Community

ACT is a small, BDFL-led project. The fastest way to get help, propose ideas, or follow what’s coming is one of the channels below.

GitHub Discussions

The primary forum lives at github.com/act-spec/act/discussions. Use it for questions, ideas, show-and-tell, and informal proposals before they become full ASPs.

Chat

A public chat channel lands at v0.2.0 stable. Until then, GitHub Discussions is the venue.

Discord/Matrix invite — TBD post-launch.

Reporting issues

• Bugs — file via the bug report issue template.
• Feature requests — use the feature request template.
• Spec changes (ASPs) — start with the ASP discussion template, then graduate to a full proposal under spec/proposals/.
• Security — see the security policy.

Contributor guide

The full contributor guide lives at CONTRIBUTING.md. The short version:

1. Fork the repo and create a feature branch.
2. pnpm install, then run pnpm test && pnpm -r conformance.
3. Sign your commits with -s (DCO is enforced via CI).
4. Open a PR against main with a changeset describing the change.

Code of conduct

ACT follows the Contributor Covenant 2.1. Maintainer contact for conduct issues: maintainers@act-spec.org.

Reference adopters

If you ship a public docs or product site and want to be one of the marquee reference adopters for the v0.2 launch, open a Discussion or email maintainers@act-spec.org. We’ll co-author the integration PR and the co-launch blog post.
