+## Monorepos (routing manifest)
+
+A monorepo can route different subtrees to different reviewer rosters from a single
+infra-owned manifest. There is still **one workflow, one `ecr ci` process** per PR:
+it reads the changed files once, assigns each to exactly one scope, reviews each
+active scope over only its files, and renders one comment. Because it is a single
+writer in a single process there is no comment/check race and no locking.
+
+```

+
+- **Path glob dialect** — `**` crosses `/`, `*` matches within a segment. Keep a
+  `**/*` catch-all scope so no changed file goes unreviewed (`ecr doctor` flags a
+  coverage gap otherwise). Scopes are ordered and the **last** match wins, so put
+  broad scopes first and specific ones after (CODEOWNERS/Renovate discipline).
+- **Comment modes** — `single` posts one aggregated comment (a scope summary table
+  + a collapsed `<details>` per scope) under the existing marker; `per-scope` posts
+  one cleanly-namespaced comment per scope. A scope with zero matched files gets its
+  stale comment deleted.
+- **Scoped flags** — `ecr ci --scopes a,b` limits the fan-out; `ecr ci --comment
+  single|per-scope` overrides the manifest; `ecr review --scope <name>` runs one
+  scope locally; `ecr review`/`ecr ci --config-dir <dir>` (or `ECR_CONFIG_DIR`)
+  load config from an alternate directory; `ecr doctor --list-scopes` prints the
+  scope table. **`--config-dir` designates an alternate ROOT config dir: both
+  `config.jsonc` and `routing.jsonc` are read from it, so the root config and its
+  manifest always travel together. Scope `config` paths stay repo-root-relative —
+  the override swaps the root config/manifest against the *real* scope tree, it
+  does not relocate the scopes themselves.**
+- **Passes budget** — `defaults`-level `budget` bounds total review time:
+  `totalPassesMinutes` (default 32) is split across active scopes (which run
+  sequentially in one `ecr ci`), clamped up to `minScopeMinutes` (default 5) so a
+  single scope still gets a workable window. When enough scopes are active that the
+  floor would overshoot the total, `ecr ci` keeps the floor but warns, and `ecr
+  doctor` flags the worst case (`scopes × floor` vs total) — raise the workflow
+  `timeout-minutes` or trim scopes.
+- **Adoption is incremental** — with no `routing.jsonc`, behavior is exactly as
+  before (single config). Add the manifest with just a default scope → still one
+  comment, identical behavior. Land per-team scope dirs one at a time; everything
+  else keeps hitting the default scope.
+
+### Security
+
+- **auth is locked to the root.** `tokenEnv` (which env var becomes the model
+  credential) is honored in exactly one place: the root `config.jsonc` or
+  `routing.jsonc` `defaults.auth`. A scope config declaring `auth`/`breakGlass`
+  **fails to parse** (Zod-level rejection), and the CI guard step independently
+  sweeps every `.expo-code-review/config.jsonc`/`routing.jsonc` repo-wide and refuses
+  to run unless `tokenEnv` appears exactly once, in a root-owned file, equal to
+  `ECR_EXPECTED_TOKEN_ENV`. A routing manifest can never widen exposure — globs only
+  choose *which roster* reviews a file, never *which secret* is sent.
+- **enforceAgents can't be weakened.** Agents listed in `defaults.enforceAgents`
+  (e.g. `security`) are injected into every scope with `alwaysRun`, taken from the
+  root roster — a scope defining a same-id agent gets the root one, so a team can't
+  shadow the enforced reviewer with a weaker version on its own subtree.
+- **Config comes from the checked-out ref (documented tradeoff).** The scaffolded
+  auto workflow checks out the PR **merge ref**, so a PR *can* edit rosters, prompts,
+  and routing globs for its own advisory review — that only steers what the
+  comment-only reviewer says about that PR. What a PR can **never** do is touch
+  credentials: `auth` is locked by the scope-schema rejection, the CLI's runtime
+  `ECR_EXPECTED_TOKEN_ENV` check, and the guard step above, all three of which run
+  against whatever ref is checked out. A `/review`-command workflow that checks out
+  only the trusted base ref (see eas-cli's) closes the prompt-tampering vector too;
+  resolving config from the base ref on the auto path as well is on the
+  [roadmap](./ROADMAP.md).
+
+Ownership is enforced with CODEOWNERS: `/.expo-code-review/routing.jsonc @your-infra`
+(the single authoritative router) and `/server/www/.expo-code-review/ @your-www-team`
+(each team owns only its own scope dir). Rerouting globs is gated behind infra review.

+
+Every run reports what it spent and how much of it was served from the prompt
+cache, in three places:
+
+- **Job log (stderr)** — one line at the end of the run:
+  `Token usage — input …, output …, cache read …, cache write … (cost $…)`.
+- **GitHub Actions step summary** — a per-pass table (one row per agent, plus the
+  cross-cutting pass, coordinator, and verifier), the run's cache hit rate, and
+  the exact comment that was posted. The PR comment is updated in place on every
+  run, so the step summary is where past runs' comments remain readable.
