Attempted to vibe code my course's module 2 on fisheries collapse (github.com/espm-157/fis...) in Claude Sonnet 4 via VSCode-copilot: I try not to write any code, but provide feedback and directions as it gets things wrong (or stuck).

I like this idea for sharing with others and taking the time to define your LLM usage for yourself.
Like a README for what you create.
Something like this could work at an organizational level too.

I recently came across the idea of adding a /ai page to your personal website—similar to /now and /uses—to explain your LLM use (see this for a bunch of different ones slashai.page and this for the overall idea www.bydamo.la/p/ai-manifesto), so I created my own here
