# Contributing to FilmCraft Thanks for helping. Before you start: 1. Read **[AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md)**. Its rules are absolute. In particular: no Adobe assets of any kind, every asset openly licensed with an attribution sidecar, no GPL/LGPL code, and ffmpeg only as an external test oracle. 2. Follow **[docs/contributing.md](docs/contributing.md)**: setup per OS, building and running, the quality gates (`cargo xtask ci`), commit conventions, and how to add commands, effects, transitions, codecs, panels and assets. More reading: [docs/architecture.md](docs/architecture.md), [docs/testing.md](docs/testing.md), [docs/agents.md](docs/agents.md), [ROADMAP.md](ROADMAP.md).
