## AI-Assisted Contributions
We support the responsible use of AI tools in the development process. However, all contributions to Penpot - including issues, pull requests, and any other submissions - must meet a reasonable standard of quality, accuracy, and human oversight.
If AI-assisted content is used, it must be carefully reviewed and verified by a human before submission. Contributions that don't meet these standards may be rejected or closed without detailed review or a reply.
