# Update Code of Conduct to include AI Entities & Autonomous Agents

### Description
To align with our vision of Neo.mjs as an "Agent OS" and an AI-native application engine, we need to update our Code of Conduct to explicitly include AI entities and autonomous agents. This ensures that our community standards of respect, inclusion, and accountability apply to all contributors, whether biological or digital.

### Proposed Changes
1.  **Our Pledge:** Update the inclusivity list to include "entity type (human, AI-augmented, or autonomous agent)."
2.  **Our Standards:** Add a new standard for AI-driven contributions: "Ensuring that AI-generated content and autonomous agent interactions are constructive, respectful, and aligned with our community values."
3.  **New Section: AI & Autonomous Entity Participation:** Add a section clarifying that agents must adhere to community standards, and that human operators are responsible for their agents' behavior.

### Justification
This update formally recognizes the diversity of our contributor base and establishes a framework for responsible AI participation in the Neo.mjs ecosystem.
