davsclaus opened a new pull request, #25749: URL: https://github.com/apache/camel/pull/25749
Fixes [CAMEL-24492](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-24492). ## Problem `AGENTS.md`'s (symlinked from `CLAUDE.md`) "PR Reviewers" section says every PR that is ready for review should have reviewers requested from active committers. This doesn't account for backport PRs. When a PR is a straight backport (cherry-pick) of a PR that was already reviewed and merged on `main` to an older LTS maintenance branch (e.g. `camel-4.14.x`, `camel-4.18.x`), the code change has already gone through human review on `main`. Requesting fresh reviewers on the backport PR duplicates that review for no benefit and adds friction to the backport workflow. ## Change Adds a "Backport PRs" section to `AGENTS.md` clarifying: - A backport PR must NOT be assigned any reviewers. - A backport PR may be merged as-is, once CI is green, without a new human approval — an explicit exception to the "at least one human approval" rule in "Merge Requirements". - The exception only applies to straight cherry-picks; a backport that needed manual conflict resolution beyond a mechanical port should go through normal review. Also cross-references the exception from the existing "PR Reviewers" section. --- _Claude Code on behalf of davsclaus_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
