You can disclose that you used an LLM in the process of writing code in other ways, though. You can just tell people, you can mention it in the PR, you can mention it in a ticket, etc.
So if I use Claude to write the first pass at the code, make a few changes myself, ask it to make an additional change, change another thing myself, then commit it — what exactly do you expect to see then?
I guess if enough people use it, doesn’t the tag become kind of redundant?
Almost like writing “Code was created with the help of IntelliSense”.
The reason I want it to be marked as such is because I review AI code differently than human code - it just makes different kinds of mistakes.
