May want to keep a minimal checklist, including pnpm build, pnpm format:check, commits are signed off, etc.

I added back into 2 points. But I deally I think these should already be enfornced by our CI

Could add more info on how to contribute, such as:

  • Fork repo and create PR to this repo
  • DCO/commit signoff
  • pnpm build and pnpm format:check (already mentioned in README, but also should be mentioned quickly here too I think)

Depends on the repo, I was just thinking of mandatory items someone needs for their PR to pass inspection and be merged. Some overlap with the template checklist and what CI enforces, but good for devs to see the list in CONTRIBUTING so they can read before they create a PR.

I would suggest to keep this comment block in the template but adjust to use the CONTRIBUTING.md you created.
