feat(pmf): advisory newcomer-PR auto-guide (Phase-1-lite, advisory only) #803

Description

@JSONbored

Parent epic: PMF onboarding funnel (link below). Milestone M0.

Goal

Lower the maintainer friction of accepting newcomers by auto-posting advisory guidance/review on first-time / newcomer PRs. This is a deliberately thin, advisory-only slice pulled early from the agent layer — it serves onboarding without any merge/close autonomy.

Context

Requirements / Deliverables

  • Detect first-time / newcomer authors (reuse feat(github-app): first-time-contributor-aware gating #552 logic).
  • Auto-post a welcoming, specific advisory review (anti-slop + how-to-fix + what-makes-it-merge-worthy) — never blocking, never auto-merge.
  • Per-repo opt-in; respects redaction + public-safe boundary.

Outcome

Maintainers of owned repos accept more newcomer PRs with less effort; newcomers get actionable guidance → higher funnel completion.

Depends on

#552; advisory-only (explicitly NOT #778 auto-actions).
