>From my perspective, AI agents must NOT use the Reviewed-by tag for the following reasons: - We consider this a "person-trailer" and it implies agency - Adding yourself to a commit via a trailer is a *binding responsibility* for the change. A lot of tooling will cc the Reviewed-by addresses on follow-up messages regarding code in this commit. If the address is bogus or doesn't go to a developer, this is both wasteful and potentially frustrating. -K
