feat: strip hidden text from PR titles and bodies (#103)

* feat: strip hidden text from PR titles and bodies

Remove HTML comments, markdown comments, and zero-width or bidi characters before the model reads PR text, because GitHub does not show them to people. Tell the coordinator when the text hid something, but not for comments that the repository's PR template also has.

* fix: strip Unicode tag characters and other invisible format characters

Tag characters spell invisible ASCII, a known carrier for hidden prompts. The old list covered only zero-width and bidi characters.

* style: format the tag character test

* fix: keep the joiners, soft hyphens and flag tags that normal text needs

Stripping every Cf character counted emoji, Persian words and the England flag
as hidden text, so the coordinator would say a normal PR body hid content.

+# Plan: inline PR comments for in-diff findings (rev 2, post adversarial review)
+
+## Goal
+
+Findings anchored to a line in the PR diff land as inline review comments on
+that line. The main issue comment does not list an inlined finding again: it
+shows each inlined finding's id, linked to its thread, and its location, in one
+row per severity. The main comment stays the single durable state store (embedded state, dismissals,
+feedback records, pins, `/dismiss` target). Inline comments are a derived
+presentation layer, converged on every run.
+
+## Non-goals (v1)
+
+- No formal `POST /pulls/{n}/reviews` review event: a batched review is atomic
+  (one bad anchor 422s the whole post) and cannot be upserted across runs.
+  Individual review comments isolate failures and PATCH in place.
+- No multi-line comments; single `line` + `side: "RIGHT"` only.
+- No GraphQL thread resolution, and no detection of author-resolved threads.
+  Accepted risk: the PR author can resolve (collapse) an inline thread, and the
+  main comment then shows only its id; the thread stays on the PR and anyone can
+  expand it. Outdated threads (`line: null`) are detected and listed in full.
+- `ecr feedback` retroactive crawl keeps reading issue comments only. The
+  review-comments fetch in `replyComments` is gated on the reporter having an
+  ENABLED `inline` option, so the crawl (which passes none) gains no fetches.
+- Scopes removed from the routing manifest strand their comments — same
+  pre-existing behavior as their main comments.
+- Break-glass (`postSkipNote`) leaves inline threads untouched even though it
+  overwrites the embedded state. Accepted, documented.
+
+## Config
+
+Root-only key in `ReviewConfigSchema`, locked out of scope configs with
+`z.never` like `feedback`:
+
+```jsonc
+inline: {
+  enabled: false,        // ship dark
+  maxComments: 20        // cap per posted comment's reporter (per PR in single/
+                         // legacy mode; per scope in per-scope mode — documented)
+}
+```
+
+Wired into `LoadedConfig`, `load.ts` defaults, all five reporter construction
+sites, and `reviewPostingConfigFingerprint` (posting behavior changes with it,
+so a saved deferred review must not post under a different inline policy).
+Turning it OFF later leaves existing threads up (documented; `clear()` still
+sweeps them on mode switches, and a manual cleanup is possible).
+
+## Inline comment identity
+
+Marker, at byte 0 of the body, parsed with an ANCHORED regex and a hex-only
+charset:
+
+```
+<!-- <tag>:inline:fp=<[a-f0-9]{6,64}> -->
+```
+
+- Identity = author (`user.login === ownLogin`) + anchored marker; marker alone
+  is never identity (selectOwnComments model). ownLogin unresolvable ⇒ nothing
+  is ours AND no creates either (fail closed, no duplicate storms).
+- Byte-0 anchoring also narrows the shared `github-actions[bot]` confused-deputy
+  risk: an echo-bot that prefixes any content fails the anchor.
+- fp is the id the owning main comment renders (plain, or scope-namespaced for
+  the aggregate). Substring safety vs `<!-- tag -->` / `<!-- tag:scope -->`
+  holds in both directions (closing ` -->` differs), incl. a scope named
+  `inline`.
+
+## Inline comment body
+
+Marker line, then the finding rendered in full (severity, title, category,
+`id:<fp>` token, rationale, sources, suggestion — every model-written field
+through `stripStateMarkers`), then a footer: "Reply here to respond; write
+`id:<fp>` in your reply (unquoted) to formally answer it."
+
+**Self-reply backstop (was blocker):** the body carries an unquoted `id:` token,
+and today's `OWN_COMMENT_RE` (`:state=|:fingerprints=`) would NOT exclude it if
+identity/tag filters ever miss (bot-login fallback, commentTag rename, second
+posting identity). Fixes, all three:
+- `responses.ts` gains a tag-independent backstop: a body whose UNQUOTED lines
+  contain `:inline:fp=` is never treated as a reply (quoted lines excluded so a
+  GitHub "Quote reply" of our inline comment — which copies the marker behind
+  `> ` — still counts as a genuine reply).
+- `replyComments` applies the same unquoted-line rule for the tag-specific
+  marker.
+- Test: an inline body is never matched as a reply even with `ownLogin: null`
+  and a foreign tag; a quote-reply containing the quoted marker IS matched.
+
+## Reporter mechanics
+
+New option `inline?: LoadedConfig["inline"]`.
+
+### Fetch layer
+
+`fetchAllReviewComments()`: paginated GET `repos/{repo}/pulls/{n}/comments`
+(fields: id, body, path, line, user.login, html_url, in_reply_to_id,
+author_association). Cached in a MODULE-LEVEL map keyed
+`prNumber\nrepo\ncwd` (the prAuthorByPr pattern) with the same 30s TTL and
+invalidate-on-mutation — routed single-mode runs call `clear()` on a fresh
+reporter per scope, and per-instance caching would multiply listings. Note:
+this endpoint DOES honor sort/direction (unlike issue comments) — do not copy
+that rationale comment; a full scan is still needed.
+
+### Sync
+
+`syncInline(targets, link, opts: { teardown: boolean })` runs inside
+`report()` / `reportAggregate()` before rendering; returns `Map<fp, url>`.
+
+Targets = ACTIVE findings only (not dismissed, not reply-cleared, not
+requalified) with `line != null` and `diffLines.get(file).has(line)`.
+
+**Cap (sticky, was churn bug):** order candidates by severity rank then fp
+(deterministic); fill slots preferring fps that ALREADY have a live inline
+comment, then admit new ones. A live thread is never evicted to create a new
+one.
+
+**Teardown gating (was blocker):** stubs/deletes run ONLY when
+`opts.teardown` is true, which callers set as:
+- `report()`: `!review.couldNotComplete`.
+- `reportAggregate()`: caller-passed flag — ci.ts passes
+  `!scopesFilter && results.every(r => !r.review.couldNotComplete)`. A partial
+  `--scopes` run or any failed scope makes the run additive-only (creates +
+  patches, no stubs/deletes), because carried/truncated/failed state cannot
+  prove a finding is gone. (`scopedFingerprint` is opaque hex — a per-scope
+  stale set cannot be derived from fps, so the gate is all-or-nothing.)
+- `applyDismissal`: never computes a stale set. Additive-only: stub threads of
+  the explicitly dismissed fps; on `/undismiss`, re-patch the full body if the
+  finding is present in state (skip if truncated away).
+- Prereq fix: both failure literals (`ci.ts` legacy catch and
+  `failureReview()`) gain `couldNotComplete: true` — today they post
+  empty-findings reviews WITHOUT the flag and would tear everything down. Side
+  effects checked: the decision label becomes the accurate "No review — every
+  pass failed", and caching is unaffected (failures already never carry
+  inputHash).
+
+**Stub text (was blocker):** neutral — "This finding is no longer tracked
+inline — see the main review comment for current status." Never
+"resolved/dismissed": a capped-out or drifted finding is still active.
+
+**Mutations** (sequential, never parallel):
+- create: POST with body/commit_id=headSha/path/line/side. Creates require
+  headSha AND a live-head check: one `gh pr view --json headRefOid` per sync
+  (only when creates exist); mismatch ⇒ skip creates, log (a mid-review push
+  means our diff no longer matches the head; a stale commit_id can silently
+  anchor to wrong code, and a force-push 422s every create).
+- patch: only when the normalized body differs (`\r\n` → `\n`) — no PATCH-per-
+  finding-per-run forever.
+- stale (teardown only): thread has replies ⇒ PATCH to the neutral stub
+  (marker kept, so a returning finding revives the thread); no replies ⇒
+  DELETE. Reply detection: any listed comment with `in_reply_to_id` == our id
+  (same snapshot; the reply-between-list-and-delete race is accepted, noted in
+  tests).
+- duplicates (crash window): keep newest per fp, older are stale.
+- 422 on create ⇒ log once + skip that finding (renders full-form). 403/429
+  (secondary rate limit) ⇒ log + abort ALL remaining mutations this run.
+- Audit (was silent): stderr one-liner + step-summary line:
+  `inline sync: N created, N patched, N stubbed, N deleted, N failed`.
+
+Every mutation individually try/caught; the inline layer never blocks the main
+comment. Listing failure ⇒ empty map, no mutations.
+
+### clear()
+
+Extends to inline comments under this reporter's tag, gated on marker+author
+only (NOT on `enabled`, so mode switches clean up after a disable): replied
+threads are STUBBED, bare ones deleted — never delete a thread humans wrote in
+(ci.ts calls clear() on mode switches and scope reconciliation). This also
+covers the fp-namespace flip on per-scope↔single switches, symmetric with how
+main comments are cleared today.
+
+### Main-comment id rows
+
+- `LinkContext.inlineUrls?: Map<string, string>`. NEVER mutate the shared
+  routed-flow `link` object — render with a copy `{ ...link, inlineUrls }`.
+- `renderSeveritySections` leaves every finding with an inline URL out of the
+  severity lists. Under `💬 **Inline comments on the diff (n)**` it adds one row
+  per severity with each finding's `id:` linked to its thread, plus a reply link
+  when an author answered. Severity headings count only the findings listed under
+  them. Missing URL ⇒ full form (tested). See LLP 0008 "Inline Threads".
+- Embedded state unchanged.
+
+### Inline replies → feedback
+
+- `replyComments()` maps review comments too — ONLY when
+  `options.inline?.enabled` (keeps `ecr feedback` crawl and non-inline repos at
+  zero extra fetches). Excludes own login; excludes bodies whose unquoted lines
+  carry our markers.
+- **Id namespace (was collision risk):** review-comment-sourced ReplyComments
+  get `id = -reviewCommentId`. Negative ids flow into FeedbackRecord.commentId
+  (schema unchanged — number stays a number) and are consistent across runs, so
+  mergeFeedback's `commentId` equality and buildAdjudicationItems' body lookup
+  stay collision-free vs the positive issue-comment space.
+- `applyPins` gains a cross-stream guard: a pin is lifted only by a maintainer
+  record whose commentId is newer AND in the SAME stream (same sign). A
+  different-stream comparison is undecidable ordering ⇒ keep the pin (fail
+  closed).
+- `ReplyComment.threadFp?: string`: set when the reply's `in_reply_to_id`
+  resolves to OUR (author+anchored-marker) top-level inline comment's fp.
+  `matchReplies` treats a known threadFp as a match in EVERY `match` mode
+  (structural signal, not text matching; documented + tested). `citedId` is
+  unchanged: clearing still requires the replier's own unquoted `id:` token.
+- Newest-wins across streams: negative ids lose to positive ones by raw
+  comparison; acceptable because only the newest record per fp matters and a
+  same-fp cross-stream tie is rare; the applyPins guard removes the dangerous
+  consequence.
+
+## Files touched
+
+- `src/config/schema.ts`, `src/config/load.ts` — `inline` key + lock + defaults.
+- `src/core/deferred-review.ts` — fingerprint includes `inline`.
+- `src/reporters/github.ts` — review-comments fetch (shared cache), syncInline
+  + pure exported planner, replyComments extension, clear(), applyDismissal
+  additive sync.
+- `src/core/render.ts` — inline marker helpers (anchored parse), inline body
+  renderer, `LinkContext.inlineUrls`, main-comment id rows.
+- `src/core/responses.ts` — threadFp, unquoted-marker backstop.
+- `src/core/schema.ts` — applyPins same-stream guard.
+- `src/commands/ci.ts` — wire config, `couldNotComplete: true` on both failure
+  literals, aggregate teardown flag. `review.ts`, `post-review.ts`,
+  `dismiss.ts` — wire config.
+- Tests: planner (create/patch/stub/delete, sticky cap, dedupe, additive mode),
+  marker anchor/forgery, id rows + missing-URL fallback, backstop vs
+  quote-reply, threadFp in all match modes, applyPins stream guard,
+  couldNotComplete literals.
+- `templates/config.jsonc`, `README.md`.
+
+## Rollout
+
+Ship dark. Note in README: first enable on a large PR fires one notification
+per created inline comment (cap bounds it). Enable on this repo first, then
+expo/expo after one observed cycle.

