Architectural rules and contribution guidelines for HopeMesh 2.0 bootstrap.

- Language: Python. Packaging via pyproject.toml with setuptools.
- Key modules:
  - hopemesh.contracts: Graph-of-Contracts registry skeleton and primitive types.
  - hopemesh.sdk: Tiny DSL-like helpers for LocalProblem, SharedVariables, PlanDelta, Policy, AttestationHint, AuditLog, PrivacyBudget.
  - hopemesh.cli: Lightweight command-line interface stub for adapters and governance operations.

- Tests and build:
  - test.sh should run: python3 -m build and a quick import/instantiate smoke test.
- Publishing:
  - Create READY_TO_PUBLISH when all checks pass.

This document is a placeholder for the initial bootstrap rules. As the repo evolves, update with concrete testing commands and CI expectations.
