In their own words
Code contributions
If you are a new contributor, do not use LLM or AI tools to contribute at all; you do not have the trust or experience to take responsibility for what is generated.
your contribution must still genuinely be understood and created personally by you, regardless of what tools you may use to assist you.
If your contribution appears generated by LLM or AI tools, or you attempt to obfuscate that, it will be closed and you are likely to be blocked.
Issues & bug reports
This policy applies to all interactions with our projects and community, not only code and pull requests.
AI-written text
Do not use LLM tools to translate or "improve" what you say and do.
This includes code, documentation, tests, PR descriptions, comments, reviews, answers, and all other interactions.
