Summary

Removes the local SECURITY.md in combsmith/TalkTerm so the repository inherits the canonical org-wide security policy in combsmith/.github/SECURITY.md directly (10/10 on OpenSSF Scorecard).

Problem

When a repository defines a local SECURITY.md, both GitHub and OpenSSF Scorecard evaluate only that local file and ignore combsmith/.github/SECURITY.md. Removing the local file allows both GitHub's Security tab and scorecard --repo="github.com/combsmith/TalkTerm" to resolve combsmith/.github/SECURITY.md automatically (10/10).

Risk

Low — documentation cleanup only; org-wide policy in combsmith/.github/SECURITY.md takes effect immediately upon merge.

Test plan

  • Verified scorecard --repo resolves github.com/combsmith/.github/SECURITY.md (10/10) when no local SECURITY.md is present.

Rollback

Revert this PR commit.

Monitoring

Verify org-scorecard.yml resolves github.com/combsmith/.github/SECURITY.md (10/10) on the next scheduled scan.

Explanation

The title matches the main change. The PR deletes the local SECURITY.md so the repository inherits the organization-wide security policy, as the objectives state. The title uses the conventional commit prefix 'chore(security):' and names both the removed file and the reason, so a reader scanning history can identify the primary change. The title is 68 characters, which is within a normal single-line length.

Full details: Docstring Coverage
