User description

Sets up CodeAnt AI for this repository and brings the other reviewer configs
into line with it.

Why files rather than the dashboard

CodeAnt resolves configuration as inline CI parameters > .codeant/ in the
repo > dashboard settings
, with each level overriding only the fields it
defines (docs).
Checking it in makes the review policy reviewable like any other change, and
matches how .coderabbit.yaml and .greptile/ are already maintained here.

File What it does
review.json 14 rules — the invariants from AGENTS.md, scoped to the paths they govern
instructions.json 9 context entries that prevent this codebase's recurring false positives
configuration.json which analyses run, and over which files
quality_gates_conditions.json secrets, sast_rating, sca_rating
README.md what is enforced and why — CodeAnt's own guidance is to document this

Rule ids are shared with .greptile/config.json (redaction-default,
explain-never-executes, dual-reading-lexer, analyze-once-per-execution,
…) so one invariant has one name wherever it is reported.

Decisions worth a second look

  • Two analyses are off. deadcode_analysis, because this is a library —
    exported identifiers with no in-repo caller are the public API, and
    golangci-lint's unused already answers that correctly. And
    duplicatecode_analysis, because the four Query/Exec branches in
    middleware/driver.go and the six integrations/* adapters are
    deliberately parallel. Both are one word away from re-enabling.
  • Analysis scope and review scope are filtered separately. go.mod and
    go.sum stay in analysis scope — that is how SCA sees the dependency graph
    — but go.sum, package-lock.json and testdata are dropped from
    line-by-line review. include_files is left empty on purpose: setting it
    makes the exclude patterns ignored entirely.
  • The secrets gate excludes test/integration/docker-compose.yml, whose
    user, password and database are all the literal string sqlguard — fixtures
    for ephemeral local containers used by make db-up. Scoped to that one file
    so a real secret anywhere else still fails the gate.
  • No coverage gate. Coverage goes to Codecov (codecov.yml); CodeAnt
    would need its own upload step and an API token in ci.yml first, and a
    gate that cannot pass is worse than no gate.
  • No approval.json. main takes changes through PRs a human merges.

The other configs

  • .coderabbit.yaml — the middleware/driver.go instruction still described
    the old ErrSkip-only rule; it now states the full invariant.
  • .greptile/ — gains a matching analyze-once-per-execution rule and a
    worked example of the double-analysis bug, in the style of the existing
    ones.
  • AGENTS.md — records that four reviewer configs exist and that an invariant
    documented there belongs in all of them.

Ordering note

The analyze-once-per-execution rule describes analyzeExecuted and the
fakeBadConnDriver tests, which land in the #67 branch
(fix/errskip-double-analysis). The rule is correct either way — it is the
invariant, and #67 is what makes the code satisfy it — but if this merges
first, those two symbols do not exist on main yet.


CodeAnt-AI Description

Configure repository-wide AI review policies and security quality gates

What Changed

  • Adds checked-in CodeAnt configuration for security, dependency, infrastructure, maintainability, secret, and pull request reviews
  • Adds quality gates that reject new secrets and pull requests with medium-or-worse SAST or dependency findings
  • Excludes generated assets, frozen documentation snapshots, dependency lockfiles, and test fixtures from inappropriate analysis or review
  • Synchronizes CodeRabbit and Greptile guidance around analyzing each database query once, including retries and fallback execution
  • Documents shared review rules and repository conventions in AGENTS.md and .codeant/README.md

Impact

✅ Fewer duplicate query findings
✅ N+1 thresholds reflect actual query executions
✅ Pull requests blocked by leaked secrets or vulnerable dependencies

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Automated code reviews now follow repository-specific guidance and apply checks for security issues, exposed secrets, dependencies, and other code quality concerns.
    • Pull requests are subject to quality gates for detected secrets and security and dependency ratings.
  • Documentation

    • Added guidance describing analysis settings, review rules, quality gates, and repository-specific conventions.

CodeAnt reads repository configuration from .codeant/, resolving inline CI
parameters over that directory over dashboard settings. Checking it in keeps
the review policy reviewable like any other change, and matches how
.coderabbit.yaml and .greptile/ are already maintained here.

  review.json                   14 rules, ported from the invariants in
                                AGENTS.md and .greptile/config.json, with the
                                ids kept identical across tools so one
                                invariant has one name wherever it is reported
  instructions.json             9 context entries aimed at the false positives
                                this codebase reliably produces: the //nolint
                                deprecated delegations, explain's raw-Query
                                carve-out, the CLI's blank-imported drivers,
                                the exported API of a library, the throwaway
                                credentials in the test compose file
  configuration.json            analyses and file scope; deadcode and
                                duplicate-code analysis are off because
                                golangci-lint's `unused` already answers the
                                first correctly for a library, and the second
                                would report the deliberately parallel driver
                                branches and integration adapters
  quality_gates_conditions.json secrets, sast_rating and sca_rating; no
                                coverage gate, since coverage goes to Codecov
                                and CodeAnt has no upload wired here
  README.md                     what is enforced and why, per CodeAnt's own
                                guidance on documenting a config

Analysis scope and review scope are filtered separately: go.mod and go.sum
stay in analysis scope because that is how SCA sees the dependency graph, but
go.sum, package-lock.json and testdata are dropped from line-by-line review.

