What they did
Imprint made CI classify eligible pull requests with a passing small-change check. Requirements included fewer than 1,000 lines, no p1 or p2 findings from its AI code-review bot, and at least 10 prior merged PRs by the author in every affected service. A review-small-change skill verified checks and sensitive areas, then approved or ignored the PR without posting comments. A second skill reviewed PR clusters for recurring themes and missing verification.
How it went
The author reports implementing and rolling out the approach with about two days of intermittent attention.
Worth knowing
Shared libraries are ineligible, repositories can exclude sensitive paths, and the approval skill skips payments and security. Some repositories still have compliance controls requiring an independent human reviewer.
