Description

Draft the methodology/acknowledgments disclosure a journal would expect,
distinct from CONTRIBUTING.md's "On AI-assisted development" section
(that one is dev-facing; this one needs to satisfy a journal's disclosure
policy).

Framing to keep consistent with CONTRIBUTING.md and the project's public
community replies: credit human direction and ownership as the primary
frame, be specific about what was AI-assisted (implementation scaffolding,
multi-platform validation runs, sanitizer testing, documentation) versus
human-directed (architecture decisions, the underlying math, validation
methodology, and the citation audit in #88), and don't oversell AI's share
of the work.

Sepand flagged this as one of two things that matter most before adding
more depth to the project, alongside the citation audit (#88). A voice
message with more journal-specific guidance is expected as a follow-up.

Research direction

Start by reading CONTRIBUTING.md and the project’s public community replies to align the disclosure’s framing. Draft a journal-ready methodology or acknowledgments section that separates AI-assisted activities from human-directed work, including the citation audit in #88. Check the expected voice message for journal-specific guidance before considering it done.
