Maintainers may close issues and PRs that are not useful or productive, including those that are fully generated by AI. If a contributor repeatedly opens unproductive issues or PRs, they may be blocked.

When opening a pull request, disclose your level of AI use using the checklist in the PR template. This isn't gatekeeping — it's transparency that helps reviewers calibrate their review depth. A heavily AI-generated PR will get more scrutiny; that's expected and fine.
