Contributor guide

Research direction
Search the entire codebase for occurrences of 'whitelist' and 'white list' using grep or your editor's find function, then replace each with the inclusive alternative (e.g., 'allowlist' or 'allow list'). Ensure all references, including variable names, comments, and documentation, are updated consistently. Run any existing tests to verify no breakage.
