreement may be introduced in the future if the project needs broader relicensing rights.

Before opening a pull request

Run the checks relevant to your change. For Rust changes, at minimum:

cargo fmt --all -- --check
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
cargo test --workspace
cargo deny check licenses bans sources

Describe behavior and security-boundary changes in the pull request. Do not commit secrets, proprietary B2B source, customer data, or generated credentials.
