Contributors (Implementation & Tooling)
No modification of the IR. No governance. Implementation only.
Contribution Boundaries
Contributors work on implementation and tooling. The core IR specification is immutable and not subject to external modification or governance.
Implementation
Build backends that conform to the v1.0 specification
Tooling
Create development tools, debuggers, and analyzers
Documentation
Improve documentation and educational materials
Testing
Create comprehensive test suites for conformance validation
- • Modifications to the IR specification
- • New opcodes or semantic changes
- • Alterations to validation rules (P1–P5)
- • Changes to determinism guarantees
- • Governance or decision-making authority
These elements are locked. If you believe they should change, you misunderstand the purpose of Universlang.
1. Understand the Specification
Read the full specification. Understand the opcodes, validation rules, and determinism guarantees. Your contribution must be conformant.
2. Build Independently
Implementations are independent artifacts. Build your backend, tool, or documentation according to the specification. No approval process is required.
3. Validate Conformance
Test your implementation against the validation suite. If it produces different results than the reference implementations, your code is incorrect.
4. Share Your Work
Publish your implementation, tool, or documentation. Make it available to others. Universlang benefits from a diverse ecosystem of conformant tools.
Contribution is not governance.
You implement. You do not decide.
The specification is the authority.
