Apply the no-ai-slop standard (now binding in AGENTS.md): the em-dash character is banned outright (restructured, not blind-replaced), plus the banned word/phrase list (delve, leverage, robust, seamless, truly, unlock, etc.). 0 em-dashes remain in modules + capstone; the only "robust" left is the planted M10 ai-change.patch trap. Module H1 titles use a colon separator. All deliberate teaching devices preserved; labs compile/parse (py/sh/yaml/json); no junk. AGENTS.md updated with the hard no-slop rules.

# Review rubric: the AI reviewer's instructions
|
|
|
|
This is the committed instruction set the AI reviewer reads before it looks at a diff. It lives in
|
|
the repo on purpose: like the committed AI config from Module 5 and the skills from Module 21, a
|
|
review rubric is a durable, versioned artifact. Change how the reviewer behaves and that change
|
|
arrives as a diff in a PR, reviewable like any other.
|
|
|
|
Keep it short and opinionated. A vague rubric produces vague, noisy comments, the fastest way to
|
|
get a team to ignore the AI reviewer entirely.
|
|
|
|
## What to check, in priority order
|
|
|
|
1. **Plausibility traps (the Module 10 skill).** Code that reads correctly but does the wrong thing:
|
|
a handler that prints success without persisting, an off-by-one, a branch that silently no-ops.
|
|
This is the highest-value thing you can catch.
|
|
2. **Missing tests.** New behavior with no test in the suite (Module 13). Name the specific case.
|
|
3. **Security smells (Module 15).** Hardcoded secrets, shelling out on unsanitized input, a new
|
|
dependency that doesn't obviously exist.
|
|
4. **Correctness on edge cases.** Empty input, bad index, missing file.
|
|
5. **Style nits, last, and clearly labeled.** Only if they matter. Nits drown signal.
|
|
|
|
## How to comment
|
|
|
|
- Be specific: file, line, what's wrong, and the fix. "This could be cleaner" is useless.
|
|
- Label every comment with a severity: `blocker`, `suggestion`, or `nit`.
|
|
- You do **not** approve, request changes as a gate, or merge. You produce comments and a
|
|
recommendation. A human decides what happens.
|
|
|
|
## Output format
|
|
|
|
Return one JSON object, nothing else:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"summary": "one or two sentences on the overall state of the diff",
|
|
"recommendation": "comment | request_changes",
|
|
"comments": [
|
|
{"file": "cli.py", "line": 49, "severity": "blocker", "comment": "..."}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
