Research direction
Start by inspecting the repository's Python setup, dependency configuration, tests, and linting tools to identify the exact prerequisites and commands. Create CONTRIBUTING.md at the repository root covering setup, tests, branch naming, commit conventions, pull requests, and code style. Done means every acceptance criterion is documented accurately for a new contributor.

Description
Summary
Add a CONTRIBUTING.md file with development setup and contribution guidelines.
Motivation
A CONTRIBUTING.md file helps new contributors understand how to set up the project locally, coding standards, and the contribution process (branch naming, commit messages, PR process).
Acceptance Criteria
- Create CONTRIBUTING.md at repository root
- Document prerequisites (language version, package manager)
- Include setup instructions (install dependencies, run tests)
- Describe contribution workflow (branch naming, commit conventions, PR process)
- Mention code style / linting tools used
Additional Context
This lowers the barrier for new contributors and ensures consistent code quality.
