# redot-engine: AI-friendly with conditions

> Redot Engine explicitly allows contributors to use LLMs and agentic coding assistants, as long as the human understands and takes responsibility for the work, tests pull requests manually before review, discloses AI involvement in art assets, and keeps licensing clear. Purely AI-generated artwork is not permitted, and unreviewed, low-effort or spammy AI output may be rejected.
