ci(review): make a review exist in the free draft phase, and a verdict a gate can read - #623
Conversation
CLOUD-847 `land` readies and starts CI in one event, so a code review can only arrive after the minutes are committed — and the free draft phase is exactly when no review can happen
Why The lifecycle spends CI minutes before any code review exists, and the two windows are disjoint by construction rather than by accident.
Adding one beside them would not help, because of if [ "$(graded_runs "$sha")" = "0" ] &&
[ "$(gh pr view "$pr" --json isDraft --jq .isDraft 2>/dev/null)" = "true" ]; then
gh pr ready "$pr" >/dev/null 2>&1 ||
die "could not mark #$pr ready for review, so CI would never start."
Measured on #620, 2026-08-21:
Twenty minutes of matrix committed before the review existed. On #617 it was worse: CodeRabbit posted "Review skipped — Draft detected", Whether a PR gets reviewed is currently a timing accident of how fast the ready-to-merge lap runs. The draft phase is the free phase AND the unreviewable phase, and they are the same phase. AGENTS.md sizes drafts as "iterate at zero CI cost" — correct, and exactly the window in which CodeRabbit refuses to look. What the Major finding on #620 was, to show this is not hypothetical: Minimal capability CodeRabbit documents the escape in the very message it posts on a draft:
So the order should be: Per non-negotiable rule 2 this ships as a runnable gate, not prose: a That Open a draft, post Refinement — Ready

Arm A is in: `@coderabbitai review` on a draft returned a review in 193s (requested 17:52:03, submitted 17:55:17 on f514797) with CI and commit-lint `skipped` throughout. So a free review window exists. That says nothing about this line, and #623's own review is why: `drafts` governs the automatic path, while the comment triggers independently of it. Arm B posts no comment — it flips the flag and reads whether the push's own `synchronize` reviews a still-draft PR. `@coderabbitai configuration` settles that the flag is even readable from here: `drafts` reports `Source: Repository YAML (base)` at head f514797, so the file under review is the one in force. Refs: CLOUD-847
Arm B answered negatively and usefully: `drafts: true` on the feature branch did not move the skip decision — #623 pushed 9cebd12 and got "Review skipped: draft pull request" 11s later, while `@coderabbitai configuration` read that same file at review time. The auto-review gate reads the base branch, so that line only bites once it is on main. The reading that reshapes CLOUD-847 is the other one: CodeRabbit posts a commit status on a DRAFT head (`f514797`: `CodeRabbit success — Review completed`, 17:55:19, draft=true). That is an object a gate can decide over, in the free phase, with no matrix bought. But `fail_commit_status` defaults to false, so that status was `success` for a review carrying two Major findings and `success` for a review that never happened. This commit flips it, raises the pause that would silence review mid-iteration, and turns off the narration and the linters our own gates already run — the review should compete with nothing for the reader's attention, because the reader is usually an agent that needs a verdict.

