First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Review the four linked specification resources and the issue discussion first. No repository file, test, or documentation location is named, and the issue does not define a repository change or completion criteria; an actionable scope would need to be clarified before implementation can begin.
