+1. Submit a pull request to the `develop` branch
+    1. Verify all cloud checks pass without crashing
+    1. Await a PR review for potential revisions or feedback

+
+## Submitting New Tasks
+
+If you want to submit new conditions, actions, decorators, or composites please keep the following in mind.
+
+* Each task should be committed as an individual *feature* so it compiles to release notes properly
+* Tasks should include a custom white icon (preferably from https://material.io/tools/icons/). See any composite task for a good example
+* All tasks require integration with the tree builder script
+* You must also include documentation in the `README.md` that demonstrates how to use the task and what it does
