[dDevAhmed]

Summary

Implements CLI-013 by defining explicit ownership for security-, release-, dependency-, CI-, and current trust-boundary-sensitive paths without applying a blanket owner to ordinary contributor work.

Included

• .github/CODEOWNERS
• verified repository admin @dDevAhmed as the initial real owner rather than inventing a team/alias
• ownership for GitHub Actions, Dependabot, CODEOWNERS, Changesets, package metadata, lockfile, changelog, security policy/docs, threat-model/trust-boundary docs, release/security ADRs, and current error/output boundaries
• docs/contributing/ownership.md explaining scope and future evolution
• CONTRIBUTING link to the ownership/review model

Review model

CODEOWNERS expresses and requests ownership review. It does not by itself require approval. Mandatory code-owner review must be enabled separately through the repository ruleset after the actual status checks and ownership boundaries are established.

Scope control

The repository does not use a catch-all * @owner rule. Ordinary features, tests, and general documentation therefore remain contributor-friendly unless their security profile later justifies explicit ownership.

Security

• CODEOWNERS owns itself
• sensitive path coverage cannot be removed silently without owner review intent
• workflow/release/package/security changes route to an administrator with repository access
• future deployment, credentials, publishing, remote template/plugin, and destructive filesystem modules should extend CODEOWNERS as they are introduced
