Code of Conduct

This project welcomes questions, critique, and collaboration. It also requires civility and evidence. The rules below help us keep discussion productive, fair, and reproducible.

Contact for moderation and reports: hello@onestardao.com


Short version

  • Be respectful. Argue ideas, not people.
  • Read before you judge. Engage with the actual files and methods.
  • Critique with evidence that others can reproduce.
  • No harassment, brigading, or doxxing.
  • AI-only hot takes without reading the repo are not acceptable.
  • Maintainers may close or lock threads that are not constructive.

Scope

This Code applies to all project spaces. This includes GitHub Issues, Discussions, PRs, Wiki, and any official mirrors or documentation linked from this repository.


Our standards

Expected behavior

  • Stay on topic. Use specific references to files, commits, or DOIs.
  • Be accurate and charitable. Summarize what you think the author claims before you disagree.
  • Provide enough detail for others to reproduce a result. Prefer facts over speculation.
  • Accept correction gracefully. Credit sources and contributors.
  • Use clear language. English or Chinese are both welcome.

Unacceptable behavior

  • Personal attacks, slurs, or harassment.
  • Trolling, sealioning, or derailing threads.
  • Repeated allegations without verifiable evidence.
  • Doxxing or attempts to reveal personal identity.
  • Spam, link bombing, vote brigading, or mass reporting.
  • AI-only drive-by criticisms such as “this repo is all hallucination” that do not engage with the actual content.
  • Misrepresentation of results or screenshots.

Evidence-based critique policy

This repository publishes reproducible artifacts and has received substantial community attention (1000+ stars and many real user reports). We welcome criticism that improves the work. We require that critiques meet a minimal bar so that maintainers and readers can evaluate them quickly.

When you claim an error, please include:

  1. What you tried to reproduce: file path or DOI, commit hash or tag, and the exact prompt or command.
  2. Your environment: model name or version, OS, Python or tool versions.
  3. What you expected and what you observed. Include logs or diffs if possible.
  4. A minimal example that others can run.

Issues or discussions that do not meet this bar may be labeled non-actionable. Maintainers may request more detail. If none is provided, the thread can be closed to reduce noise. Repeated non-actionable posts can lead to locks or account blocks.


Science and skepticism

  • Skepticism is healthy. Bad-faith dismissal is not.
  • “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence” applies both ways. If you claim a failure, bring data that someone else can check.
  • We track corrections publicly. If an error is confirmed, we will document it and thank the reporter.

Moderator guidelines

Maintainers use a progressive ladder. They may skip steps for severe cases.

  1. Nudge: friendly reminder of this Code with a link.
  2. Request revision: ask for missing evidence or clarity.
  3. Move or merge: consolidate off-topic or duplicate threads into a central discussion.
  4. Close: end non-constructive or non-actionable threads.
  5. Lock: prevent further replies if a thread attracts harassment or repeats.
  6. Block or report: for harassment, doxxing, or coordinated abuse.

A “Critiques and Questions” mega-thread may be pinned during high traffic. New critique threads can be redirected there.


Reporting

If you experience or witness behavior that violates this Code:

  • Email hello@onestardao.com with links, screenshots, and context.
  • Do not engage in prolonged fights. We will review and respond.

We keep reporter information confidential when legally possible.


Maintainer responsibilities

  • Apply the rules consistently and document decisions briefly.
  • Prefer transparency. Close rather than delete. Lock rather than hide.
  • Provide clear paths to reproduce results and to file actionable reports.
  • Update FAQs when a recurring question appears.

Appeals

If your post was closed, locked, or removed and you believe this was a mistake, email hello@onestardao.com with the thread link and a short explanation. We will review. Repeated appeals without new information may be ignored.


A note about platform incidents

Distribution mirrors can fail or be taken down by automated systems. We keep a single source of truth in this repository. External DOIs or mirrors will be linked and versioned when available. If a platform removes a link, we document the change and provide an alternative.