The whole run's resource lifecycle — engine handles, auth material, cwd, and the read-root worktree — is released in a single `finally` (`review.ts:947-951`), so no partial-startup path leaks a server or a worktree.
+`runReview()` runs a fixed sequence: filter noise → apply each agent's `paths` → resolve the read root (the trust boundary) → start the engines → preflight that every model id resolves → chunk the diff → run agent×chunk passes plus one cross-cutting pass through a growable bounded queue → coordinate → verify → suppress → reconcile the summary → log. The whole run's resource lifecycle — engine handles, auth material, cwd, and the read-root worktree — is released in a single `finally` (`review.ts:947-951`), so no partial-startup path leaks a server or a worktree.
 
 Two ordering decisions inside that lifecycle are load-bearing and easy to break by "cleaning up":
 
 - **`prepareAuth()` runs before the chdir into the read-root worktree** [observed] (`review.ts:217-239`). Auth does not depend on the working directory, so doing it after materializing the read root but before `process.chdir` means an auth failure only has the worktree itself to release — it can never leave `process.cwd()` pointed at a worktree the process still has to clean up.
 - **OpenCode starts before Claude Code** when both engines are in use [observed] (`review.ts:249-277`). They live in two separate `try` blocks so each keeps its own precise error message, and the ordering means a Claude Code startup failure's error path can still call `opencodeHandle?.close()` on the already-started OpenCode server (`review.ts:270`).
 
-The engine map is built from the **selected** agent subset, not the full roster [observed] (`review.ts:200-214`, commit `93aaf30`): a run whose passes never touch Claude does not preflight — and so cannot fail on — a missing Claude CLI or token. An explicit `--agents` subset is known before startup; routing (`routeAgents()` in `src/core/router.ts`) needs a live engine handle, so it runs after startup and keeps the full roster. The trust policy for the read root itself (fatal in CI, soft fallback locally) lives in [LLP 0001](0001-trust-model.principles.md); `resolveReadRoot()` is the guard.
+The engine map is built from the **selected** agent subset, not the full roster [observed] (`review.ts:200-214`, commit `93aaf30`): a run whose passes never touch Claude does not preflight — and so cannot fail on — a missing Claude CLI or token. An explicit `--agents` subset and the `paths` filter are known before startup; routing (`routeAgents()` in `src/core/router.ts`) needs a live engine handle, so it runs after startup and keeps the roster the `paths` filter left (see [Agent `paths` Filter](#agent-paths-filter)). The trust policy for the read root itself (fatal in CI, soft fallback locally) lives in [LLP 0001](0001-trust-model.principles.md); `resolveReadRoot()` is the guard.
+
+## Agent `paths` Filter
+
+An agent's frontmatter `paths` limits it to the changes it covers (syntax and validation: [LLP 0006](0006-config-schema-loading-routing.explainer.md#agent-frontmatter-and-paths)). `selectAgentsByPaths()` in `src/core/agent-paths.ts` applies the globs to the reviewable files: after scope isolation and noise filtering, and before the read root or any engine exists [observed: `review.ts` calls it right after the noise early return]. That position gives three properties:
+
+- A skipped agent costs no model call. The engine map is built from the agents the filter kept, so a skipped agent's engine starts only when a fixed role still needs it: the cross-file and verifier passes use the first roster agent's model, and the coordinator uses its own [observed: `buildEngineMap` in `src/core/claude-code.ts`].
+- When no agent is left, `runReview` returns the way a noise-only diff does: a clean `approve` whose summary says no reviewer applies, with no coverage note and no `couldNotComplete`. Nothing failed; the configured agents do not cover these files.
+- In a routed monorepo each `runReview` call already sees only its scope's files (`includePaths`), so `paths` is matched against each scope's own files with no extra code.
+
+The filter runs **before** the router and `alwaysRun`. `routeAgents()` receives only the kept agents, so the router can neither pick a skipped agent nor fall back to one, and an `alwaysRun` agent (including one forced by `defaults.enforceAgents`) joins only when its `paths` match [observed: `pickRoutedAgents` in `src/core/router.ts`]. An explicit `--agents` list (or `/review <agents>`) bypasses the filter at both levels below, because the caller asked for those agents by name.
+
+On a chunked diff, `planAgentChunks()` also skips each chunk with no matching file. A chunk the agent does review is reviewed whole: files outside the globs (a `.changeset/*.md`, a shared type) can still matter to the change, so the agent gets the chunk's full diff, not only its matching files. Subdividing a timed-out chunk does not re-apply the filter to the halves, for the same reason: the timeout ladder keeps its "never simply dropped" contract unchanged. The cross-cutting pass covers the concerns of the agents that run.
+
+Both levels match each file's path and, for a rename, its old path too [observed: `changedPaths` in `src/core/agent-paths.ts`]. Moving a file out of an agent's globs changes what those globs cover, the way deleting it would, and a deletion already matches on its old path. Matching only the new path would let a move out of `packages/ios/` skip the iOS agent. Scope routing (`includePaths`) still assigns a renamed file by its new path only.
+
+**Skips are reported, never coverage notes.** Each skip goes to the job log (`Skipping …` progress lines), the Actions step summary (an "agents skipped by `paths`" table), and the run log (`pathsSkipped`) [observed: `formatSkippedAgents`, `formatSkippedParts`, `renderPathsSkipsMarkdown`]. A skip is configured scope, like noise filtering, not unreviewed work. Keeping it out of `incomplete` is also load-bearing for the result cache: `reviewCanBeReused` refuses any review with a non-empty `incomplete` ([LLP 0005](0005-verification-fingerprints-rendering.explainer.md#review-result-cache)), so a skip reported as a coverage note would turn every re-run of an unchanged PR into a cache miss. The skip decision is a pure function of the scoped files, the noise config, and each agent's `paths`, and the cache key hashes all three, so a cache hit can never carry a stale skip.
+
+The same cache argument fixes the cross-file pass's **configured** model to the first ROSTER agent's (what `buildOpencodeConfig` and `buildEngineMap` actually give that pass), not the first selected agent's. Comparing against the selected one reported a false model substitution, and with it a coverage note, whenever `paths`, `--agents`, or routing removed the first roster agent and the next one had a different model [observed: `taskModel` in `review.ts`].

 `writeRunLog()` (`src/core/log.ts`) appends one JSON line per run — cost, tokens (run-wide and per bucket), findings, coverage notes, decision — so runs are auditable and cost/latency measurable later. The record deliberately excludes PR title and body text, keeping only `baseRef`/`headRef`, to avoid persisting secrets that might appear in author-controlled text [observed] (`log.ts:13-18`). Findings may quote changed source lines, but only content the review already publishes verbatim in the PR comment.
 
+Each successful reviewer pass may also return a bounded conclusion-only trace: up to three concrete checks and two unresolved questions, with each note capped at 240 characters. Trace parsing is deliberately fail-soft: malformed optional diagnostics are dropped while valid findings from the same response survive, so observability can never create a coverage gap. `runReview()` merges and de-duplicates valid notes per reviewer, sorts reviewer ids, caps both the stored roster and the complete decoded trace (6 KB), labels the result `unverified-model-diagnostics`, and attaches it to `CoordinatorOutput.reviewTrace` only after the decision pipeline finishes. `attachReviewTrace` strips any coordinator-authored value before attaching the engine-built trace; even a malformed injected coordinator value parses as absent rather than failing consolidation. The trace therefore never reaches coordination, verification, suppression, or decision logic. Because the GitHub comment already embeds the full coordinator output as durable state, downstream agents can recover the trace without adding visible review prose or storing raw transcripts and chain-of-thought. The same trace rides the run log for short-lived operational inspection [observed: `schema.ts` `ReviewerTraceNotesSchema`/`ReviewTraceSchema`/`ReviewerOutputSchema`; `review.ts` `mergeTraceNotes`/`buildReviewTrace`/`attachReviewTrace`; `render.ts` embeds the full review].
+
+A reviewer pass may also return a `summary`: one or two sentences on what it reviewed and concluded, for the human readers of the comment. The parser fails soft in the same way as the trace, flattens the text to one line, and cuts it at 280 characters. `runReview()` keeps up to two distinct pass summaries per agent, so a chunked agent reports each part; they are the first two in diff order, not in the order the passes finish, so the same run always keeps the same parts. The parts are keyed in a `Map`, so an agent id such as `constructor` cannot read an inherited property. `buildAgentSummaries` turns them into one row per roster agent: the agents that ran (each once, even an agent whose id collides with the cross-file pass's `cross-cutting`), in run order and with the cross-cutting pass last, then the agents that did not run, marked `paths` (the run-level `paths` filter skipped them) or `router` (the router did not select them). An agent that ran but returned no summary keeps its row without text. Over the 8 KB budget, the last rows lose their text but keep their place. `attachAgentSummaries` attaches the list to `CoordinatorOutput.agentSummaries` at the same point as the trace and for the same reason: the coordinator reads untrusted PR data, so it can never author the field. The summaries never reach coordination, verification, suppression, or the decision [observed: `schema.ts` `ReviewerOutputSchema`/`AgentSummarySchema`; `review.ts` `mergeAgentSummary`/`buildAgentSummaries`/`attachAgentSummaries`].
+
+A pass may also return `humanReview`, one sentence on why a person should review the change, parsed and cut like the summary. `runReview()` keeps the first reason per agent. `buildMentions` turns a reason into a mention only for an agent that ran and whose front matter has a `mention` list, and the people come from that list, never from the model. `attachMentions` attaches the result to `CoordinatorOutput.mentions` with the other engine-owned fields and strips any coordinator-authored value. A mention never affects the decision or the finding set [observed: `review.ts` `buildMentions`/`attachMentions`].
+
 Observability must never break a review, so both output sinks swallow their own errors: `safeLog` wraps `writeRunLog` and discards any write error [observed] (`review.ts:1269-1275`), and `appendStepSummary` is a no-op outside Actions and swallows append failures [observed] (`step-summary.ts:9-19`). A consequence worth stating: a missing or corrupt run-log entry is therefore **not** an error signal — the log's presence or absence proves nothing about whether the review succeeded.
 
 Finally, `publicFailureReason()` (`src/core/util.ts`) is the only failure text allowed into PR-facing comments [observed] (`util.ts:20-27`; used in `src/commands/ci.ts:176,365,575`). `run()` throws errors of the form `"Command failed: <cmd> <argv>\n<stderr>"`, which embed a subprocess's full command line, its stderr, and absolute runner paths — CI-internal detail of no use to a PR author and exactly what must not leak into an attacker-visible artifact. Those shapes collapse to a generic pointer at the workflow log; the tool's own argv/path-free messages pass through, since they are the actionable ones the fail-fast design means to surface. Every call site still writes the full reason to the job's stderr.

