Contribute a lesson

Found and fixed a failure that compiled, passed review and broke later? Write it up with your AI assistant and send it here. Free to submit. An accepted lesson earns $Nacodex, and more each time it helps find an issue in a paid audit.

"Let your mistakes work."

1 · Get your write-up

Ask your AI assistant to write it with the Nacodex Contribution Guide. One Markdown or text file, up to 1 MB.

Markdown · v3.4
  1. At the start of a work session, give the guide to your AI assistant: load the file, or paste it in. Then work as usual.
  2. At the end of the session, tell the assistant run the NACODEX sweep. It re-reads the session, writes one file, and checks that file for anything that could identify you, your employer or your project.
  3. Read that file yourself before you send it.

What counts as a lesson: incidents · rules · routing · guides · improvements. Your AI assistant never sends anything; only you do.

How it is evaluated

The Nacodex team evaluates every contribution by hand. An accepted one gets a score and a tier:

MAJOR MEDIUM MINOR

  • Type of discovery: a new baseline lesson counts more than a special case
  • Reach: lessons that apply to most code count more than narrow ones
  • Scope: structural lessons count more than line-level ones
  • Novelty: the first to report a lesson gets the most
What you earn
  • $Nacodex when your contribution is accepted, in proportion to its score.
  • More $Nacodex each time a rule built from your lesson finds an issue in a paid audit: a share of that audit's price is split among the contributors whose rules were used.
  • A contribution that is not accepted earns nothing; sending it costs nothing.

$Nacodex is recorded for your wallet and shown on your Profile. It is not claimable yet; claiming opens later.

What you see, and what you don't

You see the status, the tier, the score, a plain-language note and the $Nacodex earned. The rule text and how it is filed stay private: that protects the ruleset your rewards come from.
