🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial
Verify Private Vulnerability Reporting before merging.
This policy makes GitHub Private Vulnerability Reporting the only report path. If the repository setting is disabled, reporters cannot submit reports through the linked flow. GitHub requires repository owners or administrators to enable this feature before private reports can be submitted. Verify the setting and confirm that the linked reporting flow is available before publishing this policy. (docs.github.com)

The documentation itself is clear and matches the approved policy, but this PR is not merge-ready yet. Please address these blockers:
- Rewrite or squash commit
d498d09e. Its subject,Potential fix for pull request finding, is not a Conventional Commit, and its CopilotCo-Authored-Bytrailer conflicts with the repository contribution policy. - Before merge, a repository owner must enable Private Vulnerability Reporting and verify the API returns
enabled: true. The policy makes that flow the only reporting channel, so merging while it remains disabled would leave issue #3273's core acceptance criterion unmet. - Apply exactly the
type:docslabel. - Authorize and rerun the required GitHub Actions workflows on the final head. At present only CodeRabbit has reported a successful check.
The two documentation files otherwise look good: the security-policy path is supported, the CONTRIBUTING.md link resolves, the supported-release guidance matches current releases, and git diff --check passes.

.github/SECURITY.mdCONTRIBUTING.md🤖 AI Assistance
Tool/model (if known):
OpenCode with OpenAI GPT-5.6 Sol and GPT-5.6 Terra.
Material scope:
AI assistance was used to analyze issue #3273, draft the security policy and contributing-guide update, and perform a structural review of the resulting documentation diff.
Verification performed:
The final diff was read back and checked with
git diff --check. The policy path andCONTRIBUTING.mdlink target were verified locally. GitHub release data was checked to confirm that the current channels are stablev2.3.0and prereleasev2.4.0-rc.8; the policy intentionally uses durable channel names rather than version numbers.The contributor reviewed and accepts responsibility for the complete submission.

A repository owner or administrator must enable Private vulnerability reporting under the repository security settings. Until that setting is enabled, the policy's private Report a vulnerability link will not provide the intended reporting flow.
