@danzin Relying on how Claude Code signs commits for crediting is extremely sloppy, if I'm allowed to speak my mind. When researching material for my article I had to find those commits and even though it wasn't hard, it wasn't trivial either. And besides, you are implying that there are more usages of LLMs for larger changes, and presumably those do not have Claude as co-author. What if someone uses another LLM? Those need to be easily searchable as well.

@miguelgrinberg I've had to e.g. ask Claude Code to credit Gemini as the LLM tool I used, so transparency is feasible and IMO helps. People who want nothing to do with LLM generated code, reviewers, all get a clear signal. The DevGuide policy doesn't mention disclosure of or crediting LLM tools. I expect more contributions have been with them. If your position is that it should always be disclosed, I can agree to that to a point. Say, when a significant part of the code was generated by an LLM.
