Document the contribution policy: we accept issues, not pull requests. Maintainers handle design and implementation through a prompt-driven workflow. Contributors who have already built a change locally should share the prompt they used rather than a diff. Cross-reference the policy from AGENTS.md.

…icy (#1517) GitHub auto-populates pull_request_template.md into every new PR body, so it steers would-be external PR authors to CONTRIBUTORS.md before they submit a diff. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The policy takes effect after v2/main merges into main, leaving a single line of development. Tell contributors to open a well-formed issue rather than routing them to per-version project boards. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
