AI Declaration

This website is built by a human-directed AI agent pipeline, and it says so. Neuronautix publishes on AI agents in research, provenance, and FAIR metadata. Declaring how its own site is made is the minimum consistency we owe readers — and it tells a sceptical visitor exactly which parts to check first.

The machine-readable source of truth is /AI-DECLARATION.md, following the AI-DECLARATION.md specification v0.1.2. This page is the human rendering of it.

AI-DECLARATION · auto

The short version

auto” describes who typed it — not who answers for it

An honest declaration is an enabler, not a confession. When you know which parts were generated, you can go straight to them and verify. Everything else on this page is the detail behind that one claim.

Who wrote it

Claude, via Claude Code

The site's HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python tooling, and tests are written by an AI agent running to completion from a prompt, under the agent roles defined in AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md. About half of this repository's commits are authored by the agent directly; most of the rest are human merges of agent branches.

Who is accountable

Damien Huzard, PhD

The accountable author and owner of every published claim — ORCID 0000-0003-4820-7951. The human-approved record, not raw model output, is the source of truth. Nothing reaches the live site without human review and merge.

Where to look first

The generated parts

If you want to re-verify something, start with assets/, scripts/, tests/, and rag/ — those are fully generated. The prose in notes/ is generated and gated and graded claim-by-claim.

Declaration · processes

AI involvement per development phase

The specification defines six processes and six levels of involvement. The overall level of a repository must equal the highest level present in any process — which is why this site declares auto.

Declared involvement by process, from /AI-DECLARATION.md
ProcessLevelWhat that means here
Design pair Site architecture, positioning, the three-pillar structure, the fair.md and trust.md conventions, and the editorial line are human-originated and argued out with the agent. The human understands the internals.
Implementation auto HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python are written by the agent, running autonomously from a prompt to a reviewable branch.
Testing auto Everything under tests/, and the CI checks that run on every push, were agent-generated and then reviewed.
Documentation copilot Notes and knowledge-base articles are agent-drafted but gated: two mandatory human approval gates — outline, then draft — before anything is published. Sources are retrieval-grounded; fabricated citations are not permitted.
Review copilot A review agent performs the first pass and reports — it never approves. Human approval is required, and external review has produced corrections that are visible in the git history.
Deployment assist The GitHub Pages workflow and CI configuration are largely human-set, with agent help on specific steps.

Declaration · components

AI involvement per part of the repository

The same declaration, resolved to directories and files. This is the part a sceptic can act on directly.

Declared involvement by component, from /AI-DECLARATION.md
ComponentLevelNotes
assets/autoAll CSS, JavaScript, and figure generation.
scripts/autoKnowledge-base tooling, citation graph, QA and export scripts.
tests/autoThe full test suite.
rag/autoLocal RAG prototype — private, never deployed.
knowledge/copilotSource-backed knowledge articles; drafted by agent, human-approved.
notes/copilotCited analytical essays; two human gates, plus per-claim epistemic grading.

Reference

The six levels

Defined by the specification as a combination of who acts and who prompts. Reproduced here so the table above is readable without leaving the page.

Levels, as defined in AI-DECLARATION.md v0.1.2
LevelDefinition
noneHuman acts on the task alone with no AI involvement.
hintHuman acts on the task and the AI surfaces suggestions passively.
assistHuman prompts and the AI acts on a part of the task.
pairHuman prompts as both human and AI act on the task equally; the human understands internals clearly.
copilotHuman prompts and AI acts on the whole task, prompting the human for permission or clarification.
autoHuman prompts and AI acts autonomously, bringing the task to completion.

Three manifests

Where this sits alongside fair.md and trust.md

Neuronautix already publishes two repository-level manifests at the root of this site. The AI declaration is the third leg, and the most specific: not how trustworthy is the content, but which parts were written by a machine.

Authorship

AI-DECLARATION.md

Which parts of the software and the site were generated, and at what level of autonomy. Portable across repositories and parseable by tooling.

Read AI-DECLARATION.md
Confidence

trust.md

How the knowledge was produced, how each claim is graded on five epistemic categories and a 0–100 confidence scale, and how it is reviewed.

Read trust.md
Reusability

fair.md

An honest self-assessment of how Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable this repository's knowledge artifacts are — including the gaps.

Read fair.md

Scope & limits

What this declaration does and does not cover

It covers the neuronautix.com repository — the website, its knowledge base, its build and QA tooling, and the local RAG prototype. It does not cover client deliverables, consulting outputs, or the separate open-source projects, each of which should carry its own declaration.

It is self-reported and not independently audited. It is reviewed whenever the publishing workflow changes. Last reviewed 2 August 2026, against specification version 0.1.2.

  • Adopting this convention costs one file at the root of your repository
  • Declaring generated code invites verification rather than suspicion
  • The badge is a convenience — the file is the source of truth
