Add essential documentation files to support open-source collaboration and project onboarding:

  • SECURITY.md: Security policy with vulnerability reporting guidelines, severity classification, and responsible disclosure practices
  • CONTRIBUTING.md: Detailed contribution guidelines including Go coding standards, testing requirements, commit message format, and PR process
  • CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md: Contributor Covenant 2.1 with blockchain-specific guidelines for responsible disclosure and network testing ethics
  • README.md: Comprehensive project overview with installation, build instructions, quick start guide, and links to official documentation

Key improvements:

  • Aligned with industry standards from major blockchain projects
  • Includes blockchain-specific security considerations
  • References actual Makefile targets (make goimports, make test)
  • Points to official documentation at docs.klever.org
  • Fixed community resource links (kleverscan.org, forum.klever.org)
  • Removed inaccurate technical details to prevent documentation drift

Maybe it’s worth adding to the README how to run the node using make or make runsctrace
