Things to check

Relies on Claude's understanding of code context; may misread subtle domain-specific norms or generate tone-deaf responses if repository culture diverges from patterns in training data. Requires explicit GitHub token scoping and monitoring to prevent accidental commits or incorrect issue assignments.
