Summary
The builder of Orange Codens, an AI code review product that hands the fixes for its findings to other AI agents which open fix pull requests, explains how a loop in which AI both reviews and fixes code can run forever and how the product’s architecture stops it: handoff only when a PR is merged, no automatic handoff from bot-authored PRs or from verify runs, no finding dispatched twice, and an escape hatch for findings a human queued. It also describes two non-convergence incidents found in end-to-end runs — fix PRs for findings in the same file blocking one another, and repeated new findings on fix PRs — and the fixes adopted, arguing that termination and bounded cost must be guaranteed by the architecture rather than by the model.
