docs: contributor recognition (CONTRIBUTORS.md + README wall + CLAUDE.md convention)#352
Merged
Conversation
…E.md convention We don't merge external PRs, but the project stays open and the community's ideas / reports / designs shape it — recognizing those people is deliberate operations, not a courtesy. Set up a lightweight, hand-maintained recognition surface (no script; the volume doesn't justify one): - CONTRIBUTORS.md — a credits ledger + a short "how recognition works" guide. Each entry links to the actual change the person influenced (a record, not just a name); standouts pinned on top. Avatars come free from github.com/<handle>.png. - README.md — a Contributors section (avatar wall + pointer to the ledger). - CLAUDE.md — a "Recognizing contributors — credit, don't merge" subsection next to the external-PR-refusal policy: where it lives, the -ING/-ORS filename split, how to add someone, and the IP-clean rule — never Co-Authored-By for a human (that asserts copyright and breaks single ownership); use Suggested-by/Reported-by trailers for a git-level record. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Stand up a lightweight, hand-maintained contributor-recognition surface. We don't merge external PRs, but the community's ideas / reports / designs shape the project, and recognizing those people is deliberate operations (part of the growth flywheel).
CONTRIBUTORS.md— credits ledger + a short "how recognition works" guide. Each entry links to the actual change the person influenced (a record, not just a name); standouts pinned on top. Avatars are free fromgithub.com/<handle>.png(no token).

Boundary touch
None — documentation + a README section. No trading / auth / broker / migration changes.
