Code Review

Quick start

Understand the change goal (read PR description or ask).
Read the diff in logical chunks (not only file order).
Apply the checklist below.
Report findings by severity with file/line references when possible.

Review checklist

Correctness — Logic handles happy path and edge cases
Security — No injection, auth bypass, secret leakage, unsafe deserialization
API/contracts — Public surfaces backward-compatible unless versioned
Performance — No obvious N+1, unbounded memory, or hot-path regressions
Maintainability — Clear names, focused functions, matches project style
Tests — Behavior covered; tests assert outcomes not implementation details
Docs — User-facing changes documented
