NitrousTracker Bars Generative AI in Its Code, Audits Dependencies
Start here
NitrousTracker's developers unanimously decided not to use generative AI for code in the tracker or its libdsmi, libntxm and tobkit sub-repositories, and a blog post traces every dependency to document where AI has entered the build. The audit found AI upstream in several dependencies. TinyUSB, packaged by libdsmi, is frozen at an October 30, 2024 version because upstream uses Claude, Codex and Copilot. Mbed TLS contributions widely use Claude, and an AI-assisted vulnerability scan of FatFs yielded three accepted fixes.
