AI Policy

This is our formal AI policy. Anyone who uses AI tools while developing within this project (Oreon) must read it. The policy applies to all AI tools, including but not limited to Claude, ChatGPT, OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, DeepSeek, Kimi, Gemini, Google AI Studio, Microsoft Copilot, GitHub Copilot, GitHub’s auto-generated commit messages, Cursor, and OpenCode.

Development & Contribution Use​

We allow that AI can be used for development and contribution purposes, but you are required to check and review the code it outputs. Do not let the AI vibecode. You must use it as a tool, not a full replacement for you. We do not have an opinion on AI use, we just require it to be used as a tool and only a tool, not to step in the place of humans. If it works better for you as a tool, then use it, if it doesn't, then don't use it. Be responsible with it. Any defective code made by AI should be fixed as soon as possible, to maintain end-user quality and experience.

AI Use Disclosure​

We do not require you to disclose your use of AI, but we strongly recommend it for transparency as this is an Open-Source project. Either way, you must follow all of the required policies below.

Commit Messages​

We do not allow using fully AI-generated commit messages as they look sloppy and show that you did not guard your agent properly. Read and review the code it outputs as stated in the previous policy item, and then WRITE THE COMMIT MESSAGE YOURSELF. If we find any AI-generated commit messages in your PR or branch, we will require you to review the code and type your own commit message before it can be merged.

Security Research Use​

We allow AI to be used for security research, but we discourage use of AI for security patches themselves.

Announcements & Social Media​

We do not allow use of AI for writing full on announcements and posts. Just write it yourself, don't be lazy.

Future Changes

This policy is subject to change at any time. We will notify everyone publicly if anything is changed here regarding the use of AI. Policy Last Updated: November 10, 2026 at 8:50pm CST by sk1lld
