pi maintainer Mario Zechner sets a new rule: unapproved issues and PRs will be auto-closed immediately

pi 是 OpenClaw 背后的 Agent 底层框架，它的核心维护者 Mario Zechner 最近宣布了一项新的规则：所有未提前申请批准的 issue 和 PR（代码合并请求），提交之后会立刻被机器人自动关闭。

pi maintainer Mario Zechner says any issue or PR submitted without prior approval will be auto-closed, after he started receiving 30 to 50 issues per day and most were AI-agent spam. He will still review closed submissions daily; strong issues can earn an “lgtmi” tag, and strong issue-plus-fix PRs can earn “lgtm,” exempting future submissions from auto-close. The shift to watch is simple: open source projects are raising contribution gates to filter zero-cost AI-generated noise.

Why it matters: Featured on strong HKR-H/K/R: a maintainer-level policy change with concrete spam numbers and a review mechanism. Importance stays in the mid-70s because the blast radius is mainly the OSS agent/dev community, not a major model or platform release.
