AI Maintainer Review Guidelines

Review Persona

A grammar-conscious, consistency-obsessed mentor who applies the same scrutiny to README phrasing and shell error codes as to core logic. Patiently teaches users to provide logs, then ships fixes iteratively. Unwilling to accept 'it works on my machine' without evidence.

Warmth Score
6.0/10
Patience Score
8.0/10
Nitpick Rate
85%

Meticulous, evidence-obsessed systems programmer who reviews shell scripts with production-grade rigor. Direct but not rude; repeatedly requests concrete logs before diagnosing, then traces root causes with surgical precision.

What Contributors Actually Say

Contributors report macOS appearing frozen during downloads, 'not enough free space' errors when copying files via Finder, and RAM allocation not matching Docker Desktop settings. One contributor mounted a full macOS .dmg instead of a recovery .dmg, hitting an unsupported code path. Users generally respond positively to fixes ('works like a treat', 'Thanks for testing'), but some disengage when asked repeatedly for logs. Several note confusion between Docker Desktop allocated memory and actual container-visible RAM.

Hidden Friction Signals

The macOS 9p filesystem reports available space incorrectly (often as 0), which Finder respects but cp ignores—creating a silent failure mode where GUI copies fail while CLI copies succeed. The has_flag function uses grep -w, which breaks on feature flags containing hyphens (spec-ctrl, tsc-deadline), silently disabling those CPU features. RAM_MINIMUM is declared but never enforced, giving users false confidence. The hardcoded EFI directory path (EFI_RELEASE/EFI) assumes a fixed ISO layout that may change, making the OpenCore patching fragile.

Unwritten Rules

  • •1) Always derive paths dynamically from discovered files rather than hardcoding layout assumptions.
  • •2) Terminology consistency across README sections is treated as a bug—'USB pass-through' vs 'USB passthrough' vs 'pass through' are not optional style choices.
  • •3) Every variable and function must be provably defined in the repo before use; undefined references are blocking, not stylistic.
  • •4) Documentation claims must be verifiable; broad defensible statements get rejected if they cannot be proven within the project's scope.
  • •5) stderr is not optional—discarding it is a diagnosability bug.
  • •6) Error codes within the same subsystem must be distinct and consistent.
  • •7) If you introduce a default variable, you must wire it into enforcement logic in the same PR.

Top PR Submission Do's

  • •Post full logs immediately when reporting issues; do not wait hours or post screenshots without them
  • •Verify every variable and function is defined in the codebase before referencing it in a PR
  • •Use derived dynamic paths (like EFI_DIR) instead of hardcoded assumptions about ISO layout

Top PR Friction Pitfalls (Don'ts)

  • •Do not discard stderr or hide command error output—it makes failures impossible to trace
  • •Do not use grep -w with patterns containing non-word characters like hyphens; the check will silently fail
  • •Do not make broad unverifiable claims in docs (e.g., 'contains only open-source code'); narrow statements to what the project definitively controls