+`claude -p --output-format stream-json --verbose` subprocess fed the task on stdin.
+The JSONL stream makes tool activity observable while the pass runs instead of leaving
+only a periodic heartbeat until the final result. The incremental decoder emits only
+bounded lifecycle metadata and read-tool names with confined repo-relative targets;
+raw assistant text, tool results, grep patterns, and attempted host paths never reach
+the progress or error logs because model output is untrusted and may contain source
+secrets or terminal/log-injection payloads. If a stream ends without a final result,
+or its error result has no explicit message, parsing returns a fixed diagnostic rather
+than falling back to the raw JSONL transcript. The fixed diagnostic carries the child
+exit code and may derive an actionable, fixed category from stderr only when no stream
+was emitted (rejected flags, authentication, or launch failure); arbitrary stderr is
+never copied into logs, and only an explicit final-result error message reaches
+provider-error classification. Every task-specific progress line is tagged with the
+stable agent bucket by the review pipeline, so concurrent passes remain attributable
+[observed] `claude-code.ts` `claudeExitDiagnostic`/`runClaudePrompt`, `review.ts`

+are built to keep an untrusted PR (the review input) from turning that subprocess into
+code execution or credential exfiltration.
+
+Every production structured-output parser carries a draft-07 JSON Schema generated
+from the same Zod contract used at the local trust boundary. The Claude runtime passes
+that schema through `--json-schema`; Claude Code validates the final `StructuredOutput`
+tool call and re-prompts inside the original session when a required field or type is
+wrong. The validated `structured_output` object is then serialized through the local
+Zod parser again — provider validation improves reliability but never replaces local
+validation. If Claude exhausts its in-session structured-output retries (or claims
+success without returning `structured_output`), the runtime makes one clean-process
+attempt and accounts for both attempts; it never accepts unvalidated fallback text

+## Prior-Review Context
+
+A re-review used to start from nothing. Every pass ran stateless, so the reviewer
+could not tell a second push from a first look, and a finding a maintainer had
+already dismissed came back on the next run in slightly different words — near-
+identical repeats are caught by fingerprint suppression, a reworded re-raise is
+not.
+
+The state to fix that was already in hand. `ReviewState` round-trips the whole
+previous `CoordinatorOutput` — every finding with its file, line, severity and
+category — plus `dismissed`, `feedback` and `pins`, through the reviewer's own PR
+comment on every run [observed] (`src/core/render.ts:ReviewState`). It was
+decoded each run and consulted only afterward, for suppression and reply
+matching. `summarizePriorReview` reduces it to a bounded list, and
+`priorReviewSection` renders that as one fenced block for the reviewer and
+cross-cutting tasks [observed] (`src/core/prior-review.ts`,
+`src/core/prompts.ts:priorReviewSection`). Both CI paths supply it: the
+single-scope run reads the reviewer's comment once and reuses that read for the
+cache check, and a routed run resolves it per scope — from the scope's own comment,
+or, in `single` mode, from the aggregate's `scopes` entry paired with the root's
+dismissal records, keyed by the scope-namespaced fingerprint those records use
+[observed] (`src/commands/ci.ts` `scopePriorReview`).
+
+Carrying status is the part that earns the block. A maintainer's dismissal and an
+author's reply both happen *after* a run ends, so no amount of engine session or
+transcript replay could ever contain them; this channel is the only one that can.
+A pin outranks both, because `/undismiss` is the human's last word that a finding
+still stands [observed] (`src/core/prior-review.ts:statusOf`).
+
+`answered` means the reply actually **cleared** the finding, not that someone
+replied — and the test is `feedbackApplied`, the same predicate the reporter uses,
+injected rather than imported so the two cannot drift [observed]
+(`src/core/prior-review.ts` `replyCleared` parameter; `src/commands/ci.ts` binds it
+to the run's feedback config). This is load-bearing, not tidiness: LLP 0011 floors
+`critical`/`secrets`/`security` in code so no reply can clear them, and a block
+that labelled such a finding "a human replied to this" would hand the reviewer a
+reason to drop it — reinstating, through the prompt, exactly the suppression the
+floors refuse. A quote without the `id:` token, a third-party commenter, and a
+finding a maintainer pinned back all stay `open` for the same reason. Each record
+also goes through `dropStaleVerdict` against the reviewed head first, the same
+rule both merge paths apply [observed] (`src/commands/ci.ts`, `mergeFeedback` in
+`src/reporters/github.ts:178`): a verdict is a claim about SOURCE and
+`fingerprintFinding` excludes the line number, so without it an accepted rebuttal
+from an earlier revision would keep marking a finding answered after the code it
+judged was edited away.
+
+It is untrusted, and treated so. The titles and paths are model output produced
+by reading an untrusted pull request — `stripStateMarkers` exists precisely
+because a forged marker can arrive inside a model-written rationale (see [LLP
+0011](0011-author-feedback.explainer.md)). Each entry is therefore flattened
+through `flattenUntrusted` onto a single line and the assembled block is swept
+for a forged `----- BEGIN/END PREVIOUS REVIEW -----` fence, the same defense the
+context file gets [observed] (`src/core/prompts.ts` `PRIOR_REVIEW_BOUNDARY`).
+
+Two boundaries are deliberate. The **coordinator never receives it**: it merges
+and decides, and handing it the previous decision is how a decision drifts by
+inheritance rather than by evidence. And the wording frames prior findings as
+claims to re-check, never as conclusions to carry forward — a reviewer that
+restates last run's list without re-deriving it has stopped reviewing, and recall
+is the product. The block says so explicitly, including that absence from the
+list means nothing.
+
+It is **not** part of the review-cache key, which is a deliberate exception to
+"every input joins the hash" [observed] (`src/core/review-cache.ts`
+`ReviewInputHashOptions`). The block is derived from the previous result, so
+including it would change the hash the moment a first review exists and miss on
+every re-review — disabling the cache exactly where it pays. A hit already means
+the diff, files, config and metadata are byte-identical, so reusing that run's
+conclusions is precisely what the block would have told the model to do.

 **The comment is the durable store.** An embedded `<!-- tag:state=... -->` comment holds base64 JSON of the FULL review plus dismissals — not just what is rendered — so a later `/dismiss` or `/undismiss` can re-render without re-running the engine (`render.ts:198-202`, `encodeState`/`parseReviewState` at `render.ts:493-513`). There is no side-channel database; the comment body is the state. Dismissed findings render in a collapsed `<details>` section, disjoint from the active list (a finding is never in both), keeping the main list clean while preserving a `by`/`reason` audit trail.
 
+The full review may contain an engine-owned `reviewTrace`. It is deliberately invisible Markdown state for machine consumers, not a human-facing finding or hidden chain-of-thought. Its schema caps both item count and length, and marks every note as `unverified-model-diagnostics`. Keeping it inside `review` rather than beside it is load-bearing: dismissal re-renders already pass `state.review` back through `renderMarkdown`, so the trace survives `/dismiss` and `/undismiss` without another reporter parameter or a second persistence path [observed: `schema.ts` `CoordinatorOutputSchema.reviewTrace`; `reporters/github.ts` `applyDismissal`; `render.ts` `renderMarkdown`].
+
+The engine-owned `agentSummaries` live in `review` for the same reason, but they are rendered: a collapsed "🔎 Reviewer summaries" section under the overall summary (and under each scope's summary in the aggregate comment) lists one line per roster agent, with its summary, "no summary", or why it did not run. Summaries are model text that reaches the visible body, so `plainModelLine` strips formatting tags, escapes the `&` of every HTML character reference that spells `@` (GitHub decodes `&#64;` or `&commat;` before it looks for mentions; a reference after the `@` needs nothing, since that `@` is broken anyway), escapes every `<` (which also defuses a forged state marker), collapses the text to one line, and puts a zero-width space after every `@` that does not follow an ASCII letter or digit, so a summary can never notify a GitHub user or team. The rule is deliberately broader than GitHub's own (which needs a non-word character before the `@`): markdown starts a new text node at punctuation such as `_`, so `_@login_` renders as `<em>@login</em>` and notifies, and only a letter or digit before the `@` is safe to trust, which keeps an email address whole [observed: `render.ts` `agentSummariesSection`/`plainModelLine`].
+
+The engine-owned `mentions` are the one place a review notifies people on purpose (the `/dismiss` and reply credits only name the person who acted). Each renders as a visible `> 📣 @login: the \`agent\` reviewer asks for your review.` line above the summaries section, followed by the agent's reason through `plainModelLine`. In the aggregate comment the line sits inside its scope's fold, so a request opens that fold like a finding does. Every other piece of model text that reaches a comment, the summaries and each finding's title, rationale, suggestion, source titles and requalification reason, goes through `modelText`, which escapes `@` character references and breaks each `@` by the same rule as the summaries while it keeps the text's lines and formatting; so do the inline finding comments [observed: `render.ts` `modelText`/`breakMentions`]. The renderer checks every login against `MENTION_TARGET_RE` again, because a re-render reads the state back from the comment body. The reporter edits the comment in place on later runs. GitHub documents that an edit which adds a mention notifies that person, so a mention that first appears on a re-review still notifies [observed: GitHub Docs, "Basic writing and formatting syntax", mentioning people and teams; `render.ts` `mentionLines`].
+
+That same rule would notify a person again each time a request returns: `humanReview` is model output recomputed on every run, so it can drop out on one push and come back on the next. The comment state therefore carries `mentioned`: the handles the body mentions for real (`live`) and every handle the comment has ever notified (`notified`). A handle stays live while it stays in the comment, and one that left and came back renders with a zero-width space after its `@`, so the line still names the person without notifying them. `report`, `reportAggregate` and the `/dismiss` re-render all pass the previous state's `mentioned` back in. A comment the bot deletes (`clear()`) and posts again starts with no state, so it notifies again [observed: `render.ts` `nextMentionState`; `reporters/github.ts`].
+
+## Review Result Cache
+
+The same durable comment state is the cache for automated CI reviews. `reviewInputHash` (`src/core/review-cache.ts`) hashes each scoped changed file's content from the materialized PR-head tree, a normalized patch (blob ids and hunk coordinates removed; deletion/mode information retained), and every stable input that can change the result: the engine package version, resolved prompts/config/models, PR title/body, selected agents and routing mode, and external context. It deliberately excludes the temporary trusted-config path and the base/head commit OIDs. A restack changes OIDs and may move hunk line numbers; if it leaves the actual review input byte-identical, CI reuses the complete `CoordinatorOutput` already embedded in the most recent author-verified reviewer comment instead of launching the agents again. Symlinks are hashed as link targets and never followed. A package release changes the key so upgraded review logic runs once. Legacy comments store one `inputHash`; aggregate comments store one per `ScopeReviewResult`, so an unchanged scope can hit independently while a changed sibling reruns.
+
+Reuse is conservative. Manual `/review`/`--force` always reruns. Partial or failed reviews (`incomplete` or `couldNotComplete`) are never cacheable. Aggregate truncation removes the affected scope's hash because the embedded scope is no longer the full result. Stack-aware requalification and model-backed author-feedback seams stay fresh because their live GitHub inputs are not yet represented in the key. Cache lookup failures degrade to an ordinary fresh review. Agent frontmatter `paths` are part of the hashed config (an agent without them carries no key, so its hash is unchanged), and an agent the `paths` filter skips is reported outside `incomplete`, so a skip can neither go stale on a hit nor make a complete result uncacheable ([LLP 0002](0002-review-engine-pipeline.explainer.md#agent-paths-filter)). These gates make a false miss cost tokens, while preventing a false hit from presenting stale or incomplete coverage as current.
+
+The hash is state, not display: it lives only inside the base64 state marker and survives `/dismiss`/`/undismiss` re-renders. The existing author-plus-marker ownership check remains the trust boundary for adopting prior state; a PR author cannot forge a look-alike comment and supply a cache entry.
+
 **The coverage note only cries wolf when there is a wolf.** The partial-coverage warning renders only when `review.incomplete` is non-empty (`render.ts:166`) — the aggregate renderer additionally triggers it when unmatched files exist (`render.ts:373`) — a deliberate anti-noise choice so the warning is trustworthy when it appears (`render.test.ts:34`). The advisory footer ("never blocks a merge and never auto-approves") is duplicated verbatim across both renderers because it is a required trust-boundary claim, not incidental text.
 
