Nothing wrong at all with separating out Claude’s work with commits! In fact, it’s preferable IMO — it lets people browsing the history identify code that was primarily written by AI.

But it actually doesn't.

This is not just a hypothetical but a non-common workflow: I already wrote upstaged code change myself. I ask claude to review it, and if ok, commit and push.

At no point did claude author any of it, just a review. So a co-author statement is false.
