I wonder how a context-limited AI tool can pretend to perform automagically a code review successfully. Someone has not clear in mind what the limits of such tools are. At least I can appreciate it is read-only, but a lot of people are not so crafty and noise could always be more than signal.

Anyone who objects could approach the maintainer and offer to do the work manually instead... ?

@tinker @cwebber how do You define popular? The same way Microsoft thinks Copilot is popular?

[tinker@infosec.exchange]

@harald - popular, here tied to the word "component"

Popular component - Meaning widely adopted or found in many places.

Note to be confused by the general adjective "popular" meaning widely liked.

See definition three in screenshot.