 ## Truncation and Aggregate State
 
-`renderAggregateMarkdown` folds multiple monorepo scopes into one comment under the single marker. GitHub's body limit is treated as ~65k chars and the renderer keeps a margin at `MAX_COMMENT_CHARS = 60_000` (`render.ts:316-317`). When a body overflows, it trims each scope's KEPT findings to the most-severe N, halving until it fits with a floor of 3 (`render.ts:480-489`). The first truncation step seeds N from `largestScope / 2` rather than an arbitrary constant, so it lands close to the needed size in one step instead of wasting iterations.

The single comment has no findings trim, but it applies the same first step: escaping (`<` becomes four characters) and the base64 state copy make the summaries several times their byte budget, and a body over GitHub's limit fails to post, which would replace a finished review with the failure notice. Summaries left out this way are gone from the state, so a later `/dismiss` or cache reuse renders without them. If the aggregate body still overflows, it trims each scope's KEPT findings, halving until it fits: first the findings with a live inline thread, which keep their thread on the PR, then the others to the most-severe N, with a floor of 3 per scope in total. Once it fits, it raises both limits back by binary search to what still fits, and if the floor itself does not fit it goes below it, since a body over GitHub's limit is not posted at all (`renderAggregateMarkdown`, `largestFitting`; see [LLP 0008](./0008-sources-and-reporters.explainer.md#inline-threads)). The first truncation step seeds N from `largestScope / 2` rather than an arbitrary constant, so it lands close to the needed size in one step instead of wasting iterations.
 
 The invariant that makes this safe: **dismissed findings always survive in full in the embedded state, regardless of truncation** (`render.ts:449-459`). Truncation trims only the shown/kept set; the state blob still carries every dismissed finding so `/undismiss` never permanently loses a dismissal (`render-aggregate.test.ts:117-137`). An agent "simplifying" truncation to also drop dismissed entries would break `/undismiss`.
 
-The state blob is deliberately dual-shaped: it keeps a synthesized v1-shaped `review` field (a merge across scopes) beside the real per-scope `scopes` field, so older consumers expecting the pre-routing v1 shape keep parsing while v2 consumers read real per-scope data (`render.ts:293-300`, `render-aggregate.test.ts:88-103`). `renderSeveritySections` is the single shared display path for both the single-comment and aggregate renderers, with `SEVERITIES`/`SEVERITY_RANK` as the sole ordering source of truth, so the two renderers cannot drift.

An unknown value renders as a `warning`, and the stored value is kept so the newer engine reads it back unchanged. This only protects engines from this version on.

+
+## Agent Frontmatter and `paths`
+
+`parseFrontmatter` is a minimal YAML-ish reader, not a YAML library, for the same reason the JSONC
+reader is: agent prompts are trusted config read from the base commit. The frontmatter must open on
+the first byte of the file, and lines split on LF or CRLF. Every `key: value` line lands in `data`
+as a scalar, exactly as before lists existed, so `description`, `alwaysRun`, `model`, and
+`temperature` parse byte-identically. A `# comment` after a value is NOT stripped; it stays part of
+the value. Keys whose value is a list ALSO land in `lists`: a one-line
+flow list (`paths: ["a/**", 'b/**', c/**]`, trailing comma allowed) or a block list (`paths:`
+followed by `- item` lines; blank and `#` lines inside are skipped, and the next key ends it)
+[observed: `load.ts` `parseFrontmatter`, `parseFlowList`]. Only `paths` and `mention` read
+`lists`.
+
+`parseAgentPaths` validates `paths` at load time, because a mistyped glob would otherwise skip
+the agent on every PR with nothing reporting it. An invalid value is a **setup warning, not a load
+error**: the agent keeps no `paths`, so it reviews every change, and the warning names the agent
+file and the fix [observed: `load.ts` `parseAgentPaths`]. A load error would be worse than the
+typo. In CI, `ecr ci` reports a load error to stderr and posts nothing (it must never fail the
+check), so one agent's typo would stop every review in the repo. And nothing catches the typo
+first: CI reviews a PR under its base commit's config, so the PR adding the typo loads fine, and
+`ecr verify-config` does not read agent files (it is the credential guard,
+[LLP 0007](0007-cli-commands-and-ci.explainer.md)). The AGENTS.md "fail fast" rule is for setup
+errors that would fail every pass anyway (a bad model id, a credential); an invalid `paths` can
+degrade instead, to the behavior the agent had before it declared `paths`.
+
+The value is invalid when it is not a list, is an empty list, has an empty entry, or has a glob
+that can never match a repo-relative changed-file path: a leading `/` or `./`, a trailing `/` (the
+CODEOWNERS directory form), and a leading `!` (negation is not supported). Typos the reader would
+otherwise turn into a glob that matches nothing are invalid too: an entry with a `# comment`, text
+after its closing quote (a missing comma between two quoted entries), a block item written `-x`
+with no space, and a `{a,b}` brace set or an unmatched brace (an unquoted `{a,b}` splits at its
+comma) [observed: `load.ts` `pathGlobIssue`]. The matcher itself never rejects a string, because
+`matchesIgnore` escapes every regex metacharacter, so these are the only globs that can be
+"invalid". Characters such as `[`, `]`, `?`, and braces without a comma stay literal and legal:
+route file names such as `app/[id].tsx` contain them, and template directories such as
+`{{cookiecutter.slug}}` contain braces.
+
+The same warnings cover the rest of a prompt file's frontmatter, for `shared.md`, `coordinator.md`
+and every agent [observed: `load.ts` `frontmatterWarnings`]: a frontmatter block below an HTML
+comment, a byte-order mark or blank lines (the reader ignores all of its keys; repos scaffolded
+before the templates moved their `@ref` comment have this), and a trailing `# comment` that breaks
+`alwaysRun`, `model` or `temperature`. These only report: the file loads exactly as before, because
+parsing through the hidden block would suddenly apply model pins the repo's credential may not
+cover. Warnings land in `LoadedConfig.setupWarnings`, absent when there are none so a clean setup
+keeps its review-cache key. `runReview` puts them first in `setupNotes` on every result, early
+returns included, so the PR comment's **Review setup** note keeps naming the fix; `ecr doctor`
+fails on them. A deprecated config key that still loads as before (`policy.includeSuggestions`,
+mapped to `policy.minSeverity`) lands in `LoadedConfig.deprecations` instead: it rides in the same
+setup notes, but `ecr doctor` only warns on it, because nothing about the review changes and
+every repo scaffolded before the rename would otherwise fail doctor [observed: `load.ts`
+`resolvePolicy`; `doctor.ts`].
+
+An agent without `paths` gets no `paths` key at all, not `paths: undefined`, so its object shape
+and its review-cache key are unchanged [observed: `load.ts` agent construction]. The
+`defaults.enforceAgents` injection copies the root agent with its `paths`, so an enforced agent
+still runs only in scopes with a matching file. How the engine applies the filter is in
+[LLP 0002](0002-review-engine-pipeline.explainer.md#agent-paths-filter).
+
+`mention` names the people an agent may ask for a human review: a list of GitHub logins or
+`org/team` slugs, with an optional leading `@` that the loader drops. It is the only source of
+whom a review notifies. The agent itself only writes the reason, so a PR cannot make the bot
+mention anyone: CI loads agent files from the base commit, and the model never chooses a login.
+`parseAgentMention` treats a value that is not a list, or an empty list, like an invalid `paths`:
+a setup warning that names the file and the fix, and the agent mentions no one. An entry that does
+not match `MENTION_TARGET_RE` is different: it is left out with a warning that names it, and the
+agent still mentions the valid entries, because one typo should not silence the people listed
+beside it. `MENTION_TARGET_RE` follows GitHub's rules: a login is at most 39 letters, digits and
+single inner hyphens, with an optional Enterprise Managed User `_shortcode` suffix, and a team slug
+is letters, digits and underscores joined by single hyphens. An agent without `mention` gets no
+`mention` key, so its shape and review-cache key are unchanged [observed: `load.ts`
+`parseAgentMention`; `schema.ts` `MENTION_TARGET_RE`].

With `--expect-head <sha>`, both CI paths compare the head they read with `<sha>` after the break-glass check and before any model call, and stop when it differs or is unknown (`expectedHeadMismatch` in [ci.ts](../src/commands/ci.ts)). The single-config path posts a `couldNotComplete` "not reviewed" note (`postNotReviewed`). The routed path only logs and removes the reviewer's ready label: its root comment holds the aggregate and its per-scope state, which a single-review render would replace, so a later `--scopes` run would lose the other scopes' results. A malformed flag (`--expect-head=<sha>`, an empty value, a short hash, the flag twice) is a usage error, never ignored, since an ignored flag would review an unpinned head without a word (`parseExpectHead`). Releases from before the flag ignore it like any unknown argument, so a workflow that passes it must pin a release that has it. The diff compares the same base and head commits the trees are checked out at (see [LLP 0008](./0008-sources-and-reporters.explainer.md#pr-head-materialization)), so a push after the check cannot swap the diff either [observed] (tests `src/__tests__/github-pr-head.test.ts`).

Any of them made a local review parse no files and report "No reviewable changes". Two more change the content rather than break the parse: a textconv driver shows converted text instead of the file the reviewers and verifier read (or nothing, when both sides convert alike), and copy detection (`diff.renames=copies`) turns a copied file into a hunk-less `copy from`/`copy to` entry, so its contents go unreviewed. `diff.submodule` does both to a submodule change: `log` prints commit subjects that parse as nothing, and `diff` prints the submodule's own file diffs instead of the pointer change. `diff.ignoreSubmodules=all`, or `ignore = all` for a submodule in `.gitmodules`, drops the pointer change entirely.

+The reporter maintains exactly one PR comment, plus optional inline threads (see [Inline Threads](#inline-threads)), and it never approves or requests changes: the only review it creates is a `COMMENT` review that carries a run's new inline threads [observed] ([github.ts](../src/reporters/github.ts) `GitHubReporter` doc comment). The hard problem is: which comment on the PR is *ours*?
 
 **Author + marker, never marker alone.** The comment marker is a hardcoded public literal, readable in the base-branch config, so anyone who can comment on the PR (including the untrusted PR author) could post a comment carrying the marker plus a forged embedded review state. A newest-marker-wins lookup would adopt that state and carry its `dismissed` list forward, silently suppressing real findings. So a comment counts as ours only if it carries the marker AND was authored by `ownLogin` — GitHub sets a comment's author from the authenticated identity and it cannot be spoofed [observed] ([github.ts:51-75](../src/reporters/github.ts); commit 93aaf30: "identify our own comment by author + marker, not the public marker alone, so a forged comment can't carry review state forward"; regression tests `src/__tests__/github-reporter.test.ts:25-34`). Any rewrite that reintroduces marker-only matching reopens this forged-dismissal-state attack.
 
