At insidcode, our core mission is to help developers build genuine, foundational problem-solving logic. True mastery comes from wrestling with algorithmic challenges, not copying solutions. This policy outlines our expectations for community integrity, fair competition, and platform usage.

insidcode is built for skill-building, self-assessment, and fair competition:

• Personal Effort: You are expected to solve problems using your own reasoning, mathematical logic, and analytical problem-solving skills.
• Plagiarism & Bots: Automatically scraping solution keys, using automated scripts or AI bots to auto-submit solutions, or submitting generated code purely to inflate your streak, XP, or leaderboard ranking undermines the platform and is strictly prohibited.
• Collaboration vs. Copying: Discussing problem logic, high-level algorithmic ideas, or pseudo-code with peers is encouraged. Copying and pasting another user's exact source code is strictly forbidden.

• Sandbox Container Integrity: You must not attempt to escape isolated runner sandboxes, exploit Linux kernel privileges, scan internal private networks, or manipulate system processes.
• No Malicious Payloads: Submitting malicious payloads, recursive process spawners (fork bombs), ransomware scripts, or network socket scanners will lead to immediate account suspension and IP blacklisting.

Global leaderboards and duels exist to celebrate consistency and genuine growth:

• Zero Tampering: Attempting unauthorized administrative access, privilege escalation, modifying leaderboard parameters, or forging Duel wins is strictly forbidden and results in immediate automated account suspension.
• Responsible Security Disclosure: If you discover a security vulnerability, authorization loophole, or test case evaluator bug, please report it responsibly via our Feedback Portal or email (contactphoenixfy@gmail.com) rather than exploiting it.

• No Scripting: You are strictly prohibited from using bots, scrapers, crawlers, automated submission tools, or custom scripts to interact with insidcode endpoints.
• Interactive UI Only: All code runs, submissions, and account actions must originate from authentic manual interactions through the official insidcode user interface.
