# Review by Linus Torvalds (Round 2)

## Review Complete — Linus Torvalds, Round 6

**378 tests pass. Zero regressions. All 15 functional requirements implemented. All 6 task groups complete.**

VERDICT: approve

FINDINGS:
- [src/colonyos/daemon.py:1105]: Write gate checks `dashboard_write_enabled` config only, not `COLONYOS_WRITE_ENABLED` env var (FR-13 says both). Consistent with existing daemon pattern — pre-existing design, not a regression.
- [tests/test_pr_sync.py:253]: `subprocess.run` patched globally instead of at module import site — fragile but functional.
- [src/colonyos/pr_sync.py:80]: Inline import of `QueueItemStatus` without explanatory comment for why it avoids top-level import.
- [src/colonyos/pr_sync.py:167-195]: Conflict handling block is getting long — could extract `_handle_conflict()` helper for readability.
- [src/colonyos/outcomes.py:93-107]: Schema migration does three independent ALTERs without wrapping transaction — safe in practice for SQLite but could be cleaner.

SYNTHESIS:
This is solid, straightforward code. The data structures are right: candidates come from a single SQL query ordered by staleness, the WorktreeManager provides proper isolation, and the failure counter is tracked per-PR with a clean reset-on-success semantic. The architecture is the simple, obvious thing — detect via cached API data, merge in a worktree, push, record the result. No premature abstractions, no clever tricks, no unnecessary indirection. The fix iteration addressed every material issue from the previous review rounds (duplicated store connections, full-table scans, manual worktree management, missing timeout, missing escalation). The 5 remaining findings are all non-blocking cleanup items — none affect correctness or safety. Ship it.
