- Its published evaluation reports agreement on 6 of 10 hand-labelled external pull requests, with misses included.
Field notes
The example report follows a changed greet(name) signature to a README section that still documents the old API. The setup shown pins a GitHub Action version and requests contents: read and pull-requests: write permissions; the site also says findings do not fail the build. Its published evaluation covers ten hand-labelled external pull requests, and the project says it publishes misses.
