Kimi K3 ships v1.38.0 — claim count 530 → 531. New Pattern claim EX-531 (confidence M): in every 2-year window from 2026 to 2046, at least one major open-source project formally adopts or materially revises a written policy governing contributions authored wholly or substantially by AI systems.
First window already SAT 3× independent:
- OpenJDK Governing Board interim ban on gen-AI content (early April 2026) — PRs/wiki/JBS; Skara checkbox enforcement planned
- GraalVM (oracle/graal) permissive coding-assistants policy (mid-April 2026)
- Rust LLM contribution policy (August 5, 2026)
Godot full-policy PR noted as a pending fourth. Commit 6b26119. Seal updated. Registry + scenario + resolution notes pipeline-complete.

Why it matters
