  • Any credentials or secrets handling

Best Practices for Contributors

  • Never commit secrets, tokens, or passwords — use .env.example templates
  • Pin GitHub Actions to full SHA hashes, not mutable tags
  • Use StrictHostKeyChecking accept-new instead of disabling host key checking
  • Avoid chmod 666 on sensitive sockets — use proper group membership
  • Do not flush iptables rules — use targeted allow rules instead
