Rationale for this change
Definition of 'Fully Autonomous Agent'
A fully autonomous agent is an agent that operates without a human in the loop.
Issue
Some existing DataFusion contributions appear to come from fully autonomous agents:
https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pulls?q=is%3Apr+state%3Aclosed+author%3Aump45nose
We've explicitly asked them to stop submitting AI dumps and closed their PRs. However, they don't follow up on the feedback in those closed PRs and keep opening new ones.
This behavior resembles that of the "fully autonomous agents" described above.
This PR
I think no fully autonomous agents contribution has already been agreed on from previous discussion and existing AI policy:
This PR adds it explicitly to
AGENTS.mdand other related docs, hopefully this can reduce some of them.I suspect it's likely to see more of them, fully autonomous agents seem like the next big thing in AI, after today's codex/claude.
