We're starting to see increasing maintainer burden in one of our (smallish) open source projects due to GenAI / LLM code and comment "contributions" (or rather: encumbrances)

As a result we want to ban those altogether. Any tips on how, specifically, to do this? Is there some metadata we can put on our repo? Do we just put it in the readme and in the contributing guidelines? Do we add an issue template / PR template? All of the above?

@_wurli ah yeah, that looks interesting! Perhaps a bit too involved for the level of the project I'm talking about (±50 GitHub stars, only a few external contributions)?

@erikjan that’s fair! Maybe a simple CONTRIBUTING.md would be enough then, if your contributors are willing to follow it
