As discussed in today's TSC meeting.

There may be some ideas we can borrow from https://llvm.org/docs/AIToolPolicy.html - for example "good first issue" should not be picked up by AI is a good one.

I took inspiration from https://github.com/zulip/zulip/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#ai-use-policy-and-guidelines

lgtm

I'd be against this contribution policy update. While many different opinions exist on the licensing terms of the code produced by LLMs, my opinion is that the generated code isn't explicitly licensed and attributed to the original authors so it cannot be considered open source regardless of the used prompt.

Suggested change

      
            * **Verify accuracy** of any LLM-generated content before including it in a
          
              PR description or comment.
          
            * **Complete pull request templates fully** rather than replacing them with
          
              LLM-generated summaries.

This isn't in the document anymore.

In #61478 (comment) , regarding the usage of Claude Code, @mcollina suggested:

As it seems that you have a different position on this issue, I will bring this to the attention of the @nodejs/tsc for an official vote. On a side note, I would also officially summon the topic at the next OpenJS board meeting.

I added it to the TSC agenda tomorrow for awareness/context collection before moving to a proper vote. @indutny sorry about the short notice since this is just one day ahead of the meeting, but if you'd like to join the meeting to present your points please let us know.

lgtm with a sentence removed

@joyeecheung thanks for considering me for this! I'd be happy to join if the time isn't in conflict with my work meetings tomorrow. Could you send me an invite, please?

nodejs/TSC#1830 this is the issue. It might be reschedueld to the next meeting if there is low attedance given the timezone.

I think we can schedule the discussion for April 1st which will be in the morning PT so a lot of people can join, and I would table the vote for that session. I would try to get an answer from the Board by then.

Linting seems to be failing, that said it does look like this PR is ready?

LGTM with one final wording suggestions, thanks!

The link https://ai-coding-assistants-policy.openjsf.org/ is now fixed.

This is redundant to the opening principle
