System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the need for clear, documented pathways for individuals to progress within an open-source project, from new contributors to core maintainers. It formalizes roles, responsibilities, and the process for advancement.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Formalizes Roles: Defines distinct levels within the project (e.g., Community Participant, Contributor, Reviewer, Maintainer).
  • Outlines Advancement: Specifies the criteria, responsibilities, and privileges associated with each role.
  • Establishes Processes: Details the nomination and voting procedures for role transitions.
  • Use Case: A growing CNCF project needs to onboard new contributors effectively and provide a clear path to becoming a maintainer. This Skill helps create the CONTRIBUTOR_LADDER.md file to guide this process.

Quick Start

Create or update the CONTRIBUTOR_LADDER.md file with project-specific roles and advancement criteria.