+- **`.expo-code-review/.runs/reviews.jsonl`** — one JSON line per run (uploaded as
+  a CI artifact) with the same totals plus per-pass `agentTokens`, the raw
+  per-agent findings, coverage notes, and what the verifier dropped.
+
+**How the caching works.** Anthropic prompt caching is a *prefix match*: the
+provider caches the rendered prompt up to a marker, and any byte change anywhere
+in that prefix invalidates everything after it. The reviewer is laid out so the
+prefix is stable — the system prompt (`shared.md` + the agent's own `.md`) is
+byte-identical for every chunk an agent reviews, while the volatile parts (the
+diff, file lists, PR metadata) travel in the user message *after* the prefix and
+never touch it. The first call per agent **writes** the cache (`cache write`,
+billed ~1.25× the input price); every later chunk in the run **reads** it
+(`cache read`, ~0.1× the input price). Cache entries live ~5 minutes and are
+refreshed on use, which comfortably covers a run's concurrent calls.
+
+**Reading the numbers.** Hit rate = `cache read / (cache read + input)` — the
+share of prompt tokens served from cache instead of being reprocessed at full
+price. Multi-chunk reviews should show a high rate; single-chunk reviews mostly
+show writes (there is nothing to re-read within the run).
+
+**Keeping hits high:**
+
+- Keep `shared.md` and `agents/*.md` stable. Any edit writes a new prefix — one
+  extra cache write per agent on the next run, then it is warm again. Never put
+  varying text (dates, PR numbers) into prompt files.
+- Very short prompts may show `cache read 0`: prompts below the model's minimum
+  cacheable size (~1–4K tokens depending on the model) are silently not cached.
+  That is expected, not a bug.

+  `ecr doctor` flags the worst case (`scopes.length × floor` vs total). Template +
+  README document the knob.
+- **`--config-dir`/`ECR_CONFIG_DIR` fully composes with routing (shipped
+  2026-07-23)** — the escape hatch previously half-composed: `loadReviewConfig`/
+  `hasConfig` honored the override but `loadRoutingManifest` and scope loading did
+  not, so the root config came from the override dir while `routing.jsonc` and
+  scope configs came from the default tree. The override now designates an
+  alternate ROOT config dir: `loadRoutingManifest(root, { configDir })` reads
+  `routing.jsonc` from the same resolved dir as `config.jsonc` (`resolveConfigDir`).
+  Scope `config` paths stay repo-root-relative (an override must not invent a
+  parallel scope universe), and each scope's `.expo-code-review` dir name is
+  unchanged — only the ROOT artifacts follow the override. `ecr ci` gained a
+  `--config-dir` flag (mirroring `ecr review`) threaded through the legacy and
+  routed config loads; `doctor` prints an ℹ line naming the resolved root dir when
+  the override is active; `verify-config` notes the override (its repo-wide
+  security sweep is unchanged). With no override, resolution is byte-identical
+  (backcompat).
+- **Full workflow template set + Opus rosters + SHA-pinned actions (shipped
+  2026-07-23)** — `templates/` shipped only the auto (`pull_request`) `workflow.yml`,
+  so both production adopters (eas-cli, universe) hand-wrote the `/review` command
+  workflow, the `/dismiss` workflow, and the always-run run-log upload. Those are now
+  templates: `command.yml` (maintainer-gated `issue_comment` `/review`, base-ref-only
+  checkout, `ecr verify-config` guard, bash-array `--agents`/`--route`) and
+  `dismiss.yml` (`/dismiss`//`/undismiss`, sanitized id/reason parse, no model secret),
+  both scaffolded by `ecr init` as `expo-code-review-command.yml` /
+  `expo-code-review-dismiss.yml`. `workflow.yml` gained the `always()` "Upload review
+  run log" artifact step so the otherwise-ephemeral `.runs/reviews.jsonl` survives a CI
+  run. Every `uses:` across the three templates is now pinned by full commit SHA with a
+  version comment (checkout v7.0.1, setup-node v7.0.0, upload-artifact v7.0.1). And the
+  templates match the production rosters' model provisioning: `coordinator.md` and
+  `agents/security.md` now pin `anthropic/claude-opus-4-8` (were haiku / unpinned).
+- **Canonical `ecr verify-config` CI guard (shipped 2026-07-23)** — the pre-review
+  tokenEnv guard, previously duplicated across adopter workflows as brittle bash/awk
+  JSONC text-scraping at different robustness tiers, is now ONE command shipped by the
+  CLI. It walks every `.expo-code-review/config.jsonc|config.json` + `routing.jsonc`
+  in the checkout (plain recursive walk skipping node_modules/.git, so a staged
+  unreferenced config can't hide from git's index), parses each with the engine's REAL
+  comment-aware JSONC parser (never regex), and refuses (exit 1, `::error::` on stderr)
+  when `auth.tokenEnv`/`defaults.auth.tokenEnv` appears more than once, in a non-root
+  file, or (with `--expected`/`ECR_EXPECTED_TOKEN_ENV`) differs from the expected name
+  or is absent; when a non-root config declares `auth`/`breakGlass`/`commentTag`
+  (root-locked, checked WITHOUT trusting the manifest references the file); or when any
+  file fails to parse (fail-closed). `--json` emits `{ok, findings:[{file, problem}]}`.
