docs: llms.txt, provider-request template, contribution ladder - #60
Merged
Conversation
…adder llms.txt was missing at the repo root; the model provider request template covers the Asker/PROVIDERS backend this repo's `run`/`judge` actually uses in place of the generic "adapter" concept other repos have. CONTRIBUTING.md gets the shared ladder section, the seeded good-first-issue search link, and a short note on the chock+DCO check pair, without touching its existing content.

What
Adds the contributor-plumbing pieces this repo was missing:
llms.txtat the repo root, aprovider_request.mdissue template for requesting a newcontext-report run/judgemodelbackend, and the shared "ladder" section plus the seeded good-first-issue search link in
CONTRIBUTING.md. No code, README, or workflow changes.llms.txt: modeled on agentseam's and chock's, listing the docs an assistant should read tounderstand this project (README, CONTRIBUTING, CONVENTIONS, AGENTS, SECURITY, GOVERNANCE,
CHANGELOG, the two spec READMEs,
docs/cli.md,docs/library.md, the measurement paper) —every path verified to exist.
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/provider_request.md: this repo's analogue of an "adapter" is a modelprovider behind
PROVIDERSinsrc/context_report/run/runner.py(theAskerprotocol abackend implements — see
openai_backend.py/cli_backend.py), not a per-agent hook adapter,so the template asks for exactly that: how a prompt is sent and answered, auth, token-usage
reporting, and any
ModelReffield it would need. Matches the.mdformat the other threetemplates already use (no
.ymlform schema in this repo).CONTRIBUTING.md: added## The ladder(shared text, with the framing that rung 1 — anevidence report — is literally this project's product, pointing at the exact
produce/verifycommands from the README's quickstart) between the existing "everycontribution counts" material and "## Development setup", plus the chock+DCO paragraph
immediately after it. Added the seeded good-first-issue search-query link in the existing
"Labels — where to start" section. Nothing else in the file was touched.
