v1.6.1: Cost Estimation Telemetry, Fork PR Security & Resilient Error Handling
🌟 What's New in v1.6.1
💰 Automated Cost Estimation & Pricing Telemetry
- Dollar Cost Reporting: Automatically calculates and reports estimated review costs directly in the tokenomics summary table based on official published rates, cached input discounts, and time-boxed promotional pricing (#33 by @SaschaHeyer).
- Decoupled Pricing Module: Clean
pricing.pyarchitecture supporting custom token rates via environment variables (GEMINI_RATE_INPUT,GEMINI_RATE_OUTPUT) orgemini-review.toml. - Accurate Input Billing: Properly bills prior PR comment history tokens at full input rates rather than silently dropping them.
- Gemini 3.7 Flash Cache Read Pricing: Introduces support for Gemini 3.7 Flash cache read pricing multipliers (
DEFAULT_CACHE_READ_MULTIPLIER = 0.1).
🛡️ Fork PR Workflow Security & Slash Command Routing
- Skipping Fork PR Failures: Restricts automatic
pull_requestworkflow triggers to internal repository branches, cleanly skipping fork PRs where repository secrets are inaccessible by GitHub design (#34). - Slash Command Execution (
/gemini-review): Repository maintainers can securely trigger reviews on external fork PRs by commenting/gemini-review, ensuring safe execution with full access toGEMINI_API_KEY. - PR Template: Added
.github/pull_request_template.mdwith contributor checklists and maintainer slash-command guidance. - Contribution Guide: Updated
CONTRIBUTING.mdwith comprehensive workflow lifecycle guidance and linking to exemplar PRs.
⚡ Resilient Error Handling & Visible Failure Signals
- No More Silent Drops:
post_reviewnow verifies if review comments were accepted by GitHub API. If posting fails completely, it raises aRuntimeErrorand sets the commit status tofailure, alerting maintainers immediately in CI.
