 Some security problems are the result of interplay between different components of the Web, rather than a vulnerability in the web server itself. Please only report vulnerabilities in the web server itself, as we cannot coerce the rest of the Web to be fixed (for example, we do not consider IP spoofing, BGP hijacks, or missing/misconfigured HTTP headers a vulnerability in the Caddy web server).

+Vulnerabilities caused by misconfigurations are out of scope. Yes, it is entirely possible to craft and use a configuration that is unsafe, just like with every other web server; we recommend against doing that. Similarly, external misconfigurations are out of scope. For example, an open or forwarded port from a public network to a Caddy instance intended to serve only internal clients is not a vulnerability in Caddy.
 
 We do not accept reports if the steps imply or require a compromised system or third-party software, as we cannot control those. We expect that users secure their own systems and keep all their software patched. For example, if untrusted users are able to upload/write/host arbitrary files in the web root directory, it is NOT a security bug in Caddy if those files get served to clients; however, it _would_ be a valid report if a bug in Caddy's source code unintentionally gave unauthorized users the ability to upload unsafe files or delete files without relying on an unpatched system or piece of software.

 It will speed things up if you suggest a working patch, such as a code diff, and explain why and how it works. Reports that are not actionable, do not contain enough information, are too pushy/demanding, or are not able to convince us that it is a viable and practical attack on the web server itself may be deferred to a later time or possibly ignored, depending on available resources. Priority will be given to credible, responsible reports that are constructive, specific, and actionable. (We get a lot of invalid reports.) Thank you for understanding.

+            
+            This PR requires **approval from 2+ maintainers** before the tag can be created.
+            
+            ### What happens next?
+            
+            1. Maintainers review this proposal
+            2. When 2+ maintainer approvals are received, an automated workflow will post tagging instructions
+            3. A maintainer manually creates and pushes the signed tag
+            4. The release workflow is triggered automatically by the tag push
+            5. Upon release completion, this PR is closed and the branch is deleted
+

