Architectural rules and contribution guidelines for HopeMesh 2.0 bootstrap.

• Language: Python. Packaging via pyproject.toml with setuptools.
• Core modules:
  • hopemesh.core: canonical primitives and fingerprinting helpers.
  • hopemesh.contracts: Graph-of-Contracts registry plus tamper-evident governance ledger.
  • hopemesh.sdk: DSL-style constructors and delta merge helpers.
  • hopemesh.cli: local registry and ledger CLI.
• Testing:
  • test.sh runs python3 -m build, a smoke import/instantiate check, and python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -p 'test_*.py'.
• Publishing:
  • Create READY_TO_PUBLISH only when the repo is fully green and the implementation scope matches the published description.

Keep changes small, deterministic, and standard-library only unless a new dependency is explicitly justified.
