 Specialised but deterministic tools may optionally be listed, but their use
 should be clear from other context in the commit message.
 
+Note that an `Assisted-by:` tag relates to the next tag mentioning a
+natural person. So if you used AI to write a patch, the `Assisted-by:` tag
+should be just before your `Signed-off-by:` tag, while if AI was used to
+find an issue the patch is fixing, the `Assisted-by:` tag should be
+before the `Reported-by:` tag naming the reporter of the issue.
+
+The `Assisted-by:` tag can be followed by an optional comment mentioning
+in which part of the process AI was used, e.g.:
+
+    Assisted-by: Chat-GPT # commit message
+
+This allows even to list multiple different AI models used for different
+use cases, including the use of AI for finding an issue and the creating
+a patch for fixing it.

 Example:
 
-    Assisted-by: Claude:claude-3-opus
+    Assisted-by: sashiko-bot # finding the issue
+    Assisted-by: Claude:claude-3-opus # patch creation
