Mesa updates AGENTS.md to allow AI-assisted code comments and commit messages

The Mesa 3D graphics driver project has updated its AGENTS.md file to clarify its stance on AI usage. The change allows developers to use LLMs to generate initial drafts of code comments, commit messages, or patch descriptions, as long as the final output is manually reviewed and edited by a human. This update aims to prevent unnecessary friction in developer workflows without changing the project's core AI policy.

Clarifying the distinction between private workflow and project policy

• The update removes language that previously restricted AI agents from contributing directly to GitLab or generating code comments and commit messages.
• The core project policy regarding AI remains unchanged following previous community discussions.
• The change focuses on 'private' developer workflows, allowing AI to assist in the initial drafting stage.
• Human oversight is a mandatory requirement for all AI-assisted contributions to ensure final quality and accountability.

Why it matters

This move acknowledges the reality of modern developer workflows where AI tools are increasingly used for boilerplate and documentation tasks, while maintaining human-centric quality control in a major open-source project.
