Implement standard GitHub community health files using repository references #65

Open
@ryancheley

Description

Background

Currently, we need a way to reference standard community files (like CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md and SECURITY.md) without duplicating them across repositories while ensuring they remain prominently visible on the repository landing page.

Problem

  • Maintaining multiple copies of community files across repositories creates maintenance overhead
  • Changes to these documents require updates in multiple places
  • We want to keep the prominent visibility GitHub provides for these files on repository landing pages

Proposed Solution

Still being investigated

Files to Include

  • CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
  • SECURITY.md
  • Any other standard community health files we want to centralize

Acceptance Criteria

  • Community files are stored in a central location
  • Files are properly linked/referenced/updated in dependent repositories
  • Files appear prominently on repository landing pages
