SPRR: Single PR Reviewer

Review one pull request that adds entries to README.md.

Hard Rules

1. Review only the PR number the user requested. If no PR number is given, ask for one.
2. Use GitHub MCP tools for PR operations. Do not use gh for PR review, comments, labels, closing, or merging.
3. Do not modify the PR until the user explicitly approves that action.
4. Always present findings before asking whether to comment, label, close, or merge.
5. Always ask before merging.
6. Enforce CONTRIBUTING.md and AGENTS.md strictly for new entries.

If GitHub MCP tools are unavailable, report that PR operations are blocked and point the user to docs/codex-setup.md.

Workflow

1. Fetch PR details, current head SHA, files changed, labels, comments, and diff with GitHub MCP.
2. Confirm whether the reviewed label or prior maintainer comments exist, then proceed with full validation anyway.
3. Fetch the latest Validate PR workflow/check attempt for the current head SHA and apply the CI evidence rules below.
4. Focus on added lines in README.md. Flag any other changed files as unusual for a normal contribution.
5. When mechanical validation is not established by current-head CI, save or reconstruct the PR diff locally only if needed, then validate added README entries with:

uv run python scripts/validate_readme.py --diff-from <base-ref>

If a base ref is not locally available, apply the same checks manually from the fetched diff.

CI Evidence Rules

Use only the latest attempt whose commit SHA exactly matches the PR's current head SHA. A newer queued or pending attempt supersedes an older successful attempt for the same SHA.

Current-head result	Review behavior
success	Accept parser format, tag syntax, separators, the required final period, HTTPS, GitHub-link syntax, recognized section, and base-README duplicate checks as passed. Do not rerun those mechanical checks.
failure	Inspect the failing job or step. Return NEEDS CHANGES when validation failed; if another step failed or details are unavailable, reproduce mechanical validation before deciding.
queued, pending, awaiting approval	Report the review as incomplete and do not return APPROVE.
skipped, cancelled, missing	Treat mechanical validation as unverified and reproduce it before deciding.
success on an older SHA	Ignore it and evaluate the current SHA using these rules.

CI never replaces inspection of the diff or the manual checks below. A successful check confirms only mechanical rules; it does not establish tag meaning or concision, description quality, relevance, semantic section suitability, commercial classification, repository quality, commercial free-tier eligibility or transparency, URL tracking, cross-PR uniqueness, or multi-project relatedness. CI cannot establish any of these manual criteria. Search open PRs and PRs closed within the last 365 days for duplicate names and URLs.

Validation Checklist

For every added entry:

• It matches ^\s*- \[(.*)\]\((.*)\) - (.*)$.
• New non-commercial entries include one or more backtick tags followed by -. Treat these as a compact tag cloud: accept concise languages, runtimes, protocols, interfaces, data types, and domain terms.
• Separate concepts use adjacent tags, such as `Python` `C++` `MCP`; do not reject a tag merely because it is not a programming language.
• Description ends with a period before optional [GitHub](...).
• URLs use https://.
• Optional GitHub link uses [GitHub](https://github.com/owner/repo).
• Section placement matches the project's purpose.
• Distinguish repositories containing substantive implementation from thin SDK, integration, examples, generated-data, or marketing repositories.
• Hosted proprietary products without substantive public source are under Commercial & Proprietary Services, even when a thin repository exists.
• For repository-less commercial entries, verify a useful permanent free tier for quantitative finance that requires no payment information and is not a trial, demo, or waitlist.
• Treat a commercial service with only a thin SDK, integration, examples, generated-data, or marketing repository as repository-less for every eligibility check.
• Verify that these commercial entries publish pricing and free-tier limits plus public documentation, methodology, or usage examples; use a stable HTTPS URL without affiliate or tracking parameters; and have a concise, factual, non-promotional description.
• Project name and URLs are not duplicates of existing README entries.
• Any verifiable GitHub repository mentioned as the main URL or exact [GitHub](...) suffix is a strong positive relevance signal.
• GitHub projects are checked for source availability, activity, archived status, documentation, and community evidence. GitHub relevance does not waive duplicate, format, or quality checks.
• Multiple projects in one PR are closely related and explained in the PR body.

Verdicts

Use these verdicts:

• APPROVE: entry is ready to merge.
• Commercial submissions without a qualifying permanent free tier—including paid-only, trial-only, demo-only, and waitlist-only offerings—are REJECT.
• Reserve NEEDS CHANGES for correctable evidence or disclosure, wording, URL, documentation, or placement defects when the underlying offering can qualify.
• Other REJECT cases include duplicates, unrelated multi-project PRs, empty PR descriptions, archived or abandoned projects, and other hard rejections.

Output Shape

Report:

PR #<number>: <title>
Author: <author>
Prior review: YES/NO
Files changed: <files>
Entries reviewed: <count>

Automated validation:
- Validate PR: PASS | FAIL | PENDING | UNVERIFIED
- Commit: <checked-sha> (CURRENT | STALE)
- Mechanical checks: accepted from CI | reproduced manually | incomplete

Findings:
- <entry>: <status and reason>

Verdict: APPROVE | NEEDS CHANGES | REJECT
Recommended action: <merge/comment/close/no action>

Then ask for explicit approval before doing the recommended action.

Approved Actions After User Consent

• If approved and user says to merge: merge with squash unless user requests otherwise.
• If needs changes and user says to comment: leave one concise comment with all requested fixes, then add reviewed if available.
• If rejected and user says to close: leave a polite rejection comment and close the PR.
