New feature in AgentScan GitHub app: the honeypot comment. This comment is intended to welcome regular users, but it also contains a hidden comment that only AI agents will read. This will prompt them to write a specific custom string that will immediately close the PR and add a label as automations

Community conferences just hit different. I'll take 5 super-engaged attendees over 10,000 people barely talking to each other every time.

Wow! Hard to overstate what an incredible move this is by @joshuakgoldberg.com & co. Very appreciated, much honored. Rest assured of two consequences: 1. it shall be spread to contributors and maintainers of dependencies 2. it shall lead to more deleted code 🧡 Thank you, team Mocha! 🤎

I look forward to the day when I no longer have to see issues and pull requests with blatant obvious AI slop. I hate it so much. It makes me not want to code anymore.
