# Review by Andrej Karpathy (Round 1)

## Review Complete — Andrej Karpathy, Round 1

VERDICT: approve

FINDINGS:
- [src/colonyos/orchestrator.py]: Repo map not injected into Decision Gate or Deliver phases — FR-15 says "all prompt-building functions" but 2 of 6 phases are skipped
- [src/colonyos/orchestrator.py]: `_run_sequential_implement` has unused `repo_map_text` parameter (dead code)
- [src/colonyos/repo_map.py]: `generate_repo_map()` ignores `config.enabled` by design (correct, but could surprise callers — documented by test)
- [src/colonyos/repo_map.py]: `truncate_to_budget` uses break-on-overflow instead of skip-and-continue, leaving potential budget slack on the table
- [src/colonyos/repo_map.py]: JS/TS regex anchored to `^` correctly enforces "top-level only" per PRD scope

SYNTHESIS:
This is a clean, well-structured module that solves the cold-start problem the right way: a deterministic, zero-dependency structural extraction pipeline that runs once per tick. The key architectural choice — programmatic injection instead of template placeholders — is correct and avoids the `str.format()` `KeyError` trap that would have hit immediately on any Python signature containing `{`. The test coverage is excellent (101 tests, ~2:1 test-to-code ratio), including real `git init` integration tests rather than just subprocess mocks. The two missing injection sites (Decision Gate, Deliver) are the only substantive gap, and they're low-impact since those phases are less exploration-dependent. The relevance ranking is appropriately simple — keyword overlap with scored tiers (path match > basename > symbol overlap) — and doesn't try to be clever with embeddings or TF-IDF, which is the right call for a static context artifact. Ship it.
