Valid Footer Formats

1. Authored-by: [Human] <email> - Human only, no AI involvement
2. Commit-generated-by: [AI Tool] <email> - Trivial AI (docs, commit msg, reviews, advice, etc)
3. Assisted-by: [AI Tool] <email> - AI helped, but primarily human code
4. Co-authored-by: [AI Tool] <email> - Roughly half is AI generated and half human-authored content
5. Generated-by: [AI Tool] <email> - Majority of code was AI generated

All patterns are case-insensitive.
