GhosTTY accepts LLM contributions, but has strict rules around it:
https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/blob/main/AI_POLICY.m...I accept LLM contributions to most of my projects, but have (only slightly less) strict rules around it. (My biggest rule is that you must acknowledge the DCO with an appropriate sign-off. If you don't, or if I believe you don't actually have the right to sign off the DCO, I will reject your change.) I will also never accept LLM-generated security reports on any of my projects.
I contribute to chezmoi, which has a strict no-LLM contribution (of any kind) policy. There've been a couple of recent user bans because they used LLM‡ and their contributions — in tickets, no less — included code instructions that could not have possibly worked.
Those of us who have those rules do so out of knowledge and self-respect, not out of gatekeeping or ignorance. We want people to contribute. We don't want garbage.
I think that there needs to be something in the repo itself (`.llm-permissions`?) which all agents look at and follow. Something like:
# .llm-permissions
Pull-Requests: No
Issues: No
Security: Yes
Translation Assistance: Yes
Code Completion: Yes
On those repos where I know there's no LLM permissions, I add `.no-llm` because I've instructed Kiro to look for that file before doing
anything that could change the code. It works about 95% of the time.
The one thing that I will never add or accept on my repos is AI code review. This is my code. I have to stand behind it and understand it.
‡ I disagree with those bans for practical reasons because the zero-tolerance stance wasn't visible everywhere to new contributors. I would personally have given these contributors one warning (closed and locked the issue and invited them to open a new issue without the LLM slop; second failure results in permanent ban). But I also understand where the developer of chezmoi is coming from.
