From ddda1d121004bbcf573f994a00018aff044a8a82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: nehal-a2z Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 14:23:52 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/5] feat: add thin CodeRabbit config skill Route create, update, and validation requests through the official CLI so every host shares one guided implementation.
