+## Code Ownership
+
+This repository uses a [CODEOWNERS](.github/CODEOWNERS) file to automatically request reviews
+from the appropriate maintainers when pull requests are opened. The ownership is organized as follows:
+
+- **All files**: `@Flamki` — default owner for the entire repository
+- **Documentation** (`*.md`, `docs/`): `@Flamki`
+- **Source code** (`src/`, `public/`): `@Flamki`
+- **CI/CD and configuration** (`.github/`, `package.json`, `eslint.config.js`): `@Flamki`
+
+When you open a pull request, GitHub automatically assigns reviewers based on the paths you modified.
+This ensures PRs are reviewed by the maintainers most familiar with the affected code.

+## CI/CD Pipeline

+Every pull request triggers automated lint, test, and secret-scan checks via GitHub Actions.
+All three must pass before a PR can be merged. If a check fails, expand the job log
+in the Checks tab on your PR for the full diagnostic output.
+
+## PR Review Checklist
+
+Before marking your pull request as ready for review, verify:

+- Lint and format checks pass locally
+- Tests pass
+- No secrets or keys in the diff
+- Issue reference in description (Closes #NN)
+- Branch is up-to-date with upstream master
+- New files follow the existing directory structure
+- Commit messages use conventional commits format

+Maintainers will use CODEOWNERS assignments to route your PR to the right reviewer automatically.
