Within this file, Code of Conduct links are currently relative (e.g., CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md on line 11). Consider making this new link consistent (use the same relative link format) and avoid typographic apostrophes (’), since the rest of CONTRIBUTING.md uses straight apostrophes.

### Security note

SECURITY.md is currently formatted as inline code, so it won’t be a clickable link in Markdown. Consider linking it (e.g., [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md)) for easier navigation.
