Pull request overview

This pull request adds Python HTTP server code and a Solidity smart contract directly to the README.md file in a malformed manner. The changes appear to be accidental or erroneous, as they include raw source code concatenated with markdown text using shell operators ('&&'), without proper formatting or documentation.

Changes:

Modified the Code of Conduct line by appending Python import statements with a '&&' operator
Added a Python HTTP server implementation for serving a "Nexus AGI Directory" endpoint
Added a complete Solidity smart contract for a Wrapped Testnet Bitcoin (wTBTC) token

💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.

An entire Solidity smart contract has been added to the README.md file without any markdown code block formatting. This appears to be source code that should either be in its own .sol file in the repository or, if intended as documentation, should be properly formatted within a markdown code fence (triple backticks with language identifier).

The Python HTTP server code exposes a potential security risk by serving files without proper access control or validation. If this code is intended to be included in documentation, it should include warnings about security considerations and not be recommended for production use without proper authentication and authorization mechanisms.

The documentation for this PR is missing. The PR description states "Describe your changes" without any actual description, and the changes add significant code without explaining why Python server code and a Solidity smart contract are being added to the README file, or how they relate to the project.

The added code appears to be completely unrelated to a README file. The content includes operational Python server code and a Solidity smart contract that should exist in separate source files (e.g., a .py file and a .sol file respectively) rather than being embedded in markdown documentation. This violates best practices for repository organization and file structure.

The line starts with markdown text about the code of conduct but then includes Python code concatenated with '&&'. This appears to be malformed content that should not be in the README. The '&&' is a shell operator that has no place in a markdown document, and Python import statements should not be mixed with markdown prose.

Python server code has been added directly to the README.md file without any markdown code block formatting. This code should either be removed entirely (if it's not intended for the README) or properly formatted within a markdown code fence (triple backticks) if it's meant to be documentation showing an example implementation.

README.md

+print(f"📂 Serving registry from: {FILE_NAME}")
+
+with socketserver.TCPServer(("", PORT), NexusHandler) as httpd:
+    httpd.serve_forever() && // SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT


The Python code block ends with '&&' followed by a C-style comment for Solidity code. The '&&' shell operator is inappropriate in a README file and creates malformed content. This appears to be accidental concatenation of unrelated code snippets.

Update README.md
