Documents the owner policy (2026-11-09): fleet work lands as one PR per change, self-merged once the required checks are green, because main has a PR-requiring ruleset. Contributor and fork PRs keep the Review gate. Docs only.

Walkthrough

CLAUDE.md adds landing requirements for fleet PRs and clarifies that the review gate applies to outside-contributor and fork PRs.

Changes: Landing policy

Layer / File(s) Summary
Fleet landing rules
CLAUDE.md
The policy specifies fleet PR requirements for issue references, commit size, checks, squash merging, and post-merge CI monitoring. It directs outside-contributor and fork PRs to the review gate.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Other

Suggested labels: type/chore

Merge Risk: Low · up to f6cd7

This docs-only policy change has no runtime impact. The landing policy should state that later changes to a PR also need review before self-merge; a small wording edit fixes this.

Explanation

No eligible functions found in the changed files. Skipping docstring coverage check. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 0 functions across 0 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title says fleet work lands by direct commits to main, but the change documents one PR per change followed by a self-merge after required checks pass. The title misrepresents the documented policy.

Resolution

Retitle the PR to state that fleet work is self-merged through one PR per change after required checks pass.

Require review of the final changes.

A follow-up commit or conflict resolution can change the PR after these passes. The policy then permits merging without reviewing those changes. --match-head-commit checks the supplied SHA, but does not establish that the reviewer examined it. (cli.github.com)

Require review of subsequent changes and tie the reviewed tree to the merged head.

Clarify the commit limit for squash merges.

Two PR commits can each change 300 lines, while their squash commit changes 600 lines. The required squash merge would then violate the stated limit for every commit. (docs.github.com)

Specify whether the limit applies only to PR branch commits or also to the landed commit.

APPROVE @ f6cd7b7 by claude-nibblets

Docs-only (CLAUDE.md, +24/-0). I checked the text against the repo's actual ruleset (gh api repos/<repo>/rules/branches/main): it requires a PR with 0 approvals and the status checks CI Success and Run pre-commit hooks, matching step 3; the "Review gate" section is kept and now applies to outside-contributor and fork PRs only.

Non-blocking: unlike go, the cli ruleset allows squash, merge and rebase (allowed_merge_methods is all three) and does not require resolved review threads (required_review_thread_resolution is false). Step 3's "Squash only; review threads resolved" is therefore a house convention here, not a repo rule; that is fine as long as nobody reads it as enforced, so you may want to say "by convention" for cli.

CI at this head: 9 pass, 1 pending, 2 skipping when I looked; mergeStateStatus BLOCKED on the pending check.