CLOUD-847 proposes a `review-check` gate that refuses to ready a PR whose head carries no review — but the escape it rests on has never been observed working here. `land` readies and pushes in one event (mise-tasks/land:1499), so `ready_for_review` is simultaneously what makes CodeRabbit look and what starts the matrix: a review cannot exist before the spend. This is the measurement, not the fix. Arm A is the documented default made explicit; arm B flips the one line. Nothing is built until the reading is on the row. Refs: CLOUD-847
Arm A is in: `@coderabbitai review` on a draft returned a review in 193s (requested 17:52:03, submitted 17:55:17 on f514797) with CI and commit-lint `skipped` throughout. So a free review window exists. That says nothing about this line, and #623's own review is why: `drafts` governs the automatic path, while the comment triggers independently of it. Arm B posts no comment — it flips the flag and reads whether the push's own `synchronize` reviews a still-draft PR. `@coderabbitai configuration` settles that the flag is even readable from here: `drafts` reports `Source: Repository YAML (base)` at head f514797, so the file under review is the one in force. Refs: CLOUD-847
Arm B answered negatively and usefully: `drafts: true` on the feature branch did not move the skip decision — #623 pushed 9cebd12 and got "Review skipped: draft pull request" 11s later, while `@coderabbitai configuration` read that same file at review time. The auto-review gate reads the base branch, so that line only bites once it is on main. The reading that reshapes CLOUD-847 is the other one: CodeRabbit posts a commit status on a DRAFT head (`f514797`: `CodeRabbit success — Review completed`, 17:55:19, draft=true). That is an object a gate can decide over, in the free phase, with no matrix bought. But `fail_commit_status` defaults to false, so that status was `success` for a review carrying two Major findings and `success` for a review that never happened. This commit flips it, raises the pause that would silence review mid-iteration, and turns off the narration and the linters our own gates already run — the review should compete with nothing for the reader's attention, because the reader is usually an agent that needs a verdict. Refs: CLOUD-847
Arm C measured the claim the previous commit made, and refuted it. At head c2778af, with `fail_commit_status: true` sourced from this file, a review posting "Actionable comments posted: 1" set `CodeRabbit = success — Review completed` two seconds later. The reference explains it rather than excusing it: `fail_commit_status` fails on review ERRORS, and `commit_status` mirrors review PROGRESS. Neither can express "this head has findings", so a gate reading that status would pass hardest on the PR that needs stopping. `request_changes_workflow` is the lever that produces a verdict: findings arrive as CHANGES_REQUESTED, which GitHub exposes as `reviewDecision` — one field, gate-readable, and the same one branch protection requires. Refs: CLOUD-847
Both are correct, and the Major one is the same fact the reference states: `commit_status` "is only used when review_progress is disabled", and `review_progress` defaults to true — so the line changed nothing. It is dropped rather than reworded: an inert second status surface beside `reviewDecision` is exactly what a reader would mistake for the verdict. The Minor one is a comment that read as though it described the configured 50 when it described the default 5. Arm E is what makes this the right shape: `@coderabbitai full review` on the draft produced `reviewDecision = CHANGES_REQUESTED` at 18:37:29 on 49b5171 — a verdict, in the free phase, in a GitHub-native field. Refs: CLOUD-847
The second finding is a gap this file created. `mise run ci` covers scanning, and every job in it is `if: draft == false` — so turning CodeRabbit's gitleaks off left the draft phase, the phase CLOUD-847 is trying to make the working phase, with no secret scanning at all. It stays on: a leaked secret is leaked at push time, which makes it the one class where paying for a duplicate is right. The first is wording: CHANGES_REQUESTED is submitted alongside the finding comments, not instead of them. Also recorded here because it decides the gate's predicate: arm F pushed fixes for both earlier findings, forced a re-review, and the head went 2 -> 4 unresolved without ever reaching APPROVED. A gate keyed on APPROVED would hand `land` to a reviewer that may never give it. Refs: CLOUD-847

Closes CLOUD-847.
What this lands
.coderabbit.yaml, so that the draft phase — the free phase, since every job inci.ymlisif: draft == false— stops being the one phase nothing reviews, andso that a review's findings reach a field a gate can decide over.
Every key is a measured decision, not a default worth overriding:
request_changes_workflow: true— findings arrive as a formalCHANGES_REQUESTEDreview alongside the comments, so
reviewDecisioncarries an answer.auto_review.drafts: true— review the free phase.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits: 50— the default of five reviewedcommits is about a morning of draft iteration, after which auto-review goes quiet.
gitleakskept on,because
mise run ciisif: draft == falseand switching it off would leave thedraft phase with no secret scanning at all.

The prediction this carries
Arm B is unresolved from a branch. Once this is on
main, a draft's ownsynchronizeeither reviews it or does not — which distinguishes event-time configresolution from a default-branch requirement. That reading gets recorded on
CLOUD-847 after the landing.
