Summary

Implements t166: Daily CodeRabbit full codebase review pulse for self-improving aidevops.

  • review-pulse-helper.sh: New helper script that triggers CodeRabbit CLI full-repo review, parses output into structured JSON findings with severity classification and false positive filtering, and generates task descriptions for supervisor dispatch
  • review-pulse.yml: GitHub Actions workflow for daily scheduled runs (3 AM UTC) with manual trigger, findings artifact upload, and step summary
  • coderabbit.md: Updated docs with review pulse usage section

Subtasks

Subtask Description Status
t166.1 Cron/supervisor daily pulse trigger via CodeRabbit CLI Done
t166.2 Structured feedback collection into JSON format Done
t166.3 Auto-create tasks from valid findings Done

Self-Improving Loop

The review pulse ran against its own code during development and found 2 high-severity issues, both of which were fixed in this PR:

  1. Null coalescing in workflow jq - Added // 0 to prevent arithmetic errors on malformed JSON
  2. Option argument validation - Added flag-value validation to prevent --output --severity misinterpretation

Testing

  • review-pulse-helper.sh help - Shows usage
  • review-pulse-helper.sh status - Shows CLI version and history
  • review-pulse-helper.sh run --dry-run - Validates without running review
  • review-pulse-helper.sh run --severity high - Ran successfully, found 2 findings
  • review-pulse-helper.sh findings --format json - Structured JSON output
  • review-pulse-helper.sh tasks --dry-run - Task generation preview
  • ShellCheck: zero warnings

Files Changed

File Change
.agents/scripts/review-pulse-helper.sh New: main pulse script (730 lines)
.github/workflows/review-pulse.yml New: daily scheduled workflow
.agents/tools/code-review/coderabbit.md Updated: added review pulse docs

Closes #624

…uality (t166)

Implements t166 subtasks:
- t166.1: review-pulse-helper.sh - triggers CodeRabbit CLI full-repo review
  with configurable severity thresholds and dry-run mode
- t166.2: Structured feedback collection - parses CodeRabbit output into JSON
  findings with severity classification and false positive filtering
- t166.3: Auto-create task descriptions from valid findings for supervisor
  dispatch integration

Also adds:
- GitHub Actions workflow (review-pulse.yml) for daily scheduled runs at 3 AM UTC
  with manual workflow_dispatch trigger and findings artifact upload
- Updated coderabbit.md docs with review pulse usage section
- Applied CodeRabbit's own findings: jq null coalescing in workflow,
  option argument validation in helper script

Summary of Changes

Hello @marcusquinn, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request establishes a robust, automated system for continuous codebase quality improvement. By integrating daily CodeRabbit reviews with structured finding analysis and automated task generation, it aims to proactively identify and address code issues, fostering a self-improving development environment.

Highlights

  • Daily Code Review Automation: Introduced a new review-pulse-helper.sh script to automate daily full codebase reviews using the CodeRabbit CLI. This script processes review findings, classifies their severity, filters out known false positives, and generates structured JSON output.
  • Automated Task Generation: The new helper script can automatically generate actionable TODO tasks from valid CodeRabbit findings, facilitating a self-improving development loop by directly addressing identified issues.
  • GitHub Actions Integration: A new GitHub Actions workflow (review-pulse.yml) has been added to schedule the daily execution of the review pulse (at 3 AM UTC) and allows for manual triggering, ensuring continuous code quality monitoring.
  • Self-Correction Mechanism: During its own development, the review pulse identified and led to the resolution of two high-severity issues within its own code: a null coalescing problem in workflow jq and an option argument validation flaw.
  • Updated Documentation: The coderabbit.md documentation has been updated to include a dedicated section on the daily review pulse, providing usage examples and details on its functionality.
Changelog
  • .agents/scripts/review-pulse-helper.sh
    • Added new script to orchestrate daily CodeRabbit full codebase reviews.
    • Implemented logic for parsing CodeRabbit output into structured JSON findings.
    • Included severity classification and false positive filtering for review findings.
    • Developed functionality to generate TODO tasks from validated findings.
  • .agents/tools/code-review/coderabbit.md
    • Updated documentation to include a new 'Daily Review Pulse' section.
    • Provided usage examples for the review-pulse-helper.sh script.
  • .github/workflows/review-pulse.yml
    • Added new GitHub Actions workflow for daily scheduled execution of the review pulse.
    • Configured manual trigger capability for the review pulse workflow.
    • Ensured findings artifacts are uploaded and step summaries are generated.
Ignored Files
  • Ignored by pattern: .github/workflows/** (1)

Code Review

The pull request introduces a new review-pulse-helper.sh script and updates the coderabbit.md documentation to implement a daily CodeRabbit review pulse. The script automates full codebase reviews, parses findings into structured JSON, filters false positives, and generates tasks. The changes are well-documented and follow the repository's naming conventions for scripts and variables. Several jq commands were identified that could cause script termination under set -e if their input is malformed, and some file operations could be made more robust.

Appending to the HISTORY_FILE without any locking mechanism could lead to corrupted data if multiple instances of the script run simultaneously, especially if the cron job is ever triggered more frequently or manually run concurrently. Consider adding a file lock to ensure atomic writes.

Using ls to count files can be unreliable if filenames contain newlines or other special characters. A more robust approach would be to use find with -print0 and wc -l --files0-from=-.

Consider: findings_count=$(find "$FINDINGS_DIR" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-findings.json" -print0 2>/dev/null | wc -l --files0-from=- | tr -d ' ')

Using ls -t to find the latest file can be unreliable if filenames contain newlines or other special characters. A more robust approach would be to use find with -printf or stat to get the modification time.

For example:
latest_findings=$(find "$FINDINGS_DIR" -maxdepth 1 -name "*-findings.json" -printf '%T@ %p\n' 2>/dev/null | sort -n | tail -1 | cut -d' ' -f2-)
