### AI Assisted Contributions
When AI tools provide non-trivial assistance in generating or modifying code, you must:
1. **Review thoroughly**: You remain responsible for all code you submit. Review and understand AI-generated code with the same care as code you write manually.
2. **Disclose in PR**: Always mention when a pull request includes AI-generated code. Add a note in the PR description.
3. **Mark commits**: Add attribution using commit trailers such as `Co-authored-by:` (other projects use `Assisted-by:` or `Generated-by:`). For example:
```text
Your commit message here
Co-authored-by: GitHub Copilot
Co-authored-by: Claude
Co-authored-by: gemini-code-assist
Signed-off-by: Your Name <your.email@example.com>
```
AI-assisted code must meet all quality standards: proper testing, documentation, adherence to style guides, and thorough review. Attribution helps reviewers evaluate contributions in context and maintains legal clarity for the project.
### PR Title and Classification

### AI Assisted Contributions
AI tools can accelerate development, but contributors remain fully responsible for all code they submit. Like the Developer Certificate of Origin, this policy centers on accountability: contributors must believe they have the right to submit their contribution under vLLM's open source license, regardless of how the code was created.
All AI-assisted contributions must meet the same quality, testing, and review standards as any other code. Contributors must review and understand AI-generated code before submission—just make sure it is good code.
Attribution preserves legal clarity and community trust. Contributors must disclose AI assistance in pull requests and mark commits with appropriate trailers (e.g. `Co-authored-by:`).
### Slack
Contributors are encouraged to join `#pr-reviews` and `#contributors` channels.
