Rules about AI-assisted code contributions

Generated AI code can be accepted, under some conditions:

Carefully review and understand all the code you submit, and be able to explain it if asked.
Provide proof of manual testing of the changes, with screenshots or ideally a video.
Include in the pull-request message, or in commit messages, the prompts you used to generate the code, and the AI tool you used.

General guidelines for pull requests

Explain why the change is needed, and what problem it solves.
Link to any relevant issues or discussions.
Prefer small, focused pull requests that only change one thing at a time.
Mark the pull request as a draft if you have not run the code.
Only mark the pull request as ready when you have confirmed that it works as intended - be on the lookout for edge cases.
If you're unsure about something, or want to ask if the change is desired before doing the work, ask us in the programming channels on https://discord.gg/lichess
