If it gets traction, I expect a tool like vouch to be rife with abuse. Someone
will trawl through GitHub repositories to see who has a AGENTS.md file, make a
list of those users and share it with others. Some will denounce users not just
for slop contributions, but also for behavior or opinions they don't agree
with. And some will be happy to use lists collated by the community because
they're already there so why not reuse that work?
You can already see it on Matrix where some people moderate hundreds of rooms
and share ban lists with each with no way to appeal.
