🎯 Changes

Clarify how to submit focused, reviewable contributions to TanStack Table. Require contributors to search for duplicates, follow the PR template, understand any AI-assisted code, run the project-specific workflow for code changes, and include changesets for published package changes.

Add lightweight CodeRabbit guidance and a root AGENTS.md so automated reviewers and coding agents use the same contributing rules.

  • I have tested code changes locally with pnpm test and pnpm test:e2e, or these tests do not apply to this pull request.

🚀 Release Impact

  • This change affects published code, and I have generated a changeset.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to ebd73

This PR updates contribution guidance, but the checklist still permits contributors to skip tests without the conditions required by the contribution guide, which could allow inadequately validated code changes. Clarify the opt-out wording or obtain explicit owner acceptance before merging.
