Code of Conduct

Group 9 commits to a respectful, honest, and inclusive working environment. These standards apply to every member, and to anyone who reviews or comments in this repository.

  • Treat every member as a peer. Disagree with ideas, not people.
  • Assume good intent and ask before concluding. Written text loses tone.
  • Give feedback in pull requests that is specific, kind, and actionable.
  • Credit work accurately. Never claim work you did not do; disclose help received, including AI assistance (ai-use-log.md).
  • Follow the university academic integrity policy and the course AI-use policy (TEAM_CHARTER.md section 11).
  • Respect the people behind the datasets: do not attempt to deanonymize author codes, do not contact repository owners about findings, and do not name repositories or accounts in outputs.
  • Treat suspected malicious content responsibly: never execute it, stop the analysis of that item, and raise it with the instructor.
  • Raise concerns early: first with the person, then with the Scrum Master of the sprint, then with the whole team, then with the instructor.

Violations are handled through the escalation path in TEAM_CHARTER.md section 10.
