I think it makes sense for us to follow NumPy's policy, so this basically says "follow NumPy's policy" in a way agents will understand.

I had Claude Opus 5.5 draft these changes (hah!) and they were reviewed and iterated on by me.

Agreed, following NumPy's lead makes the most sense!

These instructions are aimed at LLMs. Should we not write instructions for the people behind them?

I didn't see an existing contributing section or anything so I added one in CONTRIBUTING.md (which GitHub automatically links to when you open PRs etc.)
