- Line 34: In the policy text, update the phrase “care must be take” to “care
must be taken,” leaving the surrounding content unchanged.
- Line 34: Update the contributor licensing requirement in the paragraph
beginning “Contributors must therefore take responsibility” to require
verification of license compatibility and compliance with all applicable license
terms for submitted code and data, rather than merely confirming that
open-source or data licensing conditions exist.
- Line 38: Update the contribution guidance around “Output from such tools” to
specify that only diagnostic output is excluded from submissions; clarify that
formatting or source-file changes remain part of the submission and require the
stated review, licensing, and attribution checks.
- Line 32: Update the contribution policy statement around generative-tool usage
to require contributors to personally write documentation, descriptions,
discussions, and other informative material, while retaining contributor
responsibility for reviewing and understanding submitted code or content.

Fixes #8914.
Description
This adds a tool-assisted policy to the contribution documents. This is meant to cover AI and other tools collectively. As discussed we want to permit the use of AI tools without compromising the quality of PRs. We still require human review and analysis as stated in the policy.