The other configs are brought up to date with them. .coderabbit.yaml's
middleware/driver.go instruction described the old ErrSkip-only rule;
.greptile gains a matching analyze-once-per-execution rule and a worked
example of the double-analysis bug. AGENTS.md now records that four reviewer
configs exist and that an invariant belongs in all of them.

Walkthrough

The pull request adds CodeAnt analysis and review settings, quality gates, and repository-specific instructions. It also updates CodeRabbit and Greptile guidance on driver analysis timing and documents how reviewer configuration sources relate.

Changes

AI reviewer configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
CodeAnt analysis and review settings
.codeant/*
CodeAnt configuration defines enabled analyses, file filters, quality gates, and review rules. Instructions and the README describe repository-specific guidance and settings.
Driver analysis and cross-reviewer guidance
.coderabbit.yaml, .greptile/config.json, .greptile/rules.md, AGENTS.md
Reviewer guidance specifies argument conversion and base-driver call ordering, and says to skip analysis for driver.ErrSkip and driver.ErrBadConn. The Greptile rules describe retry and fallback cases. AGENTS.md describes keeping reviewer invariants consistent.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0dbe6

This change touches only reviewer configuration and documentation, so it cannot affect runtime behavior. The secrets check does not scan the integration docker-compose file, so a real credential added there later would not be caught. The Greptile guidance also describes a driver fix that has not landed yet. Both are quick fixes and are worth addressing before or shortly after merge.

1. The parser rule uses a different identifier from Greptile's equivalent rule, contradicting the claim that shared invariants have one name across every tool.

Keep real secrets in the fixture file within the gate.

If a contributor adds a real token to test/integration/docker-compose.yml, this file-wide exclusion prevents the secrets condition from blocking that change. The fixture instruction exempts only the known sqlguard credentials. Remove the file-wide exclusion and handle those fixture values without exempting future contents of the file. CodeAnt applies exclude_files to the gate check. (docs.codeant.ai)

**An invariant documented here belongs in all of them.** Each config is the
same knowledge aimed at a different reviewer, so a new invariant — or a
correction to one — is only half-landed if it lives in one file. Rule ids are
deliberately shared across `.greptile/config.json` and `.codeant/review.json`
(`redaction-default`, `explain-never-executes`, `analyze-once-per-execution`,
…) so one invariant has one name wherever it is reported. The same applies in

Add the analyze-once-per-execution invariant to AGENTS.md.

“All of them” covers the four reviewer guidance sources: .coderabbit.yaml, .greptile/, .codeant/, and AGENTS.md itself. The other reviewer sources document this invariant, but AGENTS.md only names its rule ID. Add that middleware/driver.go must analyze after the base call and must not analyze attempts returning driver.ErrSkip or driver.ErrBadConn. If #67 has not merged, state that the implementation is pending.

CodeAnt, major: the parser rule listed parsers/**, fallback.go, parser.go and
statement.go but not analyzer/analyzer.go, which is where Analyze degrades to
the FallbackParser when a configured parser errors - the exact behaviour the
rule exists to protect. Added it.

CodeAnt, nitpick: the same rule was named
parser-parity-and-never-break-the-query-path while .greptile called its
equivalent parser-never-breaks-query-path, which made the README's claim that
shared invariants carry one name across tools untrue. Renamed to match, and
gave .greptile's rule the parity half it was missing (a dialect parser may
only remove findings, and a statement kind the grammar learns the fallback
has to learn too) so the shared id now names the same rule in both.

CodeRabbit, minor: .greptile/rules.md described the driver fix in the present
tense while middleware/driver.go still analyzes before the base call. The
worked example now says the fix lands in #67.

Not addressed: CodeRabbit's suggestion to add the analyze-once-per-execution
invariant to AGENTS.md. It is already there on fix/errskip-double-analysis,
in the Architecture section next to the driver paragraph it belongs to;
adding it here would conflict with that branch.
The section already opens with "(issue #67)", so saying the fix lands there
added a tense that only reads correctly until #67 merges. The worked example
describes the invariant and the bug behind it; that is what the file is for.
