[](#llm-and-genai-usage) Large Language Models have been and may be used to assist with Converse's development, including writing and refactoring code, editing documentation and research. Converse does not implement its own cryptography. OMEMO end-to-end encryption is delegated to [libomemo.js](https://github.com/conversejs/libomemo.js); see that project's own [LLM and GenAI usage](https://github.com/conversejs/libomemo.js#llm-and-genai-usage)note for how its security-critical code is verified. Within Converse, correctness is checked independently of any AI. The test suite runs in a real browser, and every change, however it was drafted, is reviewed by a human maintainer who remains responsible for it, exactly as for any third-party contribution. ### Contributing with AI assistance [](#contributing-with-ai-assistance) Using LLMs or coding agents to help write your contribution is allowed. AI is a legitimate tool, and we won't reject a patch simply because a model helped write it. But the bar is the same as for any other pull request: - **Understand what you submit.** You are responsible for your contribution. Be able to explain how it works and why it's correct. - **Test it.** Your code must build and pass the test suite, and new behaviour should come with tests. - **Disclose it.** Note in your pull request that AI tooling was used. This is about honesty and giving reviewers context, not stigma. - **No slop.** Unreviewed, untested, auto-generated output thrown over the fence will be closed. Volume is not contribution, and reviewing it costs maintainers real time. If you're driving Converse with a coding agent, start with [`AGENTS.md`](./AGENTS.md), which documents the architecture, conventions and build/test workflow the project expects.
