Instructions

# Posting Bitwarden Review Comments

## GitHub Comment Posting Protocol

1. **MUST** Analyze all changes before posting anything
2. **MUST** Use inline comments for code-specific findings
3. **MUST** Use the Bitwarden finding format
4. **FORBIDDEN**: Do NOT add "Strengths", "Highlights", or positive observations sections.
5. **FORBIDDEN** Do NOT post praise-only inline comments
6. **FORBIDDEN**: Do NOT post PR metadata issues (title, description, test plan) as inline comments. These go in the summary only.

## Finding Format

**CRITICAL: Never use # followed by numbers** - GitHub will autolink it to unrelated issues/PRs.

1. Writing "#1" creates a clickable link to issue/PR #1 (not your finding)
2. "Issue" is also wrong terminology (use "Finding")
3. Use "Finding" + space + number (no # symbol); aim for under 30 words in sentence

**CORRECT FORMAT:**

- Finding 1: Memory leak detected
- Finding 2: Missing error handling

**WRONG (DO NOT USE):**

- ❌ Issue #1 (wrong term + autolink)
- ❌ #1 (autolink only)
- ❌ Issue 1 (wrong term only)

## Inline Comments

**Every inline comment MUST:**

1. Reference specific line(s)
2. State the problem - what breaks or what's the risk?
3. Provide actionable fix (for ❌ and ⚠️)
4. Be brief yet clear
5. Use collapsed sections for comments over 5 lines
6. Include both opening `<details>` AND closing `</details>` tags

**Visibility Rule:** Only severity + one-line description visible; everything else inside `<details>` tags.

### Template for long comments

```
[emoji] **[SEVERITY]**: [One-line issue description]

<details>
<summary>Details and fix</summary>

[Code example or specific fix]

[Rationale explaining why]

Reference: [docs link if applicable]
</details>
```

## Summary Output

Invoke `Skill(posting-review-summary)` for all summary formatting and posting.
