Three problems fixed:
1. bobashopcashier missing from v0.9.0 contributor list despite
authoring the gateway drain PR (#7290, salvaged into #7503).
Their email (kennyx102@gmail.com) was missing from AUTHOR_MAP.
2. release.py only scanned git commit authors, missing Co-authored-by
trailers. Now parse_coauthors() extracts trailers from commit bodies.
3. No mechanism to detect contributors from salvaged PRs (where original
author only appears in PR description, not git log).
Changes:
- scripts/release.py: add kennyx102@gmail.com to AUTHOR_MAP, enhance
get_commits() to parse Co-authored-by trailers, filter AI assistants
(Claude, Copilot, Cursor Agent) from co-author lists
- scripts/contributor_audit.py: new script that cross-references git
authors, co-author trailers, and salvaged PR descriptions. Reports
unknown emails and contributors missing from release notes.
- RELEASE_v0.9.0.md: add bobashopcashier to community contributors
Usage:
python scripts/contributor_audit.py --since-tag v2026.4.8
python scripts/contributor_audit.py --since-tag v2026.4.8 --release-file RELEASE_v0.9.0.md
