Hmm.

I do not think imagines should be posted to AO3. However, as a writer who has written prompt fic, if I'm posting that prompt fic anywhere other than in reply to the prompt, then I include the prompt in either the summary or notes and if the prompter was not anonymous, I definitely include the name, and I try to link to where the prompt was originally posted. If I wrote a fic and it was based on someone's imagine, I would make sure to put that somewhere - that just feels like basic etiquette to me.

Big same. This feels like the most simple, decent thing to me.

I agree. Imagines (and prompts, in many ways they're the same thing) can range from a basic one-liner to a several thousand word long full outline, and no matter how vague or specific it is, if I write a fic based on one, I will always credit it. I think that's just a basic courtesy. I would lose a lot of respect for an author if I somehow found out they had used an imagine as inspiration and not credited, especially if it was a detailed imagine.

And aside from anything else, as an author who sometimes uses prompts to write, I like sharing the source of my inspiration! Even if it's just a vague anon prompt on a kink meme, I find it adds to the excitement of sharing my work when I can also point to the seed that eventually grew into that work! Why on earth would someone not want to share that?

NA - Well said! I second every word of this.
