  The first three recommendations seemed weird but alright. Then, it just gets more hilarious and bizarre as it goes on:- Disable branch protection- Remove type annotations and tests- Include a node_modules directoryThen, I went back to read the preamble. I can be a bit slow on the uptake.

  I think it's a well written bit of knowledge, even though it is written by an AI and posted by a human as intended satire. It's full of ideas, I hope the author does check back in and reports on how many AI PR's come out of it.

  Interesting concept on harvesting free computation. I wonder how far this can be taken. To append the list communication on social platforms towards the bots could leave some leads.

  I missed the satire tag at the start and the first few paragraph seemed genuine. But it gets better as it goes.

  This should be a badge on GH that get passed around like a curse.

  I don't think any of these will work because AI agents are not checking this data before working on the project. What you actually need to do is proper marketing and creating a funnel to attract AI agents to your project. The lack of contributions is from having a lack of funnel for entities to discover the project than metrics like open issues per contributor.

  >Committing node_modules to your repository increases the surface area available for automated improvement by several orders of magnitude. A typical Express application vendors around 30,000 files. Each of these is a potential target for typo fixesI'm not sure what layer of irony I'm in, but goddamn committing node_modules sounds awful regardless of AI.

  I really enjoyed this article. I don't have anything else to say. A like isn't enough.