+  The workflow template replaces its entire awk guard block with
+  `npx ... ecr verify-config` (setup-node moved before it; running the PUBLISHED
+  package via npx is safe pre-review since no PR code is built), and this repo's own
+  self-review workflow runs `verify-config` from source. Layer 2 to the runtime
+  `ECR_EXPECTED_TOKEN_ENV` lock (layer 1), so guard/loader drift still fails safe.
+- **Manual `/review` bypasses the trigger gate (shipped 2026-07-23)** — an explicit
+  maintainer invocation (`ecr ci --force`, or a `/review` comment command detected via
+  `GITHUB_EVENT_NAME=issue_comment`) now reviews even when the trigger policy would skip
+  (label trigger unmet, or the `ai-review:skip` label set), so the manual escape hatch
+  is no longer silently defeated (eyes reaction then nothing). It still calls
+  `shouldReview` and logs a stderr notice naming what it overrode. The bypass affects
+  ONLY the trigger gate (`shouldBypassTriggerGate`/`passesTriggerGate` in `ci.ts`,
+  applied identically in the legacy and routed paths) — break-glass and the auth lock
+  still apply.
+- **Monorepo routing manifest (shipped 2026-07-23)** — an optional infra-owned
+  `.expo-code-review/routing.jsonc` maps ordered path globs to scopes, each pointing
+  at its own `.expo-code-review/` config dir. One `ecr ci` process fans out
+  INTERNALLY: it reads the PR's changed files once, assigns each to exactly one scope
+  (last-match-wins), reviews each active scope over only its files, then renders ONE
+  comment (aggregated `single` by default, or `per-scope`). Single-writer/single-
+  process, so there's no comment/check race and one shared `gh` diff + link-context
+  across scopes (rate-limit hygiene). Security: `auth`/`tokenEnv` is locked to the
+  root (rejected at the Zod level in scope configs + the widened repo-wide CI guard
+  that also asserts `commentTag` uniqueness); `defaults.enforceAgents` inject a
+  non-overridable roster (e.g. `security`) into every scope; scope-namespaced
+  fingerprints keep cross-scope dismissals from colliding, and the default scope
+  keeps the root marker so existing dismissal state carries over. Backcompat is
+  free: no `routing.jsonc` ⇒ today's exact single-config behavior. New surface:
+  `ecr init --monorepo`/`--scope <dir>`, `ecr review --scope`/`--config-dir`
+  (+`ECR_CONFIG_DIR`), `ecr ci --scopes`/`--comment`, `ecr doctor --list-scopes`.
+  *Deferred:* per-scope GitHub check runs; auto-spilling an oversized aggregate
+  comment into per-scope comments (we truncate with a "+N more" note instead);
+  CLI-side `ai-review:scope:<name>` label parsing (the adopting repo's workflow maps
+  labels → `--scopes`, as it already does for `--agents`).
+- **Follow-up batch (2026-07-23, PRs #2–#7)** — first round of post-extraction
+  low-hanging-fruit hardening:
+  - **Transient-error retry with backoff (#3)** — a one-off 429/5xx/network error on
+    a pass is now retried with bounded backoff (2s→8s) instead of dropping the whole
+    pass; classified by `isTransientApiError`, which excludes `AgentTimeoutError`
+    (timeouts still abandon). Closes reliability/merge-boundary follow-up #3 below.
+  - **Fail-fast provider-auth check (#4)** — `checkProviderAuth` (shared by
+    `prepareAuth` + `doctor`) fails fast with one clear message before the run when
+    the configured provider has no credential, instead of surfacing as N failed
+    passes mid-run. Closes the "fail-fast provider-auth check" item under Model
+    selection below.
+  - **Auth failures collapse to one note (#5)** — a rejected credential (401/403)
+    hitting every pass now reports a single actionable coverage note (`isAuthError`)
+    instead of N generic failures. Closes the UX "auth-shaped errors → one message" item.
+  - **`--staged` + `--base`/`--head` rejected (#2)** — was silently ignored; now a
+    clear error. Closes the UX-minor `--staged`/`--base` warning item.
+  - **Usage totals surfaced to CI/terminal (#6)** — token/cache/cost totals are
+    printed as a one-line summary via progress, so prompt-cache reuse is visible in
+    CI (where `.runs/reviews.jsonl` is ephemeral). Closes the §4.1 follow-up.
+  - **Config-driven trigger policy + skip fix (#7)** — new `review.trigger`
+    (`"all"` default | `"label"`) in `config.jsonc`; `ecr ci` self-gates via
+    `shouldReview()`, honoring the write-gated `ai-review:skip` label. Fixed the
+    workflow `if:` gate: the old `contains(join(labels), 'ai-review')` matched
+    `ai-review:skip` as a substring (skip didn't skip) — now an exact array-form
+    match, as an optional coarse opt-out on top of the config policy. Template +
