Quality Assurance & Testing

Oss Contributor Onboarding

Designs and verifies the path a stranger walks to their first merged contribution on an open-source project - the CONTRIBUTING file, the good-first-issue queue, a clone-to-passing-tests command that works cold, and the first-pull-request review and recognition loop, scored against a blocking-plus-weighted rubric. Use whenever someone says "nobody contributes to my project", "write a CONTRIBUTING.md", "our good first issues get no takers", "first-time contributors disappear", "contributor onboarding", "first pull request experience", or "how do we get more open-source contributors" - even if they only complain about a lonely repo. Not triage-system design - use samber/developer-relations-skills@oss-issue-triage. Not governance or CLA choice.
