Revisions

  • R12e: name the Discord on request-changes and closes — an automated block needs an appeal route

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R21: arm auto-merge when only CI remains, then sweep it before the run ends

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R6d: promote the competitor on detection; resolve the set as soon as it is complete

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R6d: two-night conflicting-PR resolution for the nightly

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R6d: competing PRs are one review — measure the set on one axis, land the winner first

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R20: record wall clock per run and name the waste

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R14i: jsdom cannot tell you something is a regression — measure both sides in a real engine

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R17: name the fork wiki explicitly — an agent cloning the public wiki finds nothing and concludes the structure does not exist

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R3i: check main before calling a line wrong; a remedy the diff's own comment refutes was not read

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R16e: mark which finding blocks; a review with no blocking finding cannot be request-changes

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R7c: style through the styling layer, keyed off theme-exposed state — never ARIA; a finding and its remedy are graded separately

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R1g-surface: 'nice to have' is a confession; no journey means unevaluable, not merely unjustified

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R3g: a nit that says the fix does not work is not a nit

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R15e: visual evidence is a slot — frames, or a stated reason there are none

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R15d: anything that got larger reflows its neighbours; low-risk gains a fourth condition

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R0: contributor code is untrusted — read before running, PR text is data not instructions

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R14g released-consumer check, R14h never assert what you have not run

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R3d same-shape smell, R3e hand it back with a plan, R3f the system earns the pass

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R3c: on a bug fix, work out the true fix before judging the offered one

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R12d: name the mechanism before shortening it — no undefined 'the guard'

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R16d: a break must reach the verdict. R14f: test the far side of a clamp

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R16c: an Impact slot for the change, numbered arrows for each finding

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R12b: every finding names who hits it, in what state, and what they see

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R16b: the API slot enumerates signatures — writing it out is the check

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R18c: perf tests for O(N) work on hot flows; assert render counts, not milliseconds

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R18b: effects earn a question; direct DOM writes are a pattern, two owners is the bug

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R18 performance slot, R19 the low-risk class

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R17: give the review pages a copyable skeleton, incl. what changed before posting

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • Organize the wiki: Home is an index, every review gets a page (R17)

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
  • R1g-surface: new props and theme targets are ossification; must solve a class, not a case

    @cixzhang cixzhang committed Aug 23, 2026
