AI BriefingNext.js Bans AI-Generated Commit Footers
Key point
An analysis of AGENTS.md files from the top 100 GitHub repositories revealed that Next.js explicitly prohibits adding AI-generated commit footers.
Details
An analysis of AGENTS.md files from the 100 most-starred repositories on GitHub revealed specific restriction rules regarding AI agent usage.
The Vercel Next.js project explicitly states not to add "Generated with Claude Code" or co-author footers to commits or PRs.
These rules serve as "scars" to prevent mistakes previously made by AI agents. The 100 analyzed repositories contained a total of 784 explicit prohibition rules.
Key examples include:
- Bun: Prohibits running
bun testdirectly - Hugo: "Do not write novels" (to prevent unnecessary code generation)
- Neovim: The entire file consists solely of AI-disclosure rules
Based on this analysis, a copy-paste-ready AGENTS.md template extracted from all repositories was also released.