-**Fail closed on unresolvable identity.** `resolveOwnLogin` tries `gh api user --jq .login` first (works for a user/PAT token), and falls back to the literal `github-actions[bot]` only under GitHub Actions, because the default `GITHUB_TOKEN` is an installation token for which `/user` returns 403 [observed] ([github.ts:91-117](../src/reporters/github.ts)). When neither resolves, `ownLogin` is `null` and `selectOwnComments` treats NOTHING as ours [observed] ([github.ts:69-71, 114](../src/reporters/github.ts): `if (!ownLogin) return []`; test `github-reporter.test.ts:46-50`). It does not degrade to marker-only matching; it refuses to claim anything.
+**Fail closed on unresolvable identity.** `resolveOwnLogin` tries `gh api user --jq .login` first (works for a user/PAT token). An installation token, the default `GITHUB_TOKEN` or a GitHub App's, gets 403 there, so it next asks GraphQL for `viewer { login __typename }`, which GitHub documents for installation tokens; `viewerRestLogin` accepts only a Bot, since only an installation token gets that far, and adds the `[bot]` suffix REST uses for comment authors and event actors when GraphQL leaves it off [not verified live]. Only when both fail does it fall back to the literal `github-actions[bot]`, and only under GitHub Actions ([github.ts](../src/reporters/github.ts) `resolveOwnLogin`, `viewerRestLogin`). When neither resolves, `ownLogin` is `null` and `selectOwnComments` treats NOTHING as ours [observed] ([github.ts:69-71, 114](../src/reporters/github.ts): `if (!ownLogin) return []`; test `github-reporter.test.ts:46-50`). It does not degrade to marker-only matching; it refuses to claim anything.
 
 **Full-tag marker matching.** `<!-- tag -->` is checked as a whole tag, not as a substring, so a root marker and a scoped marker `<!-- tag:scope -->` cannot cross-match — this is the "reviewdog #1911 lesson", a known bug class in other PR-comment tools where prefix-matching markers collide across scopes [observed] ([github.ts:180-185](../src/reporters/github.ts), citing the lesson verbatim). Deletion is scoped strictly to author-verified comments: `clear()` and the upsert's duplicate cleanup only ever delete comments returned by `selectOwnComments`, never a look-alike carrying the same marker from someone else [observed] ([github.ts:186-192, 351-366](../src/reporters/github.ts)).

 **Links fail soft.** `linkContextAsync` can be prebuilt and injected once so a CI fan-out builds one diff-lines + base-SHA context for all scopes instead of one pair of `gh` calls per scope — the reporter-side mirror of `memoizeSource` [observed] ([github.ts:33-37, 200-205](../src/reporters/github.ts)). Both underlying fetches fail soft: a missing diff index degrades in-diff findings to plain-text `file:line`, a missing base SHA degrades out-of-diff findings the same way — never a dead link, never a hard failure of the whole report [observed] ([github.ts:194-235](../src/reporters/github.ts); commits f9fecd5, 9446b42). This follows the repo rule that `ecr ci` must never fail a PR's checks on reviewer error [observed] (AGENTS.md: "`ecr ci` must never fail a PR's checks — reviewer errors degrade gracefully").
 
+**The ready label follows the decision, and the bot removes only its own.** With `review.readyForHumanLabel` set, `report` and `reportAggregate` call `syncReadyLabel` after the comment is posted, and `postSkipNote` and `clear` call it with "not ready". `postSkipNote` is `ecr ci`'s break-glass path only: `ecr post-review` and `ecr review --pr --post` post nothing on break-glass, and a PR the trigger policy skips returns before any reporter call, so those leave the comment and the label as they are. `ecr ci` also calls `removeReadyLabel` before it reviews new commits (a `pull_request` `synchronize` event, `isNewCommitsEvent`), so the label never describes a head no review has seen; the review adds it back if the new head is ready. With a personal or App token the removal is itself an `unlabeled` event that starts another run, which cancels this one under the scaffolded workflow's `cancel-in-progress` and reviews the same head; that run is not a `synchronize`, so it does not remove the label again. Label failures only log: the comment is already up [observed] ([github.ts](../src/reporters/github.ts) `syncReadyLabel`, `readyForHuman`, `lastLabelEvent`; tests `src/__tests__/ready-label.test.ts`).
+
+**Ready means the run reviewed the whole PR.** `readyForHuman` is true when every review completed with full coverage (`incomplete` is empty), at least one reviewer applied, and the worst decision is `approve` or `approve_with_comments`; `reportAggregate` also requires no unmatched files. A review where no agent's `paths` matches approves with every `agentSummaries` row `notRun`, so that is what "no reviewer applied" checks; `incomplete` stays empty there, and a noise-only review has no rows at all. A run that reviewed part of the PR sets the reporter's `partialReview`, and then `syncReadyLabel` treats it as not ready: an explicit `--agents` subset in `ecr ci` and `ecr review --pr --post`, a `--scopes` run, whose other scopes come from the comment's stored state without a check against the head, and a deferred review saved with `--agents`, which records `partialReview` in the artifact for `ecr post-review` to pass on. A bare `/review` lets the router pick agents and is a full run. Without `--scopes` every active scope gets a result, failures included, so no other check for missing scopes is needed ([ci.ts](../src/commands/ci.ts) `runLegacyCi`, `runRoutedCi`; [deferred-review.ts](../src/core/deferred-review.ts)).
+
+**Ownership comes from the label's own history.** The newest `labeled` or `unlabeled` event for the label (`lastLabelEvent`; the events API lists the oldest first) decides what is ours: a review that is not ready removes the label only when the newest event is our account's `labeled`, and a ready review does not add it again when the newest event is another account's `unlabeled`. No extra state is stored in the comment. The walk stops at the page cap; when it stops on a full page, a newer event may lie beyond it, so `syncReadyLabel` changes nothing and logs. "Our account" is `resolveOwnLogin` (see [GitHub reporter identity](#github-reporter-identity)). The check is by login, not by person: a personal token treats that person's own changes as ours, under the default token other workflows' label changes are `github-actions[bot]` too and count as ours, and a local `ecr review --pr --post` and CI run as different logins, so neither removes the other's label.
+
+**Only the single comment labels, and the label is advisory.** In per-scope mode there is no one decision for the PR, `ecr ci` logs that it sets no label, and the root-tag `clear` of a mode switch removes ours (`runRoutedCi` in [ci.ts](../src/commands/ci.ts)). `/dismiss` re-renders with the stored decision, so it does not change the label. Label names match case-insensitively, as GitHub treats them, and the config check rejects a label that is, in any case, also `review.label`, `review.skipLabel` or a `<label>:<agent>` trigger. The decision comes from model output on untrusted PR content (see [LLP 0001](./0001-trust-model.principles.md)), so the label is advisory, never a merge gate.
+
+## Inline Threads
+
+With `inline.enabled`, `syncInline` converges one inline thread per in-diff finding: `planInlineSync` decides which threads to create, patch, stub or delete, and the executor runs the plan [observed] ([github.ts](../src/reporters/github.ts) `planInlineSync`, `syncInline`).
+
+**One review per run for new threads.** GitHub makes every `POST /pulls/{n}/comments` its own review, so posting threads one by one put one "reviewed" entry and one notification per finding on the PR. The executor instead posts all of a run's new threads in one `POST /pulls/{n}/reviews` with `event: "COMMENT"`, the reviewed head as `commit_id`, and an empty body [observed] ([github.ts](../src/reporters/github.ts) `createInlineReview`). GitHub's docs call the body required for a `COMMENT` review, but it accepts an empty or missing one when the review has comments [observed: probe against a private scratch PR, 2026-10-21]. A submitted review can't be deleted, so a body would stay on the PR after its threads are torn down; an empty one leaves nothing. In per-scope comment mode every scope's reporter syncs its own threads, so a run posts one review per scope with new threads [observed] (`reporterFor` in `src/commands/ci.ts` passes the root `inline` config to each scope). Patches, stubs and deletes stay per comment: they edit existing threads and create no review.
+
+**The batch is all or nothing, and only a 422 a comment caused is retried.** GitHub rejects the whole review with a 422 when it refuses one comment, for example a line it will not anchor, and then creates nothing: a review with one valid and one unanchorable line came back 422 `Line could not be resolved` and created neither comment [observed: probe against a private scratch PR, 2026-10-21]. That error falls back to one `POST /pulls/{n}/comments` per thread, so only the refused comment is lost. Two 422s are about the account, not a comment, and one-by-one posts would hit them again: GitHub's spam throttle ("submitted too quickly") aborts the rest of the sync like a rate limit, for the review and for each one-by-one post, and a pending review the posting account already has on the PR (GitHub allows one, and refuses both POSTs with "one pending review per pull request" while it exists) fails the new threads with a message saying to submit or delete it, while stubs and deletes still run. Telling them apart needs the response body: `gh` prints only the top-level message to stderr (`gh: Unprocessable Entity (HTTP 422)`) and the body, with `errors[]`, to stdout [observed: probe against a private scratch PR, 2026-10-21; the spam throttle's text is from reports, not reproduced], so both POSTs run with `check: false` and `ghApiFailure` keeps the body's distinct messages, each capped, in the error. Any other failure, such as a 5xx or a dropped connection, may come after GitHub created the review, so a retry could post every thread twice: the executor counts those threads as failed and does not retry, the main comment renders the findings in full, and the next run creates whatever is still missing. A rate limit aborts the rest of the sync as before [observed] (`syncInline`, `isPendingReviewError`, `ghApiFailure`; tests `src/__tests__/inline-review.test.ts`).
+
+**Links come from a second call.** The review response does not list its comments, so the executor reads `GET /pulls/{n}/reviews/{id}/comments` a page at a time, up to the same 30-page bound as every comment listing, and maps each comment to its finding by the anchored marker in its body (`inlineUrlsByFp`). When a page fails, the pages before it stay linked, the threads exist, and the main comment renders the rest in full for this run; the next run finds the threads through `ownInlineComments` and links them. A rate limit on that read aborts the stubs and deletes still to come [observed] (`syncInline`, `inlineReviewCommentPages`).
+
+**The main comment does not repeat an inlined finding.** A finding with a live thread is read in that thread, so the main comment shows only its `id:`, linked to the thread, and its location, in one row per severity under `💬 Inline comments on the diff`, with a link to a reply when an author answered it. The id stays because `/dismiss` takes it and `/dismiss` is an issue comment, not a thread reply. The location stays because the fingerprint leaves out the line, so a finding whose line moved keeps its thread on the old line (`renderSeveritySections`, `splitInlined`, `inlinedLines` in [render.ts](../src/core/render.ts)).
+
+**A thread is live only when it shows the finding.** `syncInline` links a thread when its body already equals the finding's render or its update succeeded, and `/dismiss` and `/undismiss` read the threads before they render and apply the same rule to the stored finding. So a stub, a thread a failed or rate-limited update left showing older text, an outdated thread (GitHub returns `line: null` once its line left the diff, and the thread is collapsed), a finding outside the diff or over `maxComments`, and a failed link are all listed in full. A `/undismiss` restores a stubbed thread before it renders. With duplicate threads for one finding the newest counts, as in `planInlineSync`. When the threads can't be listed, every finding renders in full [observed] (`syncInline`, `applyDismissal` in [github.ts](../src/reporters/github.ts)). The rule cannot see a thread someone resolved, or one a person with write access deleted after the render; the next review run lists the latter in full again.
+
+**The size cap trims inlined findings first.** In the aggregate comment, every inlined finding is trimmed before any listed one: a trimmed inlined finding keeps its thread on the PR, while a listed one appears nowhere else. Inlined findings must still be trimmable, because each renders as one link but carries its full text in the embedded state. A scope with findings keeps at least 3 in total, inlined ones filling up to 3 when fewer are listed. Both limits are shared by every scope and halving overshoots, so once the body fits the renderer raises them again by binary search, inlined first, and a scope that fits whole keeps every finding and its input hash. If 3 large findings still do not fit, it goes below the floor rather than post a body GitHub rejects. A trimmed finding leaves the state, so `/dismiss` does not accept its id until a review run that fits, and the note under the scope says so (`renderAggregateMarkdown`, `largestFitting`; see [LLP 0005](./0005-verification-fingerprints-rendering.explainer.md#truncation-and-aggregate-state)).
+
 ## Terminal Reporter
 
 The terminal reporter writes the primary report to **stdout** (progress and logging go to stderr) specifically so `ecr review > out.txt` captures a clean report and shell redirection works as expected [observed] ([terminal.ts:45-47](../src/reporters/terminal.ts)). It maps `review.decision` to a process exit code via `decisionExitCode`, which is what makes it usable as a pre-push/pre-commit gate; `--json` disables color and `noFail` forces exit 0 [observed] ([terminal.ts:28-32, 38, 49](../src/reporters/terminal.ts)). Color is enabled only on a TTY and only when not `--json` [observed] ([terminal.ts:38](../src/reporters/terminal.ts): `!options.json && Boolean(process.stdout.isTTY)`) — naively coloring whenever output is not JSON, ignoring `isTTY`, would corrupt piped or redirected output with ANSI codes.

