Code Review

Philosophy

Code review maintains a healthy codebase while helping contributors succeed. The burden of proof is on the PR to demonstrate it adds value. Your job is to help it get there through actionable feedback.

Critical: A perfectly written PR that adds unwanted functionality must still be rejected. The code must advance the codebase in the intended direction. When rejecting, provide clear guidance on how to align with project goals.

Be friendly and welcoming while maintaining high standards. Call out what works well. When code needs improvement, be specific about why and how to fix it.
