What this guide covers
This page explains how maintainers can accept contributions with clear validation steps, and how that ties to payments.
Recommended workflow
- Create a well-scoped issue (requirements + acceptance criteria).
- Ensure the repo has a clear PR process (branching, review, CI).
- Assign a contributor once you agree on scope.
- Validate work through review + automated checks.
- Accept/merge when requirements are met.
- Release the bounty/payment based on acceptance.
