+# 2026-07-10 — Allow AI attribution in commits
+
+```
+Type: log
+```
+
+## Intent
+
+Remove the repository-specific prohibition on crediting AI contributors in
+commit messages. Cameron decided that accurate AI attribution is acceptable;
+the existing plain-message and explicit-staging rules remain.
+
+## Changed
+
+- Removed the AI-attribution prohibition from `AGENT.md`.
+- Updated the workflow knowledge to state that AI attribution is allowed.
+- Kept commit prose free of decorative emoji while allowing standard marks in
+  attribution footers, and retained the ban on `git add -A`.
+- Closed Tangled issue #5 because its requested enforcement no longer matches
+  repository policy.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `./tools/check.sh --docs`
+- `./tools/check.sh --land`
+
+## Spec impact
+
+No game behavior or design law changed. This is a repository process-policy
+update adopted directly by Cameron.

 - Intent: Survey every action and command already exposed by the game, then create one binding spec that says which words are canonical, what they mean, and whether they are live, interface-only, aliases, stubs, or retired.
