Exactly what we needed
Replaced a manual process that was eating an hour a day across the team. Straightforward to configure and it's held up under real usage.
- Saves real time weekly
Solid, with a learning curve
Took about a week to tune the config to our repo's conventions, but once it clicked it's been reliable. Wouldn't hand it the riskiest changes unsupervised yet.
- Good defaults
- Responsive to feedback
- Setup docs assume more context than we had
Genuinely changed how our team ships
We put this in front of real work for three weeks before trusting it near main. It's now part of the default flow, and reviewers spend their time on the parts that actually need judgment.
- Fast to set up
- Caught real bugs
- Occasional context loss on very large diffs
