How AutoGPT uses AGENTS.md and skill gating to manage AI-generated pull requests.

AutoGPT maintainers found that AI agents do not proactively read documentation, so they put instructions in AGENTS.md and skill files next to the code directories. Through gating mechanisms such as mandatory PR templates, test plans, CI coverage thresholds, and CLA signatures, they turned agent-submitted PRs from “unusable” into “usable but not aligned with the roadmap.” Because CLA signing requires a browser and OAuth flow, it is used as a “human detector” to distinguish humans from agents.
