SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Pre-landing PR reviews that catch structural issues before merging, reducing risk and bug surface.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detects SQL safety issues, LLM trust boundary problems, race conditions, and conditional side effects in diffs.
  • Performs a two-pass review (critical then informational) with fix-first methodology.
  • Guides engineers to verify changes before shipping and to assess scope drift and requirement coverage.

Quick Start

Run the pre-landing review on the current diff to surface critical issues and recommended fixes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I catch race conditions and SQL safety issues in a PR review?

Pre-landing PR review analyzes your repository diff against the base branch to detect critical race conditions and SQL safety issues. It also operates across LLM trust boundaries and conditional side effects to surface actionable findings.

What is a two-pass review methodology for diffs?

A two-pass review evaluates code changes sequentially, first identifying critical issues and then reviewing informational findings. This fix-first methodology guides engineers to verify changes and assess scope drift before shipping.

How do I review LLM trust boundaries and conditional side effects before merging?

Pre-landing reviews evaluate LLM trust boundaries and conditional side effects by classifying findings from the repository diff. This process guides remediation to verify changes and assess requirement coverage before shipping.

Can I use diff analysis to guide auto-fixes for pre-landing code reviews?

Yes, diff analysis classifies findings against a review checklist to guide auto-fixes. By evaluating the repository diff and base branch, it provides actionable remediation steps for structural issues.

What do I need to provide to run a pre-landing PR review on my changes?

You need to provide the repository diff, the base branch, and a review checklist. The review uses these inputs to classify findings and guide remediation for scope drift and requirement coverage.
