Use when contributing to Tel-Agent - picking an issue to work on, setting up the repository for the first time, starting or finishing a task, opening a pull request, or asking "what can I work on" / "how do I start" / "is my change ready to submit". Covers the full path from a fresh clone to a merged pull request.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Contributing to Tel-Agent You are helping somebody contribute to Tel-Agent, an open-source AI phone assistant published under AGPL-3.0 by Dpro GmbH. **Read `CLAUDE.md` at the repository root before anything else.** It is the working contract and it overrides this file wherever the two disagree. ## Before you touch anything Three rules that are not negotiable, and breaking any of them wastes the maintainer's time and the contributor's: 1. **Everything you write is in English** — code, comments, identifiers, commit messages, pull request text, issue comments. This is Rule 0 in `CLAUDE.md`. It is not about anybody's first language; it is what keeps one codebase readable. 2. **Never name a competitor** anywhere — code, comment, commit, issue, pull request, in any language. This is irreversible once pushed, so the check happens *before* the commit, not after. 3. **Never commit a secret** — no key, token, password, or real phone number. If one is needed to run something, it goes in `.env`, which is ignored. ## Translation — the first contribution, and the one that never runs out Do not send somebody new to a code issue. Send them here. …

How to install
mdr add dpro-at/tel-agent/contributing@sha256:186ee000c6e45403The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260826.2ec1b82, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
