Optional `model` input. Defaults move to the mid tiers, `claude-sonnet-5` and `gpt-5.6-terra`, since a run follows a fixed template plus the project's checks; a workflow can still pass a bigger model.

+the comment history below as intended or a false alarm, once the code or docs
+make that clear. When the verdict is not `Yes`, the second line names what must

+The review must read at a glance: everything outside `<details>` blocks totals
+under 512 bytes. Only core information stays visible: the verdict, the summary
+line, and the section headings. Anything verbose goes into a `<details>` block
+whose `<summary>` is a few words, such as the `file:line` and title of an issue
+with the what, why, and how inside; the same for each strength, each
+recommendation, the reasoning, and any compliance notes. Details blocks are
+top-level, never inside a list item, because Gitea breaks them there.
 
 For an `issue_comment` or `pull_request_review_comment` event, treat the `body`
 in the triggering comment payload below as the user's exact instruction.