+# Caddy Project Guidelines
+
+## Mission
+
+**Every site on HTTPS.** Caddy is a security-first, modular, extensible server platform.
+
+## Code Style
+
+### Go Idioms
+
+Follow [Go Code Review Comments](https://go.dev/wiki/CodeReviewComments):
+
+- **Error flow**: Early return, indent error handling—not else blocks
+  ```go
+  if err != nil {
+      return err
+  }
+  // normal code
+  ```
+- **Naming**: initialisms (`URL`, `HTTP`, `ID`—not `Url`, `Http`, `Id`)
+- **Receiver names**: 1–2 letters reflecting type (`c` for `Client`, `h` for `Handler`)
+- **Error strings**: Lowercase, no trailing punctuation (`"something failed"` not `"Something failed."`)
+- **Doc comments**: Full sentences starting with the name being documented
+  ```go
+  // Handler serves HTTP requests for the file server.
+  type Handler struct { ... }
+  ```
+- **Empty slices**: `var t []string` (nil slice), not `t := []string{}` (non-nil zero-length)
+- **Don't panic**: Use error returns for normal error handling
+
+### Caddy Patterns
+
+**Module registration**:
+```go
+func init() {
+    caddy.RegisterModule(MyModule{})
+}
+
+func (MyModule) CaddyModule() caddy.ModuleInfo {
+    return caddy.ModuleInfo{
+        ID:  "namespace.category.name",
+        New: func() caddy.Module { return new(MyModule) },
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Module lifecycle**: `New()` → JSON unmarshal → `Provision()` → `Validate()` → use → `Cleanup()`
+
+**Interface guards** — compile-time verification that modules implement required interfaces:
+```go
+var (
+    _ caddy.Provisioner     = (*MyModule)(nil)
+    _ caddy.Validator       = (*MyModule)(nil)
+    _ caddyfile.Unmarshaler = (*MyModule)(nil)
+)
+```
+
+**Structured logging** — use the module-scoped logger from context:
+```go
+func (m *MyModule) Provision(ctx caddy.Context) error {
+    m.logger = ctx.Logger()
+    m.logger.Debug("provisioning", zap.String("field", m.Field))
+    return nil
+}
+```
+
+**Caddyfile support** — implement `UnmarshalCaddyfile(*caddyfile.Dispenser)` using the `Dispenser` API:
+```go
+// UnmarshalCaddyfile sets up the module from Caddyfile tokens. Syntax:
+//
+//     directive [arg1] [arg2] {
+//         subdir value
+//     }
+func (m *MyModule) UnmarshalCaddyfile(d *caddyfile.Dispenser) error {
+    d.Next() // consume directive name
+    for d.NextArg() {
+        // handle inline arguments
+    }
+    for nesting := d.Nesting(); d.NextBlock(nesting); {
+        switch d.Val() {
+        case "subdir":
+            if !d.NextArg() {
+                return d.ArgErr()
+            }
+            m.Field = d.Val()
+        default:
+            return d.Errf("unrecognized subdirective: %s", d.Val())
+        }
+    }
+    return nil
+}
+```
+
+**Admin API**: Implement `caddy.AdminRouter` for custom endpoints.
+
+**Context**: Use `caddy.Context` for accessing other apps/modules and logging—don't store contexts in structs.
+
+## Architecture
+
+Caddy is built around a **module system** where everything is a module registered via `caddy.RegisterModule()`:
+
+- **Apps** (`caddy.App`): Top-level modules like `http`, `tls`, `pki` that Caddy loads and runs
+- **Modules** (`caddy.Module`): Extensible components with namespaced IDs (e.g., `http.handlers.file_server`)
+- **Configuration**: Native JSON with adapters (Caddyfile → JSON via `caddyconfig/httpcaddyfile`)
+
+| Directory | Purpose |
+|-----------|---------|
+| `modules/` | All standard modules (HTTP, TLS, PKI, etc.) |
+| `modules/standard/imports.go` | Standard module registry |
+| `caddyconfig/httpcaddyfile/` | Caddyfile → JSON adapter for HTTP |
+| `caddytest/` | Test utilities and integration tests |
+| `cmd/caddy/` | CLI entry point with module imports |
+
+### Critical Packages
+
+`caddyhttp` and `caddytls` require **extra scrutiny** in code review—these are security-critical.
+
+## Quality Gates
+
+
+**All required before PR is merge-ready:**
+
+| Gate | Command | Notes |
+|------|---------|-------|
+| Tests pass | `go test -race -short ./...` | Race detection enabled |
+| Lint clean | `golangci-lint run --timeout 10m` | No warnings in changed files |
+| Builds | `go build ./...` | Must compile |
+| Benchmarks | `go test -bench=. -benchmem` | Required for optimizations |
+
+CI runs tests on **Linux, macOS, and Windows**—ensure cross-platform compatibility.
+
+### Build & Test
+
+```bash
+# Build
+cd cmd/caddy && go build
+
+# Tests with race detection (matches CI)
+go test -race -short ./...
+
+# Integration tests
+go test ./caddytest/integration/...
+
+# Lint (matches CI)
+golangci-lint run --timeout 10m
+```
+
+## Testing Conventions
+
+**Table-driven tests** (preferred pattern):
+```go
+func TestFeature(t *testing.T) {
+    for i, tc := range []struct {
+        input    string
+        expected string
+        wantErr  bool
+    }{
+        {input: "valid", expected: "result", wantErr: false},
+        {input: "invalid", expected: "", wantErr: true},
+    } {
+        actual, err := Function(tc.input)
+        if tc.wantErr && err == nil {
+            t.Errorf("Test %d: expected error but got none", i)
+        }
+        if !tc.wantErr && err != nil {
+            t.Errorf("Test %d: unexpected error: %v", i, err)
+        }
+        if actual != tc.expected {
+            t.Errorf("Test %d: expected %q, got %q", i, tc.expected, actual)
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Integration tests** use `caddytest.Tester`:
+```go
+func TestHTTPFeature(t *testing.T) {
+    tester := caddytest.NewTester(t)
+    tester.InitServer(`
+    {
+        admin localhost:2999
+        http_port 9080
+    }
+    localhost:9080 {
+        respond "hello"
+    }`, "caddyfile")
+    
+    tester.AssertGetResponse("http://localhost:9080/", 200, "hello")
+}
+```
+
+Use non-standard ports (9080, 9443, 2999) to avoid conflicts with running servers.
+
+## AI Contribution Policy
+
+Per [CONTRIBUTING.md](.github/CONTRIBUTING.md), AI-assisted code **MUST** be:
