Motivation
The repository restricted pull request creation to collaborators, but its contribution guide still told external contributors to fork the repository and open a PR. That directed people toward a workflow they could not complete and did not clearly explain how they could participate instead.
Solution
Clarifies the contribution policy in README and CONTRIBUTING:
This PR does not add issue forms or templates. The existing issue-submission flow remains unchanged.
The following related work remains out of scope:
Docs
Nothing to document elsewhere. This PR updates the repository README and CONTRIBUTING guide; the lstk documentation site has no contribution section.
Review
Human review advised: this changes the user-facing participation policy presented on the repository's front door.
