```

## README

# Contribute A New API Surface

## Companion Guidance

Use `karpathy-guidelines` alongside this skill for implementation or review
work. Keep changes scoped, surface assumptions, and define focused validation
before editing.

Use this skill when contributing a public API addition or behavior change to the
runtime or bindings.

## Default Guidance

- Start from the shared core behavior first
- Decide which bindings must expose the new surface
- Follow the parity checklist in `add-binding-feature`
- Update docs and examples in the same branch

## Minimum Acceptance

- Public behavior is clearly described
- Every affected binding is covered
- The validation matrix matches the changed surfaces
- PR notes explain the user-facing change
