# Land contribution

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | A maintainer or collaborator explicitly asks to review and land one external pull request. |
| Authority | Remote: merges or declines one external pull request, pushes maintainer commits, and posts approval and credit comments on GitHub; requires explicit human invocation. Inspect and preview the exact landing branch, reviews, comments, and close or merge consequences before any credential use or remote mutation. |
| Side effect | For an accepted contribution, create or update only `land/pr-<n>`, preserve the contributor's commits and authorship, add maintainer changes as separate commits, submit approval, land the result, and post a credit-bearing close comment. For a declined contribution, post thesis-tied reasons and retain the contributor branch. |
| Done | Remote state confirms preserved authorship, separately attributed maintainer edits, approval before closure, a credit comment on closure, an explanation of any rename to the author, or a decline whose stated reasons are tied to the contribution's thesis and whose branch remains intact. |

## Inputs

Required: repository identity, pull-request number, authenticated maintainer or collaborator access, and the repository's observable acceptance criteria and available checks. The pull request supplies its author, branch, commits, discussion, title, description, and changed files. An intended replacement title is optional; if supplied or discovered to be necessary, its reason must also be available before mutation.
