Review Conventions

1. Review Range

• Review pull requests against the target branch full diff, such as origin/1.7...HEAD.
• Do not limit review to the latest commit unless the user explicitly asks for an incremental review.

2. Repository Rules

• Check new production and test classes against the Java-first rule in coding-conventions.md and testing.md.
• Check new public class, public method, and test method docs against the documentation rules in coding-conventions.md and testing.md.
• Check AutoMQ changes inside existing Kafka source files for narrow // AutoMQ inject start and // AutoMQ inject end markers.

3. Verification

• Before claiming an AutoMQ coding task is done, confirm the required local gate from testing.md has passed.
• Treat CI failures as review feedback: reproduce or inspect the failing gate, fix the cause, and rerun the relevant local command before handing off.
