Add local-strict-review skill and wire it into the pre-PR flow - #1065
Merged
Conversation
Runs one read-only, adversarial review pass against a branch's current diff against its merge-base, full file context included, on the strongest model tier reachable, before a unit of work is committed toward a pull request or claimed done. Reuses code-review's Review the Change criteria rather than restating them. Wires it into the three moments it exists to cover: pr-review-conduct's Expected review loop (before the first push and before any fix push), drive-pr's Drive Loop and finding disposition, and agent-conduct's Before Claiming Done trigger for PR-bound work. Fixes#1056, Fixes#1057, Fixes#1059

explicit develop target, and pass develop at all six call sites:

and .github/skills/drive-pr/SKILL.md lines 58-59 and 105-106. Ensure each
invocation reviews the full feature-to-develop diff rather than relying on @{u}.

…dings
CodeRabbit and Qodo independently found that anchoring on @{u} breaks
after the first push: git push -u resets a branch's own upstream
tracking ref to itself, so a later run diffs the branch against its
own last-pushed tip instead of develop, silently narrowing coverage
to the latest push instead of the full accumulated diff. Anchor on
origin/develop explicitly instead (fetched fresh first), per
repo-worktree's own base-branch rule, with origin/main named as the
documented exception for a main-based branch.
Also: enumerate and read untracked files explicitly, since git diff
never reports a path git add has not touched (Qodo); allow narrowly
scoped reads into an unchanged caller or consumer when a finding's
proof depends on it, instead of a blanket path ceiling that
contradicted the imported code-review criteria (Qodo); stop
restating AGENTS.md's model-tier rule text and point at it instead
(Qodo); reconcile the trigger-timing wording between the frontmatter
and When to Run It, and fix a garbled rationale sentence (CodeRabbit).There was a problem hiding this comment.

CodeRabbit found that the skill documented main as a valid target but every command hard-coded origin/develop, so a main-based branch would review from the wrong merge-base. Resolve <target> once and reuse it in the fetch and both merge-base commands instead of a literal develop alongside the documented main exception. Also scope AGENTS.md's local-strict-review paragraph to PR-bound work explicitly, matching the skill's own trigger and agent-conduct's wiring, rather than reading as any claimed-done work.

CodeRabbit: git fetch origin <target> had no success guard before the merge-base and diff commands ran, so a failed fetch could leave an existing local origin/<target> ref in place and the review would silently proceed against stale target data. State explicitly that a failed fetch stops the pass rather than falling through.

…nly findings (#1067) Closes#1066. Closes#1058. ## #1066 - review_on_head=NO misread as "no review covers this head" `review_on_head` in `pr_review.py`'s digest names Copilot's own coverage specifically (the reviewer this script requests and waits for), never "no review of any kind covers this head". A tracked other reviewer (CodeRabbit, Qodo) can carry the exact head commit under `other_reviewed`, with an empty review body and no new threads, its own ordinary "reviewed, nothing to flag" shape, not a missing review. That distinction existed in the code already but was easy to misread from the digest line alone. Clarified in `pr_review.py`'s own docstring and in `pr-review-conduct`'s Merge Gate (item 2). ## #1058 - CodeRabbit/Qodo findings that reach no thread Gives `pr_review.py` the equivalent of Copilot's suppressed-comments handling for the two other trialed reviewers: - **CodeRabbit's "outside diff range" findings** are collapsed into the review body rather than raised as an inline review comment, so they open no `reviewThreads` entry either. Read via a generalized `marker_blocks` helper (shared with the existing `suppressed_blocks`), surfaced as `cr_outside_diff=N (on_head=X earlier=Y)` in the digest and as detail lines. - **Qodo's numbered findings** live entirely in its "Code Review by Qodo" PR-level comment; its formal review carries an empty body on every round observed. Read and filtered by Qodo's own `Resolved`/`Dismissed` self-tracked badge, surfaced as `qodo_open=N` (a fast pre-triage signal per the runbook, not a substitute for reading the finding). `pr-review-conduct`'s Merge Gate (item 3) now requires triaging both the same way it already requires for Copilot's suppressed findings. ## Review history on this branch The first commit implemented the above. Before opening this PR, `local-strict-review` (the new skill from #1065/#1056) ran an adversarial pass against the full branch diff and found six real issues, all fixed in the second commit: a multi-finding CodeRabbit section silently rendering only its first finding despite the count reporting the true total, blockquote-stripping corrupting quoted shell/code content in the rendered output, an unanchored `QODO_BADGE` regex misreading a finding titled about this script's own `isResolved` identifier as self-resolved, missing window-blind handling for `qodo_open`, hardcoded login literals duplicating `OTHER_REVIEWERS`, and one vacuous test assertion. Regression tests cover each. All local gates pass: `ruff check`/`format`, `mypy`, the full `scripts/tests` suite (873 tests), `prose_lint.py --diff`, `repo_gate.py --check eol`/`eol-coverage`, `build_dist.py --check`. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Expanded merge review coverage to include CodeRabbit and Qodo advisory reviews. * Recognizes qualifying reviews for the current change, including reviews with no findings. * Detects findings in outside-diff comments and comment-only reviews. * Verifies resolved or dismissed findings before allowing merges. * Review summaries now report findings, truncated reviews, and unknown review windows more clearly. * **Tests** * Added coverage for nested review content, multiple findings, reviewer-specific results, and resolved statuses. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

Summary
Adds a new fleet skill,
local-strict-review: one read-only, adversarial review pass against a branch's current diff against its merge-base, full file context included, on the strongest model tier reachable, before a unit of work is committed toward a pull request or claimed done. It reusescode-review's "Review the Change" criteria rather than restating them, and owns only this local, pre-PR moment.Wires it into the three moments it exists to cover:
pr-review-conduct's Expected review loop, before the first push and before any fix push under outcome 1.drive-pr's Drive Loop step 2 and its finding-disposition mapping.agent-conduct's "Before Claiming Done" trigger, for PR-bound work specifically.AGENTS.md"Where the Rules Live" gets one new closing-paragraph sentence introducing the skill, per theskill-lifecycledoc-packaging pattern for new content.Regenerated

git merge-base @{u} HEAD, notgit diff --stagedas literally proposed in New fleet skill proposal: local-strict-review — adversarial pre-PR self-review on a stronger model #1056. Staging is consumed by the commit that must precede any push, so a staged-only anchor would be empty at every call site the wiring above invokes it from. The merge-base anchor also reviews the whole accumulated branch diff rather than only the latest increment, which is what the issue's own evidence section says incremental per-push review misses.AGENTS.md"Match the model tier to the judgment... state the tier in the delegation itself") rather than naming a literal model ID that would go stale.code-review's "Publish Every Finding" section (PR-comment posting, severity-labeled titles, afleet-reviewcoverage marker) is deliberately not imported: this pass has no PR to post to, so its own report contract replaces that section rather than extending it.pr-review-conduct's five outcomes; a finding raised and not fixed is never the agent's own call to leave, per outcome 3.Scope
Folds in #1057 (chain local checks before opening a PR / pushing a fix) and #1059 (
