## LLM Disclosure
141+
142+
Contributors are required to disclose whether the proposed changes (code or otherwise) were automatically generated
143+
by an LLM / "AI agent".
144+
145+
The changes must in all cases have been *thoroughly reviewed and understood* by the contributor, who has full responsibility over them.
146+
147+
Please avoid proposing LLM-generated changes as-is without a full review and understanding, as this disrespects
148+
the reviewers' time and may cause your future contributions to be automatically rejected if reiterated.
149+
150+
Likewise, PR comments and any sort of engagement with other contributors must not be parroting LLMs or chatbots.
151+
At the reviewers' discretion, PRs suspected to contain low-effort copy-pasting from LLM tools may be closed.
152+
153+
In short, a tacit agreement of mutual respect is expected from all parties involved.
