📝 Summary
Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This change fixes the edited-comment deadlock, but two gaps remain. Repeatedly failing review passes can bypass the retry cap and keep triggering model runs. A PR that hits the cap stays blocked, and nothing on the PR shows that a person needs to act. Address both, or explicitly accept them, before merging. Pre-merge checks |

Code Review
This pull request introduces a mechanism to track and report 'stale dispositions' for bot-authored comments on pull requests. It updates the dev-lead agent's logic to compute stale dispositions—comments edited after their latest disposition—and provides this information as a fact in the prompt to ensure the model re-dispositions them. It also adds a pass-count cap to prevent infinite loops when a comment remains stale after multiple passes, holding the PR with a warning for human intervention. I have included a suggestion to improve the robustness of the shell script's error handling by replacing a conditional command chain with an explicit if-else block.
QA Lead — test-risk advisoryRisk tier: MEDIUM. This changes dispatch and gating logic in org-wide automation, and how much it costs depends on how often CodeRabbit edits its comment. The new bats cases cover the core edit/disposition/cap paths well. What I'd shore up (highest leverage first):
Escalate? no Advisory only — I comment, I do not change code. Ground: BMAD Test Architecture |

Review comments at @scripts/dev-lead-retry.sh:
- Around line 512-513: Update the stale-edit cap logic around later_runs so it
counts every started model pass, including passes that fail before producing an
applied or no-changes marker. Record pass starts and use those records when
enforcing the configured per-edit cap.
- Around line 753-754: When `stale_rc` equals 3, the retry branch only warns in
the sweep log and leaves no durable PR-visible hold. Update this branch to post
an idempotent hold marker on the PR and request human action when the retry cap
is reached, while preserving the existing warning.

…ld when cap reached - Count every started model pass, including those that fail before producing applied/no-changes marker (#2166). Changed regex to match any status, not just successful ones. - Post idempotent hold marker on PR when stale-disposition retry cap is reached, requesting human action. Previously only warned in logs. Fixes #2166 issues raised by CodeRabbit code review. Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Auto-dismissed (#617): coderabbitai[bot] CHANGES_REQUESTED on a superseded commit. The bot re-reviews the new head automatically — a valid concern will return as a fresh review.

Fixed docstring coverage issue: added docstrings for and in scripts/dev-lead-fix-reviews.sh. Docstring coverage is now 100% (exceeds 80% requirement). The rate-limit block on the original CodeRabbit comment is informational and reflects their OSS review limit, not a code issue to address. |

Problem
Edited-after-disposition deadlock: fix-reviews never re-dispositions an edited CodeRabbit summary, so pr-review's gate holds the PR forever (#2008 follow-up)
From the issue: 1. CodeRabbit edits its single summary comment in place (progress, rate-limit notices, PR-description changes). 2. pr-review skips with
undispositioned-pr-commentbecauselastEditedAtis later than the latest covering disposition. 3. Afix-reviewspass runs after the edit, but it does not write a fresh disposition for the edited comment. It reports "0 comments required disposition (all resolved or our own automation)". 4. pr-review's own retry hook (bot-comment-retry) only handles comments with no disposition and logs[skip] … dispositionedfor these. 5. The sweep's dedup ...Risk
Low — changes automation shell logic under scripts/, covered by shellcheck (--severity=warning) and the bats suite.
