+### AI-Generated Code
+
+Given the nature of this project, we expect most contributions involve AI assistance — that's fine. What we require is **heavy human curation**. You must understand every line you're submitting, have made deliberate choices about what to include, and be able to explain your reasoning.
+
+We will reject PRs that read like raw LLM output: bulk refactors nobody asked for, unsolicited "improvements" across many files, or changes where the submitter clearly hasn't read the existing code. Using AI to write code is normal here; using AI as a substitute for thinking is not.
