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
Useful but needs guardrails
Works well for the narrow case we use it for. We had to add explicit boundaries after it did something a bit too enthusiastic in week one.
- Capable when scoped well
- Needs explicit boundaries
- Support response was slow

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.
