Next review available in: 22 minutes You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository. How can I continue?After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews. How do review limits work?CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability. For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window. Please refer docs for additional details.

Pull request overview
This PR delivers Phase 1 critical fixes for the release-process redesign: it tightens release trigger authorisation, documents a develop-first stacked PR release flow, removes broken workflow badges, and introduces an automated post-release sync back to develop.
Changes:
- Enforced authorisation gating for release triggers and expanded telemetry to include failure reasons.
- Added post-release sync automation (
main → develop) and documented the develop-first stacked PR flow across key docs. - Replaced broken workflow badges in branching strategy docs with a text-based status line, and fixed several report cross-links.

- The sync branch is created from
origin/mainand then mergesorigin/maininto itself, which is a no-op and does not validate the actualmain → developmerge (or surface conflicts early). Create the sync branch fromorigin/developbefore mergingorigin/main.
// Create new sync branch from main
execSync(
`git checkout -b ${syncBranch} origin/main`,
{ encoding: "utf8" },
);
