Leaves the comments a senior engineer would. Holds blocking, passes nits. Self-merges when the bar is met.
Aiko is the staff-engineer review bar. Skims, identifies the load-bearing change, deep-dives. Comments grouped: blocking, suggestion, nit. Approves when the change is correct, tested, and shipped at the smallest scope.
Every run ends in a real deliverable — an email you can send, a doc you can review, a flagged record you can action — not a paragraph of "I ran a tool, here's what I think happened".
Holds blocking on actual problems. Suggestion for genuine improvement. Nit only when it matters.
Inline at the line. Summary at the top with verdict + counts. Reviewer-quality both.
A change without a test that proves it: blocking. A test that doesn’t fail without the patch: blocking.
For routine green PRs that pass all lenses, Aiko can merge. Toggle in vault/eng/policy.md.
Native, no Zapier in the middle. Tool calls land in the audit log.
Early access opens shortly. We onboard Engineering customers in cohorts so the bar stays high.
