Posting Bitwarden Review Comments
GitHub Comment Posting Protocol
-
MUST Analyze all changes before posting anything
-
MUST Use inline comments for code-specific findings
-
MUST Use the Bitwarden finding format
-
FORBIDDEN: Do NOT add "Strengths", "Highlights", or positive observations sections.
-
FORBIDDEN Do NOT post praise-only inline comments
-
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.
-
Writing "#1" creates a clickable link to issue/PR #1 (not your finding)
-
"Issue" is also wrong terminology (use "Finding")
-
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:
-
Reference specific line(s)
-
State the problem - what breaks or what's the risk?
-
Provide actionable fix (for ❌ and ⚠️)
-
Be brief yet clear
-
Use collapsed sections for comments over 5 lines
-
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.
