# Contribute

Add a model, component, research method, or evidence record without creating a one-off runtime path.

Document ID: `pllm.docs.contribute`  
Release: `0.1.0`

Start with the [component standard](/sdk/contribute/component-standard/). Model
families use shared operations, research methods transform plans, providers expose
generic capabilities, and benchmark or assurance results attach to exact versions.

Keep identity, implementation, coverage, evidence, quality, privacy, and deployment
status separate. Do not add compiler branches named after a paper or hidden
registration that exists only in one runtime.

No public Python API performs the contribution workflow. See [current support](/sdk/reference/status/)
before proposing a new public contract.
