Contributing to AIRE Standards

Thank you for your interest in contributing to the AI Reliability Engineering (AIRE) Standards. This document explains how to contribute and the terms that apply to contributions.

How to Contribute

Reporting Issues

  • Missing patterns: If you've encountered a reliability challenge not covered by AIRE, open an issue describing the problem and your solution.
  • Corrections: If you find errors or outdated information, open an issue or submit a pull request with the fix.
  • Debates: If you disagree with a standard or want to propose an alternative approach, open an issue for discussion.

Submitting Pull Requests

  1. Fork the repository and create a branch from main.
  2. Make your changes following the existing documentation style and structure.
  3. Test locally by building the docs with MkDocs (mkdocs serve) to verify formatting.
  4. Submit a pull request with a clear description of what you changed and why.

What Makes a Good Contribution

  • Practitioner-driven: Contributions should be based on real-world experience running AI systems in production.
  • Specific and actionable: Include concrete patterns, metrics, and implementation guidance.
  • Well-structured: Follow the existing format (Philosophy, Core Concepts, Metrics, Common Pitfalls).

Contribution License Agreement

By submitting a pull request, issue, or other contribution to this repository, you agree to the contribution terms in Section 5 of the AIRE Standards License.

In summary, by contributing you:

  • Grant ExosphereHost Inc. a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, modify, sublicense, and distribute your contribution.
  • Grant the right to relicense your contribution under different terms in the future.
  • Retain all copyright and intellectual property rights in your contribution (this is a license grant, not a copyright assignment).
  • Represent that you are the original author (or have sufficient rights) and that your contribution does not infringe third-party rights.

Please read Section 5 of the LICENSE for the full legal terms.

Code of Conduct

Be respectful, constructive, and professional. We are building an industry standard together, and productive discourse requires mutual respect.
