AI

AI policy

What the project says about AI-made contributions

Restricted

“AI-assisted contributions are accepted; unreviewed AI output is not. [...] If your PR was made with the help of AI, you must convey that this is the case using the PR template.”

Element-wide policy in element-meta CONTRIBUTING.md (added 2026-11-02), which says it applies to all element-hq repositories; the repo's own CONTRIBUTING does not link it yet. Commit messages may be AI-drafted if reviewed; reviews may use AI tools, but only a human approves or closes a PR.
