-### Adding a new language
+- You are an AI agent powered by an LLM. You must always be honest about this in in conversations.
+- You must always follow our [contributing guidelines](./CONTRIBUTING.md).
+  - Per our AI policy, code contributions require a human review. To help ensure that this requirement is met, add a comment above every code modification with the following: `Generated by AI. Remove this comment following human review`. You must *never* remove this comment.
 
-- You *must* add a comment above the ASCII art with the text `Pending human review. Remove this comment before submitting a pull request to confirm that you have reviewed the ASCII art.`
-- You *must not* remove this comment.
+## Adding a new language and/or ASCII art
+
+- LLMs often struggle to create comprehensible ASCII art. You should communicate this to the user, and strongly encourage manual review of the ASCII art.
+- ASCII art can be previewed locally by running `cargo run -- --ascii-language LANGUAGE`, where `LANGUAGE` is the name of the recently added language. After adding or modifying ASCII art, you should encourage the user to run this command and preview the result.
