Code of conduct

Our commitment

We are committed to building a community that is welcoming, inclusive and intentionally safe for everyone regardless of experience level, identity, background, or viewpoints. We value collaboration, clarity, and respect.

Diversity, equity & inclusion

We are committed to an inclusive, intentionally safe community. We respect and encourage participation from people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes (but is not limited to):

LGBTQIA+ people
People of all races, ethnicities, nationalities, and cultures
People with disabilities and neurodivergent people

Harassment, discrimination and hate have zero place in this OSIRIS community. We enforce this Code of Conduct and prioritize community safety.

Scope

This Code of Conduct applies in all project spaces (issues, pull requests, discussions, chat, events) and also in public spaces when someone represents the project.

Expected behavior

Please:

Be respectful and considerate in words and actions
Assume good intent and seek clarification before escalating
Give constructive feedback; focus on the work, not the person
Be mindful of tone—text is easy to misread specially when conversation involve different races, ethnicities, nationalities, and cultures
Respect differing viewpoints and lived experiences
Follow project guidelines (including CONTRIBUTING)

Unacceptable behavior

Examples include:

Harassment, discrimination, or hateful language
Personal attacks, insults, or deliberate intimidation
Sexualized language or unwelcome sexual attention
Doxxing or sharing private information without consent
Threats of violence or encouragement of self-harm
Persistent disruption, trolling, or bad-faith participation
Spamming the project with low-effort issues/PRs (including mass AI-generated noise)
Unsolicited advertising or self-promotion, including company marketing, referral links, SEO content, press releases, or “buy my product” messages unrelated to the project
Link phishing/spam (repeatedly posting promotional sites, Discord/Telegram servers, newsletters, or other services and applications)
Recruiting or sales outreach to community members (e.g. DMs or “let’s hop on a call” pitches) without prior consent
Astroturfing or coordinated promotion (e.g. fake endorsements, sockpuppets, review brigading)

Enforcement

Project maintainers may take any action they deem appropriate to protect the community and the project, including:

Private warning
Request for changes/remediation
Temporary restrictions (limits on participation or a time-limited ban)
Closing, hiding, or reverting contributions
Permanent ban

When possible, enforcement aims to be:

Proportionate to impact
Consistent
Focused on restoring a healthy, productive environment

Enforcement guidelines (impact-based)

Maintainers may use an escalating response depending on severity:

Correction — Clarify expectations; request a change in behavior.
Warning — A formal warning; continued behavior may lead to restrictions.
Temporary restrictions — Time-limited ban or limits on participation.
Permanent action — Removal from the community/project spaces.

Reporting

If you experience or witness unacceptable behavior, please report it privately to the maintainers.

Preferred: open a private report to maintainers (e.g. via GitHub)
Optional: email the maintainers at [email protected]

Reports are handled as confidentially as possible, and we will take action when needed.
