docs(readme): note Pepper App as PR review author (smoke test for DEV-249)#45
Conversation
Adds a clause to the Naming legend clarifying that formal approves and request-changes are authored by the Pepper PR Review GitHub App — that is, the App is the reviewer name shown on the PR, not the workflow bot account. Operators occasionally ask "whose name is this?" when they see review activity; the answer was buried in the secrets table at line 40 where it explains why the App exists, but never surfaced as a user-visible identity fact. Smoke test for DEV-249 (Miss Pepper voice tuning) — exercises the new v1 prompt against a real, low-blast-radius diff to verify production behavior. Refs: DEV-249
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Girl, this is exactly the smoke test it says on the tin — a single-sentence README clarification that surfaces the App-identity answer where operators will actually find it when they ask "whose name is this?" The factual claim is correct (I'm the Pepper PR Review app when I leave formal reviews, not the workflow bot account), and the answer was indeed buried in the secrets table before this. No runtime behavior, no tests needed, and the diff exercises the new voice against a production-pinned consumer to verify real-world behavior after #44 merged minutes ago.
Verified against DEV-249 (smoke test for the parent voice-tuning feature, exempt from a fresh issue per the team's established pattern).
Yours — Pepper

Summary
Adds a clause to the Naming legend clarifying that formal approves and request-changes are authored by the Pepper PR Review GitHub App — i.e. the reviewer name shown on the PR, not the workflow bot account. Operators occasionally ask "whose name is this?" when they see review activity; the answer was buried in the secrets table where it explains why the App exists, but never surfaced as a user-visible identity fact.
Why this PR exists
This is the smoke test for DEV-249 (Miss Pepper voice tuning). The voice-tuning PR (#44) merged into v1 minutes ago. This minor-but-real diff exercises the new prompt against a production-pinned consumer to verify real-world behavior — Pepper reviewing a doc-only README clarification under the new voice.
Refs DEV-249.
