AnkiDroid AI Tool Use Policy

We expect that contributors will provide a net benefit to AnkiDroid over time, in return we offer mentorship and guidance.

AI generated contributions are nullifying our mentorship efforts by consuming guidance meant for humans and shifting the responsibility of ensuring correctness onto our code reviewers.

This policy aims to:

  • Ensure contributors can contribute without AI assistance.
  • Provide reviewers with a framework to block contributions which do not benefit AnkiDroid.
  • Ensure mentors are mentoring people, not AI output.

New Contributors

Before you have 3 merged pull requests, you may not use any AI tools to produce contributions for AnkiDroid. This includes code, documentation, and GitHub comments (including spelling and grammar corrections).

If a reviewer suspects that any part of a contribution is produced with AI tools, a warning will be issued. Pull requests may be closed at the reviewer's discretion.

You may be banned from the repository if this occurs a second time.

Contributors

  • You must be able to explain all your contributions.
  • AI tools should not be used to produce GitHub comments, including filling in the pull request template.
  • Contributions that make nontrivial use of AI tools must be labelled, with the tool version.

Commit messages must use the Assisted-by: git trailer with an explanation of the contributions in the description.
