As a maintainer just saying no and closing PRs is largely the solution

Sure, for FOSS. But at a business I'm not sure you'll stay employed long if you do this regularly and don't try to find ways to adapt to the new world we live in.

To be clear, I don't have an answer either. Reviews have definitely become a bottleneck, and the agent-created code has absolutely not reached a "broadly trustworthy" state for complex problems and maintainable contributions.

Agree, I was not talking about a business context.

But if people are submitting garbage in a business context you got other problems you need to address.

Depends on the corporate environment. Refusing to look at oversized PRs makes good business sense, there's an argument to be made that working like this sabotages the quality of the product.