 **Agents are files; the filename is the id.** Every markdown file dropped into `agents/` becomes one reviewer, with the filename as its id — there is no separate roster list to maintain [observed: `templates/config.jsonc:7-11`]. `shared.md` (prepended to every agent and the coordinator) and `coordinator.md` are reserved filenames [observed: `templates/config.jsonc:9-11`]. The trap: renaming `security.md` to `secrets.md` does not rename an agent — it creates a *new* agent id with empty history and orphans `security` wherever it is referenced (e.g. `routing.jsonc`'s `defaults.enforceAgents: ["security"]`) [observed: `templates/config.jsonc:7-11` (filename is the agent id); `templates/routing.jsonc:13`].
 
-**Phase-1 default: suggestions off.** The scaffolded `config.jsonc` ships `policy.includeSuggestions: false` — a deliberate choice to surface only critical/warning findings and keep signal high, not because the schema can't do more [observed: `templates/config.jsonc:14-17`; restated in `templates/shared.md:66-67`].
+**Phase-1 default: suggestions off.** The scaffolded `config.jsonc` ships `policy.minSeverity: "design"` — a deliberate choice to surface only critical, warning and design findings and keep signal high, not because the schema can't do more [observed: `templates/config.jsonc:14-17`; restated in `templates/shared.md:66-67`]. The engine has five severities, from most to least severe `critical`, `warning`, `design`, `suggestion` and `nit`, and the policy drops every finding below `minSeverity`. `design` is a should-fix level that does not block the PR. The template prompts ask for `critical`, `warning` and `design`, and let a `design` finding name a concrete cost in place of a failure path; an adopter that wants suggestions or nits lowers `minSeverity` and asks for them in its own prompts. A config that still sets the boolean `includeSuggestions` loads with a deprecation note (a setup note on the review, a non-failing ⚠ in `ecr doctor`): `true` becomes `"nit"` and `false` becomes `"design"` [observed: `src/core/schema.ts` `SEVERITIES`; `src/core/review.ts` `applyReviewPolicy`; `src/config/load.ts` `resolvePolicy`].
 
-**Coordinator and security pin the pro tier on purpose.** The default agent model is `openai/gpt-5.5`, but `coordinator.md` and `agents/security.md` both pin `openai/gpt-5.5-pro` in their frontmatter [observed: `templates/config.jsonc:6`; `templates/coordinator.md:2-9`; `templates/agents/security.md:2-10`]. The rationale is stated in each file: the coordinator makes the final de-dupe/severity/decision call where "consolidation quality matters more here than the small serial-tail latency it adds," and security is "the highest-stakes agent," scoped alone to bound the extra latency/rate-limit cost [observed: `templates/coordinator.md:3-6`; `templates/agents/security.md:5-8`]. Downgrading either to save cost silently reverses that tradeoff, and no test catches it [inferred: no test asserts the coordinator/security model pins, so a cost-driven downgrade would go uncaught].

 **Concurrency defaults by auth mode.** The commented `chunk.concurrency` default is 6 for an API key and 3 for a subscription (OAuth) credential, "one account handles many parallel streams poorly, and several PRs may review on the same credential at once" [observed: `templates/config.jsonc:28-30`].
 
+**Agent `paths` ship commented out, and not on security.** `correctness.md` and `consistency.md` carry a commented `# paths: [...]` frontmatter example, and `config.jsonc` names the key, so an adopter can find it [observed: `templates/agents/correctness.md`, `templates/agents/consistency.md`, `templates/config.jsonc`]. No template sets it: the right globs are repo-specific, and a scaffolded value would narrow review on the first PR. `security.md` gets no example because it is the `alwaysRun` agent, and narrowing it by path would let a change outside the globs (a workflow file, a new package) skip the highest-stakes review. The engine rules for `paths` are in [LLP 0002](0002-review-engine-pipeline.explainer.md#agent-paths-filter).
+
+**Template `@ref` comments sit below the frontmatter.** `parseFrontmatter` reads frontmatter only when the file opens with `---`, so a comment above it would silently drop every key: the description the router reads, `alwaysRun`, and the model pins [observed: `src/config/load.ts` `parseFrontmatter`; `src/__tests__/init-scaffold.test.ts` "the scaffolded prompts' frontmatter takes effect"]. Each prompt template therefore opens with `---`, and its `@ref` comment is the first body line.
+
+**Muse Spark is opt-in without weakening the default secret surface.** The root config
+documents `meta/muse-spark-1.3` plus a `META_API_KEY` auth entry, and each
+review-running workflow shows the corresponding secret line commented out. It is not
+forwarded by the default scaffold: adopters replace the Anthropic line and set
+`ECR_EXPECTED_TOKEN_ENV=META_API_KEY`, so the model process receives only the
+credential actually selected by trusted config. The default remains Anthropic and
+`dismiss.yml` still receives no model credential [observed: `templates/config.jsonc`;
+`templates/workflow.yml`, `command.yml`, and `atlantis.yml`].
+
 **Keep the `**/*` catch-all first in `routing.jsonc`.** Scopes match last-match-wins, so a `**/*` catch-all must come first and more specific scopes come after to override it [observed: `templates/routing.jsonc:27-31`; `AGENTS.md:17-18`]. Nothing validates the order — reversing it silently changes which config applies to already-routed files [inferred: no code checks that the `**/*` catch-all comes first, so reversing it silently changes routing].
 
 **`scope-config.jsonc` deliberately omits `auth` and `commentTag`.** It is a *different* template from the root `config.jsonc`, not a copy. A scope config carries no `auth` block — credentials are root-only, and the loader plus the CI guard reject a scope config that declares one [observed: `templates/scope-config.jsonc:1-3`; `AGENTS.md:51`]. It also omits `commentTag`, because a scope's PR-comment marker is always derived as `<rootTag>:<scope-name>` so `ecr ci` and `ecr review --scope --post` target the same comment; declaring one is rejected by the scope schema [observed: `templates/scope-config.jsonc:23-25`]. Reusing the root `config.jsonc` template for a scope — a tempting "simplification" — would break the trust boundary (LLP 0006).

The rules originated in the euxy adopter repo (commits `30e6117`, `4f1e0f8`) and were folded back here.
 
 **Restraint is a cross-cutting constraint.** "A high-signal review reports roughly one finding, not a firehose. When in doubt, stay silent" in the shared prompt is echoed in every agent template — `correctness.md`'s "Prefer zero findings over a low-value one," `consistency.md`'s precedent requirement, and `security.md`'s "a single well-substantiated critical finding is worth more than ten speculative ones" [observed: `templates/shared.md:63-64`; `templates/agents/correctness.md` last line; `templates/agents/consistency.md` last lines; `templates/agents/security.md:58-59`]. It is a design constraint, not a per-agent style choice.

