+# AOSSIE Best Practices Checklist
+
+> Criteria adapted from the [OpenSSF Best Practices Badge](https://github.com/coreinfrastructure/best-practices-badge)
+> (MIT / CC BY 3.0) by OpenSSF contributors. Modified for AOSSIE multi-repo template use.
+
+> **Purpose:** Covers OpenSSF Best Practices criteria that are NOT auto-detected by OpenSSF Scorecard.
+> Scorecard already handles: License, SAST tools, CI tests, Security Policy file, Branch Protection,
+> Pinned Dependencies, Signed Releases, Maintained status, and Known Vulnerabilities.
+>
+> **How to use:**
+> 1. Fill in checkboxes below — tick `[x]` for Met, leave `[ ]` for Unmet, use `[~]` for N/A
+> 2. Add a brief note or URL after each item as evidence
+> 3. Run the checklist-score workflow to update the badge automatically
+>
+> **Legend:**
+> - 🔴 MUST — Required for passing
+> - 🟡 SHOULD — Required unless documented rationale given
+> - 🔵 SUGGESTED — Optional but recommended
+> - ⚪ N/A — Mark `[~]` if not applicable, add justification
+
+---

+
+---
+
+## 📎 Project-Specific Notes
+
+> Add domain-specific notes here for Web3, Full-Stack, or AI projects.
+
+### Web3 / Solidity Notes
+- Scorecard does not audit Solidity-specific security. Use [Slither](https://github.com/crytic/slither) for `static_analysis` and `warnings` criteria.
+- For `crypto_*` criteria, document which cryptographic primitives your contracts rely on (e.g., ECDSA in EVM is standard).
+- Smart contract audit reports count as evidence for `know_secure_design`.
+
+### Full-Stack / Next.js Notes
+- For `crypto_password_storage`: document which auth library handles hashing (e.g., NextAuth + bcrypt).
+- For `dynamic_analysis`: [OWASP ZAP](https://www.zaproxy.org/) can be run as a GitHub Action.
+
+### AI / LLM Notes
+- For `know_common_errors`: include awareness of prompt injection, data leakage, and model output validation.
+- For `dynamic_analysis`: consider adversarial input testing as a form of dynamic analysis.
+
+---
+
+*This checklist complements [OpenSSF Scorecard](https://scorecard.dev/) (auto-detected checks) and is
+inspired by the [OpenSSF Best Practices Badge](https://www.bestpractices.dev/en/criteria/0) passing criteria.*

+
+## 📜 Pull Request Guidelines
+
+1. **Create a Feature Branch:**
+ ```bash
+ git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name
+ ```
+2. **Quality Checks:**
+ Run lint and test commands before submitting:
+ ```bash
+ npm run lint
+ npm run test
+ npm run build
+ ```
+3. **Commit Messages:**
+ Use clear, descriptive commit messages following Conventional Commits (e.g., `feat: add social share buttons`, `fix: header logo alignment`).
+4. **Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO):**
+ Ensure your commits adhere to our [`DCO.md`](DCO.md).
+
+---
+
+## 📋 Code Style & Architecture
+
+- **Next.js 16 App Router:** Use React Server Components by default. Use `"use client"` only for interactive stateful components.
+- **Tailwind CSS v4:** Use central semantic CSS variables (`bg-background`, `text-foreground`). Avoid ad-hoc inline dark classes.
+- **Internationalization (i18n):** User-visible strings should be added to catalog files in `src/messages/en.json` and `src/messages/hi.json`. Use navigation helpers from `src/i18n/navigation.ts`.
+- **Zero TODOs Policy:** Ensure all code, documentation, and metadata files contain no remaining `TODO` placeholders.
+
+Thank you for contributing to AOSSIE & Resonate!
