OWASP/CheatSheetSeries AI coding statistics: 10.1%

of 189 commits in February–September 15, 2026 were committed by an AI agent — a floor, not an estimate

Adoption is broad. Many contributors are committing agent-authored work, which is what a real organisational rollout looks like.

What shapes this result

Mode, timing, and detected signatures show whether the result reflects broad adoption or one concentrated workflow.

Assisted or autonomous

19assisted
0autonomous

Assisted — a developer’s identity authored the commit and the agent added itself as co-author. Autonomous — a bot identity authored the commit without a human identity attached. Across the whole index, 96% of agent commits are assisted.

What entered the denominator

The result begins with commit history, removes merges and routine automation, and reports literal agent signatures as a lower bound.

Bots are excluded from the denominator entirely. Agent attribution requires a literal supported signature; no code-style inference is used.

Pinned to a source state

This observation names the repository state, release, and detector that produced it. Use these identifiers when reproducing or citing the result.

Position among comparable repositories

The cohort uses the same release and measurement window, then narrows to the repository’s ecosystem and removes low-activity observations.
