Summary

Adds policy-catalogue/bevy.md for the Bevy Organization, closing #16. Source pinned to cd91a95 in bevy-website; the policy lives on the website (added in bevyengine/bevy-website#2204, 2025-10-14) and bevy/CONTRIBUTING.md links to it.

The thing I'd point you at: Bevy is the only policy in the catalogue that reasons explicitly about its own enforceability. The [^1] footnote exempts trivial LLM completions on the stated ground that they are "by definition not detectable" — the ban is drawn at the limit of what anyone can observe, and the policy says so. Every other prohibition in the corpus is silent about that gap. Three more v0.2 signals in the entry's notes: a prohibition that ships its own detection heuristics, a two-step S-Nominated-to-Close enforcement workflow, and retroactive removal as a sanction (no other entry has one).

I left policy-catalogue/README.md untouched deliberately — #21 and the Home Assistant PR also touch that table, and three PRs editing the same rows would conflict. Happy to send a single follow-up updating the count and rows once you've decided the merge order, or to add it here if you'd rather each PR carry its own.

AI disclosure (required — we dogfood our own standard)

  • AI-assisted — tool and role: drafted by Claude (Claude Code) working under my direction. Every verbatim excerpt was verified programmatically against the pinned source (cd91a95) before submission — 7 of 7 string checks passed.

Attestations (required)

  • understands-change — I can explain every part of this entry and the sources behind it.
  • reviewed-output — reviewed before submission. Being precise about the mechanism rather than just ticking: I reviewed a structured walkthrough of the entry plus the verification output confirming each quoted string exists at the pinned commit, rather than reading the rendered diff line-by-line.
  • ran-tests — N/A (prose only).

Type of contribution

  • Policy-catalogue entry (single file in policy-catalogue/)

Sources

Maintainership disclosure: I maintain MergeWarden, a checker in the layer-3 space discussed in #20/#22. This entry documents Bevy's policy only and makes no claim about any tool.

Closes the Bevy catalogue-entry issue. Source pinned to cd91a95 in
bevy-website so the verbatim excerpts survive link rot.

…ntries (#30)

The single follow-up promised once #21, #23-#29 were in. Count 13 to 20,
seven rows added, and the closing line from twelve adopted policies to
nineteen plus the one proposal.

Each row's distinctive feature is the axis that entry adds to the
catalogue rather than a summary of the policy, matching the existing rows:

- Home Assistant — the only policy disclosing the project's own AI use,
  and template bypass as the observable proxy for autonomy
- Mesa — the only graduated disclosure vocabulary, and incompatible with
  both Fedora and Kubernetes on the same mechanism
- OpenStreetMap — the only permissive policy asking for no disclosure at
  all, enforcing on absence of understanding
- FreeBSD — the only policy protecting the project as training data; its
  AI clause is a routing rule rather than a stance
- Bevy — the only policy reasoning about its own enforceability
- Zig — the strictest, and the only one reaching upstream of the artifact
- Asahi Linux — the only stance derived from a pre-existing rule rather
  than written fresh

Every link in the table resolves to a file, and every file in
policy-catalogue/ except README and TEMPLATE appears in the table.
