Why

CodeRabbit resolves cross-repo guideline references (owner/repo:path) only inside the reviewed repo's own GitHub org. Percy's review harness lives in browserstack/browserstack-ai-harness, so CodeRabbit reviews here have been running without our rules and reviewer rubrics.

This adds .coderabbit.yaml pointing at percy/browserstack-ai-harness-percy, a percy-org mirror of the harness, for: stack-domain-percy-cli, stack-domain-percy-web-sdks, stack-domain-percy-app-sdk.

What it sets

Key Value Why
inheritance true Keeps the org config in percy/coderabbit (auto-review, profile, path filters, Jira, title check). Without it this file would replace it.
knowledge_base.code_guidelines.filePatterns 50 entries One file per entry, ranked so CodeRabbit's 50-file-per-review cap never truncates silently.

Ranking: rules (this repo's domain stack, then stack-module-percy-shared) → *review* agents → rest of the domain stack → language and org conventions. Rules and agents that declare paths: frontmatter carry those globs as applyTo, so each applies where Claude Code applies it. Everything else is repo-wide.

Budget: 50 guideline files per review. 0 already tracked here and
auto-discovered (CLAUDE.md etc.), so 50 entries are available:
rules 12, reviewer agents 6, domain stack 32, conventions 0 — 38 lower-priority file(s) left out.

Generated by scripts/gen-coderabbit-config.mjs in the mirror. Regenerate it rather than hand-editing the list.

Before marking ready

  • The mirror seed PR is merged into percy/browserstack-ai-harness-percy main. CodeRabbit reads the mirror at its default branch, so until then every entry shows as a skipped source.
  • The CodeRabbit GitHub App is installed on percy/browserstack-ai-harness-percy.

How to verify

Mark ready for review (org config skips drafts). CodeRabbit reads .coderabbit.yaml from this PR's own branch, so this PR tests itself. Under Review details:

  • the configuration source names this repo's file plus percy/coderabbit
  • Additional context used lists the percy/browserstack-ai-harness-percy:stacks/... files
  • there is no Skipped guideline sources block

Jira: PER-10938

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated project review settings to inherit shared guidance from other repositories.
    • Added guidance for multiple technical areas, with some rules limited to relevant parts of the project and others applying project-wide.
    • Added reviewer-role guidance and documented how the settings are generated, inherited, and kept within the stated file limit.

Adds .coderabbit.yaml so CodeRabbit reviews read this repo's harness rules,
reviewer agents and review knowledge from percy/browserstack-ai-harness-percy,
the percy-org mirror of browserstack/browserstack-ai-harness. CodeRabbit only
resolves cross-repo guideline references inside the reviewed repo's own org.

inheritance: true keeps the org config in percy/coderabbit. Generated by
scripts/gen-coderabbit-config.mjs in the mirror; regenerate, don't hand-edit.

percy/browserstack-ai-harness-percy agent so it matches only its target CLI
files, and scope the other domain agents and guidance to their respective files
as well; retain ** only for guidance shared across all three domains.

26-26: 🎯 Functional Correctness

The configuration documents that CodeRabbit reads these cross-repository files from the mirror’s default branch, but the inspected source establishes neither an unresolved reference nor a requirement to report a resolution check before merge. The supplied evidence does not include the PR description or a review showing whether the guidelines loaded. The proposed pre-merge check is therefore an unsupported validation request, not an established defect.
