<h3>Greptile Summary</h3>
This PR adds a new `CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md` to the repository root, adapted from the Speak Up! project template. It is a documentation-only change with no impact on application functionality.
- **Incomplete sentence on line 11**: The reporting section ends with "please see our " — the intended link or resource name was never filled in, leaving a broken sentence.
- **Unadapted template reference**: Line 9 still references "DSF events" (Django Software Foundation), which was not updated to reflect OpenClaw.
- **Naming convention mismatch**: The file uses "Openclaw" throughout, but the project convention (per `AGENTS.md`) is **OpenClaw** (camelCase C). All other community docs (`CONTRIBUTING.md`, `AGENTS.md`) use "OpenClaw" consistently.
<h3>Confidence Score: 3/5</h3>
- This is a documentation-only PR with no code changes, so there is zero risk to application functionality. However, the document has content issues that should be fixed before merging.
- Score of 3 reflects that while the PR has no technical risk (documentation only), it contains an incomplete sentence (broken reporting instructions), an unadapted template reference ("DSF events"), and a naming convention mismatch. These are straightforward to fix but should be addressed before merging a governance document.
- `CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md` — incomplete sentence on line 11, unadapted "DSF events" reference on line 9, and naming convention inconsistency throughout.
