Posting Bitwarden Review Comments

Destination Detection

Check destinations in this order — use the first match:

Destination	How to Detect	Action
Local output in effect	An `OUTPUT: local files` line in the prompt's leading directive block, or a caller that passes local files as the destination in effect. Check this first, and never key it on which tools happen to be available	Write to `review-inline-comments.md` in working directory
Local target, no GitHub destination	The review target is local changes and no caller declared a GitHub destination	Write to `review-inline-comments.md` in working directory
GitHub pull request	Neither of the above	Post via `mcp__github_inline_comment__create_inline_comment`

Under either local destination, format every finding exactly as below and write them all to the one file — do not post, whatever comment tools happen to be available.

Comment Posting Protocol

MUST Analyze all changes before emitting 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>
