Overview

Section titled “Overview”

AI_COVENANT.md sets the norms for AI use in this repository. Its core principle: everything you contribute is yours, whatever tools helped create it. You are responsible for understanding it, verifying it, defending it in review, and meeting the project’s standards.

  • Reviews. AI review tools provide automated quality checks, not human reviews. Their comments are suggestions, a pull request owner may close them without response, and a pull request still needs human approval.
  • Discussions. AI tools may help you prepare, but AI systems must not directly post comments, replies or messages in GitHub issues or discussions, shared Slack channels, or mailing lists and email threads.
  • Disclosure. Disclose AI origin when proposing a fix to code you do not fully understand. Routine AI use needs no disclosure, and AI co-authorship in commit messages is actively discouraged.

CONTRIBUTING.md adds that an agent may not take part in discussion on your behalf.
