Code of Conduct

We require everyone to interact with dignity and respect. We prioritize:

• Inclusivity — welcoming language and empathy toward differing viewpoints.
• Constructive discourse — focusing on code and architecture, not personal attributes or perceived skill.
• Integrity — attributing code correctly and respecting the licensing terms of HiveLang templates.

The following behaviors result in immediate expulsion from community spaces:

• Harassment — sustained disruption of threads, personal attacks, or unwelcome sexual attention.
• Doxing — publishing another user's private information or physical location.
• Marketplace sabotage — knowingly publishing non-functional or malicious agents to harm the Hivestore's reputation.
• Impersonation — claiming to be an official Bothive moderator or contributor without authorization.

When building community agents, authors must ensure their agents don't exhibit bias or generate toxic output. LLMs are inherently unpredictable, so authors are responsible for safety system prompts that align with these values.

If you witness a violation, email safety@bothive.cloud. All reports are treated confidentially.

• Warning — for minor etiquette infractions.
• Temporary ban — for repeated minor or first-time moderate infractions.
• Permanent expulsion — for harassment, doxing, or malicious agent deployment.
