Walkthrough

The pull request revises project and development guidance in AGENTS.md, replaces the AI-use policy with an LLM policy in AI_POLICY.md, and updates contributor and Claude guidance.

Changes: Repository Guidance and Contribution Policy

Layer / File(s)	Summary
LLM policy and contributor wording `AI_POLICY.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`	`AI_POLICY.md` sets out LLM disclosure, human accountability, translation, and automated-system rules. `CONTRIBUTING.md` updates its LLM wording.
Project and development guidance `AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md`	Revises project and architecture descriptions, changes the documented code-generation command to `make gen`, and updates development and commit guidance. `CLAUDE.md` now references `AGENTS.md`.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other

Suggested reviewers: rycochet

Merge Risk: Low · up to 15771

The new LLM policy says all non-human interactions will be ignored, yet it also relies on CodeRabbit reviews. A small wording change to exempt approved automated reviews would remove the contradiction. This is a documentation-only inconsistency and is safe to merge with that follow-up.

Explanation

The title "docs: use a more strict ai policy" matches the main change. The PR replaces the AI usage policy with a stricter LLM-focused AI_POLICY.md, and updates CONTRIBUTING.md, AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md to reference it. The title is short, specific, and follows a conventional commit style. It does not cover the AGENTS.md command and authentication updates, which is expected.

- Line 13: Correct the Markdown link in the AGENTS guidance so “AI policy” links
to AI_POLICY.md using valid link syntax. Preserve the existing instruction’s
meaning.

Review comments at @AI_POLICY.md:
- Line 44: Clarify the LLM translation exception in the translation rule in
AI_POLICY.md: state whether a contributor’s description containing an LLM
translation and the original-language text is accepted, and reconcile that
exception with the surrounding human-written-interaction requirements.
- Line 60: Update the automated-system ban statement to apply only to unapproved
third-party automation, and explicitly exempt maintainer-approved tools such as
CodeRabbit and agents authorized by the project’s contributor guidance.

- Line 44: Update the human-written rule in AI_POLICY.md to exempt approved
automated reviews, including CodeRabbit, from the requirement that
community-facing content be written by a human. Keep the exemption consistent
with the approved review workflow and ensure the rule does not cause those
reviews to be ignored.

Review comments at @CONTRIBUTING.md:
- Line 6: Update the AI Policy reference in the contributor note to use valid
Markdown link syntax, so “AI Policy” links to AI_POLICY.md instead of rendering
as plain text.
