Contributing

Contributions are welcome.

Development Guidelines

  1. Keep the core elevation mechanism simple.
  2. Preserve audit logging and integrity checks.
  3. Avoid features that weaken Windows security boundaries.
  4. Maintain administrator‑first design philosophy.

Default branch name

The public default branch is Exodus. Raw GitHub URLs and checksum manifests target it; update branch overrides through migration-safe procedures instead of casual renames. The V8.4 release codename Prometheus Contract is not a Git branch name.

Workflow

Fork the repository and create a feature branch.

Submit a pull request with:

  • clear description
  • testing notes
  • security considerations

Validation

Before opening a PR that changes PowerShell scripts, run ./tools/Validate-Windo.ps1 in PowerShell 7 (local) or rely on the GitHub Actions workflow.