+# LLP 0012: Review-Setup Ref Integrity
+
+**Type:** Explainer
+**Status:** Active
+**Systems:** Engine, CLI
+**Author:** Philippe Loulidi / Claude
+**Date:** 2026-08-03
+**Related:** [LLP 0006 Config Schema, Loading, and Routing](0006-config-schema-loading-routing.explainer.md), [LLP 0007 CLI Commands and CI](0007-cli-commands-and-ci.explainer.md), [LLP 0009 Adoption Templates and CI Workflows](0009-adoption-templates-and-ci-workflows.guide.md)
+
+A repo's reviewer prompts are full of citations into its own code: "the only session
+entry point is `server/www/src/utils/session.ts`", "every webhook router must call
+`sanitizeSecretPatterns`". Those citations are load-bearing — they are how a prompt
+carries repo knowledge the model does not have — and nothing kept them true. Code
+moves, symbols get renamed, and the prompt keeps citing a path that no longer exists.
+The reviewer then reasons from a fiction, silently, on every PR.
+
+`ecr ref-check` (`src/commands/ref-check.ts`, over `src/core/config-refs.ts`) closes
+that gap: every code citation in a `.expo-code-review/` setup must be a ref, and every
+ref must resolve against the checkout. It is deterministic — no model, no network —
+in the same family as `ecr verify-config` (see [LLP 0007][verify]).
+
+Two measurements motivated the strict form. Swept against a real adopting monorepo
+(universe) the check found 165 citations, none of them annotated or verified by
+anything; swept against this repo's own setup it found 24 [observed]. Not one of those
+citations was checked before this existed.
+
+## The `@ref` Grammar
+
+One grammar, reused from the engine's own LLP annotations, so an author learns it once:
+
+    @ref <target> [relation] — why it matters
+
+In markdown it lives in an HTML comment, in JSONC after `//`. Targets:
+
+| Target | Resolves when |
+|---|---|
+| `path/to/file.ts` | the file exists |
+| `path/to/dir/` | the directory exists (trailing slash is required) |
+| `path/to/file.ts#symbolName` | the file exists and still contains that whole word |
+| `path/to/doc.md#heading` | the file exists and has that heading |
+| `glob:**/Handler.kt` | at least one file in the repo matches |
+| `https://…` | shape only, never fetched |
+
+Refs are **always repo-root-relative**, including inside a scope's setup dir. A scope's
+prompts describe the same tree the reviewer sees in the diff, so a second base
+directory would only create ambiguity about which one a ref meant. Scoped prompts do
+naturally cite their own subtree (`general-central/module` for
+`infrastructure/general-central/module`), so that stays a broken ref — but the message
+resolves it against the scope root and names the root-relative form to use.
+
+`glob:` exists for readability. A Kotlin path 90 characters deep gets abbreviated in
+prose (`.../config/MetricGroupCounter.kt`) and an abbreviation cannot be resolved, so
+the check suggests the suffix glob `glob:**/config/MetricGroupCounter.kt` — short in the
+prompt, still verified.
+
+**Invariant:** a target is data, never a command. Resolution reads files inside the repo
+root only, via the same `pathInside` confinement the verifier uses ([LLP 0005][verify5]);
+absolute paths and `..` escapes are refused, not resolved.
+
+## No Line Numbers, Symbol Anchors Instead
+
+A ref may not pin a line. `src/auth.ts:42` is refused in an annotation *and* in prose,
+because a line number is the one form of citation that rots without any signal: insert
+a line above it and the ref still "resolves", now pointing at unrelated code. `#symbol`
+is the robust alternative — it survives the code moving inside its file, and breaks
+exactly when the thing cited is renamed or deleted, which is when a human should look.
+
+For the same reason there is no content hash or pinned revision in the grammar. A digest
+would trip on every edit to the cited file, including edits that leave the prompt
+perfectly correct, and a check that cries wolf gets disabled. The drift signal lives on
+the review side instead (below).
+
+## Unannotated Citations Are Broken Refs
+
+Checking only what an author annotated would make the mechanism decorative: the stale
+citations are precisely the ones nobody thought about. So a backticked token in a setup
+file that *looks like* a repo path and is not a ref fails the check.
+
+That rule needs a precise notion of "looks like a path", because prompts also backtick
+config keys, severities, commands and model ids. It comes in two tiers.
+
+**Shape alone** (`isCodeCitation`): an allowlisted source extension, a trailing slash, or
+a wildcard tail inside a path — and never whitespace, `:`, `<`, `(` or quotes. So
+`session.ts`, `src/entities/oauth/` and `.github/workflows/**` are citations, while
+`ecr ci`, `label:<agent>`, `knex.raw()`, `critical` and a bare `.ts` are prose. The
+allowlist carries native build files (`.mm`, `.gradle`, `.xml`, `.plist`, `.podspec`, …),
+which mobile prompts cite constantly; `.env` stays off it, because `process.env` is the
+commoner token. Fenced code blocks are skipped whole: they are examples, not claims about
+the tree.
+
+**Shape plus the filesystem** (`pathishCandidates`), for the citations shape cannot
+settle. A reviewer of this feature named the case: a Terraform prompt citing
+`eas-build-worker/terraform`, `general-central/{module,production}` and `finops`, with
+"this is very likely going to drift" [observed] — not one of those has an extension, and
+`anthropic/claude-opus-5` is shaped identically while naming no file. Syntax cannot tell
+them apart, so an extensionless token counts as a citation exactly when it *names
+something real*: probed against the scope's own subtree first, then the repo root (a
+scoped prompt citing `alerts/` means its own tree even when the root has one too), brace
+lists cut back to their fixed prefix. A token carrying `*` resolves as a glob instead,
+scope-rebased when that is what matches, so the suggested `glob:` ref itself resolves.
+Model ids resolve to nothing and stay prose.
+
+A trailing slash is shape, but not enough on its own. Prompts for a repo of many
+packages say `ios/`, `src/` or `android/src/` meaning *each package's* directory of that
+name, and no single ref can pin that: `ios/` does not exist at the root, and
+`glob:**/ios/**` matches the whole tree, so it would verify nothing. So a trailing-slash
+token that resolves at neither the scope root nor the repo root is a citation only when
+no directory of that name exists anywhere in the repo; if one does, it is
+package-relative prose. Swept against expo/expo this removed 28 of 149 problems, every
+one of them a package-relative name whose suggested fix could never resolve [observed].
+The tradeoff is the extensionless one again: a misspelled `iso/` or a deleted `oldpkg/`
+still fails, but a stale `foo/bar/` whose name survives somewhere else
+in the tree goes quiet.
+
+Every suggested fix must itself resolve, or following the message trades one failure
+for another. A partial path (`start/doctor/apple/XcodePrerequisite.ts`) is taught the
+one repo file it is a suffix of, or `glob:**/<token>` when several are, and a suffix glob
+covers the partial path it was written for: coverage reads each `**/` as zero or more
+directories, as routing does ([LLP 0004][dialect]), while resolution keeps the shared
+dialect unchanged, so `./ref-check` needs no change. A wildcard directory
+(`packages/*/apple/`) is taught `glob:packages/*/apple/**`, since a glob matches files
+only, and a leading `./` is dropped, since repo paths never carry one. A citation that matches nothing at
+all gets no suggestion: the message says it does not resolve and may be stale, which is
+usually the real finding.
+
+The consequence is deliberate: an extensionless path that had already drifted before
+adoption is invisible (nothing distinguishes it from prose), while every one that is true
+today gets pinned and will be caught the moment it moves. This mechanism prevents future
+drift; it does not retroactively find old drift.
+
+The escape hatch is explicit and per-token: `@ref-ignore knex.raw()` in a comment.
+Anything the heuristic misclassifies is one short line away from silence, which is why
+the rule can afford to be strict rather than advisory.
+
+**Invariant:** the check never rewrites a prompt. It reports; a human decides whether the
+ref or the prompt was wrong. A stale citation often means the *guidance* is stale, not
+just the path.
+
+## Structural Refs Need No Annotation
+
+Some refs the config already declares, so they are checked without annotation:
+`enforceAgents` ids must exist as `agents/<id>.md` in the ROOT setup (that is where the
+loader resolves them, see [LLP 0006][routing]), every scope's `config` must point at a
+real `.expo-code-review/` directory inside the repo, and every scope glob must match at
+least one file — a scope whose paths match nothing ships prompts that review nothing.
+
+## What Gets Scanned
+
+Setup dirs are found by walking the tree, not by reading `routing.jsonc`: a scope dir the
+manifest forgot still ships prompts, and its stale refs are exactly what this exists to
+surface — the same reason `ecr verify-config` sweeps on disk instead of trusting the
+manifest ([LLP 0007][verify]). Inside a setup dir the scan covers prompts and configs
+(`.md`, `.json`, `.jsonc`, `.txt`) and skips dot entries, so `.runs/` artifacts are never
+scanned. Dot directories elsewhere are skipped too, which keeps `.claude/worktrees/`
+checkouts of the same repo from being swept as if they were scopes.
+
+## Run Points: Command and Review
+
+`ecr ref-check` exits 1 on any problem: that is the gate, for CI or a pre-commit hook.
+
+The review path also runs it, and never fails a PR's checks with it — that invariant
+holds ([LLP 0002][pipeline]). Instead the review *advises*: broken refs in the setup
+become a note the reviewer comment carries, and `citedPathsTouchedBy` adds the drift
+signal a static check cannot give — "this PR changes code your reviewer prompts cite, so
+the guidance may need updating" — even when the ref still resolves. Only refs that fail
+to resolve count toward the first note; a line-number citation is refused by the command
+but usually names a file that exists, so it is not reported as unresolved. The drift
+signal matches by prefix, so a ref to a top-level directory (`packages/`, `docs/`) is
+still checked but does not feed it. With every suggested ref followed, plus `packages/`,
+`docs/` and `apps/`, the note fired on 282 of expo/expo's last 300 commits; without the
+top-level directories, 196 [observed]. A note that fires on nearly every PR is noise.
+The cut stops at one segment because two (`packages/expo-ui/`) usually name one unit
+someone owns, where a PR touching it is the signal working; the remaining volume comes
+mostly from such package directories, and from wide two-segment ones like
+`docs/pages/`, which an author should narrow by hand.
+
+In CI the config comes from the trusted base ref while refs resolve against the PR head tree, so a PR that
+moves cited code is reported against the config that will actually review it.
+
+## Two Checkers, One Grammar
+
+The engine repo now has two ref checkers, and they scan overlapping files: `./ref-check`
+(the LLP corpus validator, which walks the whole tree) and `ecr ref-check` (setup dirs
+only). Running both surfaced two genuine conflicts, where one checker failed an
+annotation the other accepted [observed]:
+
+- `glob:` targets were unknown to `./ref-check`, which read them as a literal path and
+  reported "path not found".
+- Documenting the syntax broke both: a usage line containing the comment form with a
+  `<target>` placeholder was collected as a real ref, and so were the README's fenced
+  examples — the docs that teach refs were the first thing the checkers rejected.
+
+All of it is fixed in the grammar rather than per-checker: `glob:` is understood by both,
+a target starting with `<` or a backtick is a documentation placeholder, and an annotation
+inside a fenced code block is an example that neither checker resolves.
+
+Ownership stays split by target kind, not by file: an `LLP NNNN` target belongs to the
+design corpus and its own checker, so `ecr ref-check` neither resolves nor counts one —
+it owns exactly the refs that cite the reviewed repo's code. That split is why the
+templates can keep their engine annotations and still scaffold a repo that passes
+`ecr ref-check` on day one (asserted in `init-scaffold.test.ts`). An earlier attempt had
+`ecr init` strip those annotations while scaffolding; it mixed the two mechanisms and
+broke the "workflow templates land byte-identical" invariant [observed]. Parsing is what
+must be right: `LLP 0009#anchor` is one target containing a space, and taking the first
+whitespace-separated token left a bare `LLP` that read as a broken path.
+
+**Invariant:** the grammar is shared. A change to target kinds, the placeholder rule, or
+the glob dialect must land in `./ref-check` and `src/core/config-refs.ts` together, or the
+same annotation will pass one checker and fail the other.

