WalkthroughCONTRIBUTING.adoc now requires signed commits for commits reaching the default branch. It specifies signing methods and restricts pull requests to squash merging. ChangesSigned Commit Policy
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~4 minutes Change: Other Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The signing instructions remain inconsistent across contributor guides, so contributors may follow a method that does not satisfy the new SSH requirement. Align the guidance; the remaining issues are bounded documentation risks. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change documents stronger contribution controls without changing executable code or deployment configuration. No security weakening was established, but the stated repository enforcement was not independently verified, and another contributor guide retains different signing instructions.

Keep this heading within the contribution guide hierarchy.
== Signed commits places this heading at the same level as == Contributing to veridical-simulation-core, while the guide’s sections use ===. Change it to === Signed commits so it remains a subsection. Asciidoctor uses the number of = characters to set section levels. (docs.asciidoctor.org)

Align docs/contributing.adoc with the SSH signing policy.
docs/architecture.adoc and docs/usage.adoc link to docs/contributing.adoc, so contributors can still follow its GPG-key and GPG-signing instructions. Those instructions conflict with the SSH-key requirement in this change.
Suggested fix
-* GPG signing key configured (estate policy — all commits must be
- signed). See

Adds a Signed commits section to this repo's CONTRIBUTING, per owner ruling D218. The estate policy is
docs/SIGNING-POLICY.adocin hyperpolymath/standards.This repo's default branch is covered by the zero-bypass
Require-Signed-Commitsruleset, and rebase-merge is off. The section tells contributors what that requires:If the file already had its own signing section, that section is replaced in place instead of adding a second one. Lines elsewhere that told people to sign with GPG are changed to match the policy (SSH for people).
This is a docs-only change. The commit was created through
createCommitOnBranch, so GitHub signs it.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
