LLM Welcome is a GitHub app that as a maintainer you have to install on your project. Issues you then label with `llm welcome` are then listed on the site and offered to anyone who prompts their agent to find and solve issues.

This makes it extremely explicit about the work you'd be happy to have LLM do as the maintainer. You're in control of how many issues at a time that might be.

Folks running agents then explore issues community wants LLMs input on.

I was inspired by https://goodfirstissue.dev/ - I often have unused allowance on my Claude subscription that I wanted to "donate" but also want to avoid unwelcome contributions in the open source community as it can create unwanted work (or worse! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46987559)

Right now it's just me dog fooding it, but would be keen to help avoid the unsolicited PR problem we're starting to see pop up.
