Expand CodeRabbit config for full auto-review and finishing touches (LS-4124) by brandonmarshal · Pull Request #57 · lightspeedwp/ls-theme

brandonmarshal · 2026-09-14T09:17:24Z

Summary

Extends .coderabbit.yml so every PR gets an automatic CodeRabbit review — including PRs in a stacked chain — and turns on the optional finishing-touches and static-analysis features the base config wasn't using.

Auto-review coverage

Widened auto_review.base_branches to include feature/* and fix/* alongside main/develop. Previously only PRs targeting main/develop triggered a review; a stacked PR (e.g. the LS-3229 icon-block batch chain, based on a prior feature branch rather than develop) would have been silently skipped.
Enabled auto_incremental_review so pushes to an already-reviewed PR trigger a fresh incremental pass rather than only the initial review.

Review quality

Added path_filters to exclude node_modules/**, vendor/**, and assets/css/*.map from review scope.
Enabled assess_linked_issues, related_issues, and related_prs so review context pulls in linked Linear/GitHub issues and related PRs.
Enabled tools.eslint, tools.markdownlint, tools.gitleaks, and tools.trufflehog — lint and secret-scanning integrations that were previously off.
Set profile: assertive (from the implicit chill default) and enabled request_changes_workflow so unresolved findings block approval instead of only commenting.
Added knowledge_base.code_guidelines, pointed at AGENTS.md, so review reasoning is grounded in this repo's own AI-agent guidance file.

Finishing touches

Enabled finishing_touches.autofix, docstrings, and unit_tests. These are invoked manually per PR (checkbox or @coderabbitai command) — enabling them in config doesn't change automatic review behavior or cost.

Not changed

Existing path_instructions and review_checklist entries left untouched — no evidence they need updating for this change.
Did not add update/* or hotfix/* to base_branches — this repo's branches only use feature/* and fix/* (confirmed via git branch -a).

Test plan

Manually reviewed the full .coderabbit.yml diff for consistent 2-space YAML indentation and correct nesting under reviews:
Confirmed feature/*/fix/* are this repo's actual branch prefixes via git branch -a (no update/* or hotfix/* branches exist)
No automated YAML lint/schema-validation script exists in this repo's package.json to run against this file
Live confirmation that CodeRabbit auto-reviews this PR — pending confirmation that the GitHub App still has repository access (raised separately with Warwick)

Closes LS-4124

…LS-4124) Auto-review coverage - Widen base_branches to include feature/* and fix/* so stacked PRs get reviewed, not just PRs into main/develop - Enable auto_incremental_review to re-review on each push Review quality - Add path_filters to exclude node_modules, vendor, and CSS map files - Enable assess_linked_issues, related_issues, related_prs - Enable tools: eslint, markdownlint, gitleaks, trufflehog - Point knowledge_base.code_guidelines at AGENTS.md - Set profile to assertive and enable request_changes_workflow Finishing touches - Enable finishing_touches.autofix, docstrings, unit_tests (invoked manually per PR, no automatic usage cost) Context - Restores/extends prior working auto-review setup; reviews had stopped firing, likely a GitHub App/dashboard access issue outside this config, to be confirmed by an org admin