+**Type:** Explainer
+**Status:** Active

+**Date:** 2026-08-06

+
+`@expo/code-review-cli` ships a documentation-search MCP as a second binary in
+the same npm package. ECR exposes that bounded MCP directly to reviewer and cross-file
+passes. Those agents decide when an external contract needs evidence, search for a
+precise symbol, or fetch an exact supported documentation URL already present in the
+review context. Coordinator, verifier, stack-verifier, and no-tools fallback passes do
+not receive the MCP.
+
+## One Package, Two Binaries
+
+The package exposes `ecr` and `review-research-mcp`. Keeping both in one package
+makes the query router, MCP protocol, source adapters, tests, and review integration
+one versioned unit. ECR does not resolve the MCP through `PATH`: it starts the
+package-relative entry point with the current absolute Node executable. Root config
+supplies only enablement, bounds, and an optional absolute fallback index path—not an
+arbitrary command, endpoint, host, or argument vector.
+
+The MCP remains a process boundary rather than an in-process import. Its stdout is
+the only result channel, and ECR caps calls, results, and per-call duration. Each run
+uses an owner-only temporary MCP configuration and append-only audit. A tool failure
+remains local to research and never skips or weakens an ordinary review pass.
+
+The environment ECR declares in that configuration is a request, not a boundary. Both
+Claude Code and OpenCode merge a server's `env` onto the environment they already hold
+rather than replacing it, so the declared allowlist alone leaves the engine's model
+credential in the child — and under OpenCode the runner's entire ambient environment,
+because the SDK spawns its server with an unfiltered `process.env`. ECR therefore does
+not rely on the engines for this. The command in the configuration names a wrapper that
+rebuilds the environment from an explicit allowlist and then starts the real server.
+The wrapper is deliberately inert: it loads no parser and opens no socket, so the one
+process that still holds the engine's credentials is not the one that parses untrusted
+remote documents. Anything the engine merged in stops there.
+
+Starting a review does not derive searches from the patch, prefetch documentation, or
+start a crawl. ECR only prepares the bounded MCP configuration and audit path. Reviewer
+and cross-file agents make individual search or direct-fetch calls when their reasoning
+identifies an external contract that needs grounding. This keeps query selection inside
+the pass that understands the candidate issue and avoids spending calls on speculative
+identifier searches.
+
+## Search, Fetch, and Optional Index Boundary
+
+`review-research-mcp serve` uses Brave Web Search as discovery for non-Expo
+providers. Each request combines the already-sanitized API/concept query with a fixed
+provider-owned `site:` scope. The endpoint is fixed, redirects are rejected, response
+size/time/hit count are capped, and the fixed `BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY` is the only
+credential the wrapper admits into the server's environment. Search titles, snippets,
+and ranking are untrusted discovery hints, never evidence.
+
+One reserved call is not one request. A search selects up to four providers, each of
+which issues its own discovery request and then downloads candidate pages until it has
+enough results, and every page may cost up to six round trips through the redirect
+chain. The call budget alone therefore understates outbound traffic by more than an
+order of magnitude, so each call carries a ledger — discovery requests, page fetches,
+redirect hops, total requests, elapsed time — recorded in the audit and summed for the
+review. The same seam carries one end-to-end deadline per call, because no engine can
+supply it: OpenCode's `mcp.timeout` bounds tool discovery rather than execution, and
+Claude passes no per-call timeout at all, leaving only a per-hop limit that multiplies
+instead of bounding. A call that reaches its deadline returns the evidence it already
+has rather than failing.
+
+Every discovered URL must independently pass the provider's exact HTTPS host/path
+allowlist before a fetch begins. Redirects are handled manually and must remain on
+the provider's request allowlist; content type, body size, redirect count, timeout,
+and fetched-page count are bounded. The fetched official body—not the search
+snippet—is parsed, locally ranked, truncated, and returned as evidence. Apple
+documentation uses its structured DocC JSON, including symbol and availability
+metadata. Search-engine sparsity produces an empty result and never broadens the
+trust boundary.
+
+Search-time page retrieval is demand-driven rather than a background prefetch. The
+MCP fetches the highest-ranked allowlisted candidates in batches sized to the number
+of results still needed. It advances to later candidates only when an earlier page is
+rejected, unavailable, or excluded by a requested language. Candidate pages that are
+not needed to fill the result limit are not downloaded.
+
+## Direct URL Fetch Boundary
+
+The MCP also exposes `fetch_platform_doc` for a caller that already has an exact
+documentation link. It infers the narrowest matching provider from a fixed ordering,
+or accepts a fixed provider id as a hint when corpora overlap. The supplied URL must
+pass that provider's canonical HTTPS host/path allowlist before network access. The
+request adapter, every redirect, content type, timeout, and response size then pass
+the same checks as a search-discovered document. The tool fetches one page only and
+returns normalized extracted text—never raw HTML or DocC JSON. An optional query
+selects context within the page; it cannot turn the operation into discovery.
+
+Direct fetch uses progressive disclosure. `focused` returns a small contiguous group
+around the best passage. `section`, the default, returns at most 12,000 contiguous
+characters around that match. `document` returns at most 20,000 extracted characters
+and is reserved for contracts spread across a page. Every response reports the
+extracted document length, returned length, truncation, anchor passage id, and a
+bounded passage-id inventory. Search passages carry adjacent ids so a reviewer can
+recognize missing local context and expand the canonical URL instead of broadening
+discovery.
+
+This path is useful for documentation links already present in review context. For
+Apple symbol links it converts the canonical `/documentation/...` URL into Apple's
+allowlisted DocC JSON request URL, preserving the human-facing canonical URL in the
+result. A URL that matches no provider is rejected before `fetch`; a redirect outside
+the selected provider's separate request allowlist is rejected before following it.
+
+Expo-routed queries use the fixed public Expo Algolia endpoint. Its browser-visible
+key is search-only; redirects are rejected, response size/time/hit count are capped,
+records are schema-validated, and canonical result URLs must remain on
+`docs.expo.dev`.
+
+OkHttp uses the fixed official `lysine.dev` static search index because the newly
+migrated feature pages are not yet comprehensively represented in Brave. The index
+has the same response-size/schema/URL constraints, is cached only within the MCP
+process, and can never admit a URL outside the OkHttp provider allowlist. Brave is a
+fallback when that first-party index is unavailable.
+
+There is no offline index, and no crawler to build one. Live discovery replaced the
+deterministic prefetch it was designed for, and the fallback it provided was never
+free: an index is an artifact whose bytes sit outside the trust boundary the rest of
+the system establishes. `research.indexPath` had to be an absolute path, so it
+resolved against the runner's filesystem rather than the materialized trusted base —
+the trusted-base mechanism protected the config that NAMED the index, never the
+contents at that path, and nothing carried a digest. Index passages were also the one
+evidence source returned unbounded, while every live source is length-capped.
+
+Removing it deletes that whole class of question rather than answering it. Every
+passage a review sees is now fetched during that review from an allowlisted host,
+bounded on entry. A config still naming `research.indexPath` fails to parse, so a
+stale setting surfaces as an error instead of being silently ignored.
+
+This also removes the reason researched reviews could not reuse a cached result.
+Reuse was disabled whenever research was enabled because evidence depended on mounted
+index contents that the cache key could not represent; with no mounted artifact, the
+ordinary input hash covers the whole review again.
+
+## Query and Prompt Boundary
+
+Reviewer prompts and MCP tool metadata tell direct clients to use exact symbols plus
+one member, behavior, or constraint term, and to retry a broad result with at most one
+narrower query. The MCP then deterministically removes quoted literals, URLs, email
+addresses, paths, prose stop words, overlong or high-entropy tokens, and unsupported
+punctuation. Credential-shaped or secret-labeled input fails closed. The remaining
+query must contain an API-like symbol — which includes hyphenated package names such
+as `expo-camera` — or be a short multi-word lowercase concept phrase, stay under eight
+short tokens, and fit the review-wide call budget. The concept-phrase allowance exists
+because guide, release-note, and Expo topics frequently have no CamelCase symbol; its
+tokens pass the same length, entropy, and secret checks, and a single generic word
+still fails closed. The search tool's advertised result limit is derived from the
+enforced per-call bound, and the direct-fetch focused passage count is independent of
+that bound, so a caller's mental model matches what a request can return.
+
+Provider selection preserves native platform ownership. Swift or Objective-C source
+uses Apple for OS contracts; Kotlin, Java, and Gradle source uses Android for platform
+contracts. Explicit library signals add the owning provider—such as SDWebImage,
+Media3, Glide, or OkHttp—when library behavior also matters. Repository ownership is
+not documentation ownership, so a `packages/expo-*` path does not replace Apple or
+Android with Expo documentation. Runtimes, tools, and formats that code on any platform
+relies on (SQLite, Git, Node.js, the Swift book, npm) are owned by their own projects, so
+the platform only chooses the default providers. A provider the caller names is searched
+whatever platform the query names, because an iOS module that stores data in SQLite still
+needs the SQLite documentation. An issue tracker (JetBrains YouTrack) is the exception: its
+pages are user-written text, so a search names it only with its own platform.
+
+These checks bound the SHAPE of an outbound request, not its information content. The
+reviewing model reads repository data and then chooses the query terms and URL path,
+and a token that satisfies every rule above — short, low-entropy, API-shaped — can
+still encode repository-derived bytes. The provider allowlist fixes who receives a
+request; it does not constrain what the request says. Research is therefore an
+outbound disclosure channel to Brave and the documentation providers, appropriate only
+where repository-derived terms may be shared with them, and the reviewer prompt's
+instruction not to send repository text is a mitigation rather than an enforcement.
+
+MCP output is schema-validated, limited to HTTPS URLs from the requested provider,
+truncated, and sanitized. Returned passages are labeled untrusted reference data in
+the reviewer prompt. The Brave credential is scoped to the MCP child and is never
+written to MCP output, prompts, logs, or run artifacts. Issue tracker text keeps
+distinct provenance and is never presented as an API contract.
+
+## Research Provenance and Citations
+
+Research is observable without exposing the Brave key or unbounded responses. Each review
+prints the exact bounded queries and every accepted result's title, provider,
+provenance class, and canonical URL. GitHub Actions receives that same data in its
+step summary. The JSONL run log additionally stores at most the already-bounded
+passage returned to the reviewer so operators can determine whether research was
+useful after the fact; it still excludes PR title/body and model transcripts.
+
+Calls refused before execution are also audited, by reason class only: a rejected
+query, a rejected direct-fetch URL, or an exhausted call budget. The refused input is
+never recorded — it may be exactly the material the sanitizer refused to send — but
+the counts surface in progress output and the step summary so operators can see unmet
+research demand and tune the budget. A budget-exhausted attempt does not consume a
+reservation.
+
+The reviewer may select a source for a finding only by copying its exact title and URL
+from an MCP result. Model output crosses an engine-side grounding seam: URLs absent
+from the run's append-only MCP audit are removed and accepted titles are restored from
+canonical evidence. URL matching is fragment-insensitive — a model that normalizes a
+copied URL by dropping its `#fragment` keeps its citation, and the audited URL (never
+the model's variant) is what gets restored. Grounded sources are unioned across
+duplicate reviewer findings, preserved through coordinator rewrites by the finding
+fingerprint, stored in hidden comment state, and rendered as visible links. Sources do
+not participate in fingerprints or severity/decision logic, and findings that did not
+materially use research omit them.
+
+A finding that cites research always reaches the adversarial verifier, and its task
+inlines the audited passages behind those citations as fenced untrusted reference
+data. The repository alone cannot confirm an external-behavior claim, so without the
+passages the verifier would judge it from model memory — the failure mode research
+exists to remove. The verifier separately reports whether the cited passages support
+the claim; an explicitly unsupported citation is stripped (including its
+fingerprint-carried copy) while the finding itself still stands or falls on the
+ordinary verdict, and any ambiguity fails open toward keeping the citation.
+
+A reviewer may also emit a bounded, conclusion-only `researchDecisions` record when
+documentation materially confirms a finding candidate or proves one safe. These
+records never enter policy or decision logic. ECR discards any record without an exact
+audited source. After verification and suppression produce the final findings, ECR
+counts final cited findings, supported and dismissed candidates, and unique result
+URLs materially used versus unused. A narrow heuristic also counts final findings that
+assert external platform behavior — a version or API-level claim, or
+documented-lifecycle wording — with no grounded citation; the count is advisory
+observability, never a gate. The Actions summary displays those metrics and grounded
+candidate conclusions; the JSONL run record preserves the same structured data with
+the queries and bounded results.
+
+## Installation-Specific Research Is Deferred
+
+The built-in source catalog covers Apple, Android, platform releases, Swift
+Evolution, SDWebImage, Media3, Glide, OkHttp, Kotlin coroutines, Gradle/AGP, selected JetBrains
+issues, Expo, React, React Native, WHATWG and W3C web specifications, Chrome DevTools
+Protocol, Flow, TypeScript, the Android NDK, CMake, CocoaPods, Metro, Reanimated,
+Gesture Handler, Screens, Worklets, SQLite, Git, Node.js, MDN, GitHub Actions, the Swift
+book, the Kotlin standard library, Jest, npm, and pnpm. The React Native
+additions cover the contracts its implementation must preserve: React semantics, its
+web-compatible APIs, the repository's type systems, and its native build and dependency
+managers. Hermes documentation is intentionally not fetched from the engine's `main`
+branch because it can disagree with React Native's vendored revision. Repository PR and
+issue history is intentionally not a
+live evidence provider: it belongs in a versioned offline evaluation corpus used to
+improve prompts, while the runtime MCP remains an API-contract channel.
+The canonical OkHttp host is backed by both the
+[maintainer's transfer announcement](https://jakewharton.com/the-lysine-contingency/)
+and [Commonhaus's project-transfer record](https://www.commonhaus.org/activity/315.html).
+A later design may let adopters select or add research capabilities through trusted
+root configuration, similar to agent files. That extension must not turn arbitrary
+PR-controlled URLs, commands, parsers, or executable plugins into review inputs. New
+remote sources still need an operator-controlled host/path allowlist and provenance
+class; scope configs remain unable to alter the research runtime or index.
+
+Expo skills solve a different problem: pinned procedural guidance for how a reviewer
+should reason or act. They may later be supplied as versioned, separately labeled
+trusted context selected from root configuration. Documentation results remain
+untrusted evidence with canonical sources. A crawler result must never install,
+activate, or rewrite a reviewer skill.
