From f8d4477e8db5f67539a27ab109a4fd0f7c5e4d81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kadir Eren Altintas Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2026 02:38:30 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] Fix critic false-negative on findings the diff claims are intentional PR #57 (test/webhook-e2e-review-check) exercised a real, deliberately introduced bug in format_summary_body(): the "Published inline" and "Summary-only" counts are swapped. The reviewer correctly proposed the finding (evidence, reasoning, and impact were all accurate), but the critic rejected it, reasoning that the comment directly above the bug ("intentionally swapped... do not fix") proved the behavior was not a defect. Reproduced against the real production diff (merge-base bd25117 vs head b82d279) with a real reviewer+critic run: candidate=1, accepted=0, rejected=1, matching the reported production shape exactly. The rejection is a false negative -- the critic's own system prompt already says everything in the diff is untrusted data, but nothing in it named this specific pattern (a claim of intent, as opposed to an impersonated system instruction), so the critic treated "the author says this is deliberate" as proof the output is correct. Deliberateness and correctness are different questions; a bug introduced on purpose is still a bug. - patchfrog/review/prompt.py: add an explicit critic-prompt rule that a comment/commit message claiming code is intentional, a test fixture, or "do not fix" is untrusted data, not evidence of correctness -- the critic must judge the finding against what the code does, not against the diff's own claim about why it exists. Existing reject criteria are unchanged; no threshold was lowered. - patchfrog/review/domain.py, schemas.py, critic.py: add CriticRejectionCategory, a machine-classified reject reason the critic now returns in its own structured response (mirroring the existing ValidationOutcome pattern -- never inferred from reasoning_summary prose after the fact). - patchfrog/persistence/models/review.py, repositories/critic_verdict.py, migrations/versions/0031_*: persist rejection_category on critic_verdicts (nullable, additive). - patchfrog/review/service.py: one structured "finding_candidate_diagnostics" log line per proposal (finding id, category, reviewer confidence, evidence-entry count, critic decision, rejection category) -- never the prompt, a provider response, a secret, or source content. - tests/fixtures/evaluation/cases/py-claimed-intentional-swapped-counts: regression fixture reproducing the pattern for patchfrog.evaluation. - tests/unit/test_review_critic.py, test_review_prompt_injection.py: cover rejection_category parsing/schema and the new prompt guardrail. --- .../0031_critic_rejection_category.py | 28 ++++++++ patchfrog/persistence/models/review.py | 9 +++ .../repositories/critic_verdict.py | 1 + patchfrog/review/critic.py | 3 + patchfrog/review/domain.py | 27 +++++++- patchfrog/review/prompt.py | 19 ++++++ patchfrog/review/schemas.py | 14 +++- patchfrog/review/service.py | 66 ++++++++++++++++++- .../case.yaml | 45 +++++++++++++ .../repo/src/summary.py | 8 +++ tests/unit/test_review_critic.py | 36 ++++++++++ tests/unit/test_review_prompt_injection.py | 27 +++++++- 12 files changed, 276 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) create mode 100644 migrations/versions/0031_critic_rejection_category.py create mode 100644 tests/fixtures/evaluation/cases/py-claimed-intentional-swapped-counts/case.yaml create mode 100644 tests/fixtures/evaluation/cases/py-claimed-intentional-swapped-counts/repo/src/summary.py diff --git a/migrations/versions/0031_critic_rejection_category.py b/migrations/versions/0031_critic_rejection_category.py new file mode 100644 index 0000000..22ca534 --- /dev/null +++ b/migrations/versions/0031_critic_rejection_category.py @@ -0,0 +1,28 @@ +"""Add nullable rejection_category column to critic_verdicts + +Revision ID: 0031_critic_rejection_category +Revises: 0030_repository_learning_records +Create Date: 2026-09-21 + +""" +from __future__ import annotations + +from collections.abc import Sequence + +import sqlalchemy as sa +from alembic import op + +revision: str = "0031_critic_rejection_category" +down_revision: str | None = "0030_repository_learning_records" +branch_labels: Sequence[str] | None = None +depends_on: Sequence[str] | None = None + + +def upgrade() -> None: + op.add_column( + "critic_verdicts", sa.Column("rejection_category", sa.String(length=32), nullable=True) + ) + + +def downgrade() -> None: + op.drop_column("critic_verdicts", "rejection_category") diff --git a/patchfrog/persistence/models/review.py b/patchfrog/persistence/models/review.py index 665afdb..30b09a7 100644 --- a/patchfrog/persistence/models/review.py +++ b/patchfrog/persistence/models/review.py @@ -43,6 +43,7 @@ from patchfrog.review.agents.roles import AgentRole from patchfrog.review.domain import ( CriticDecision, + CriticRejectionCategory, ProposalStatus, ReviewCandidateReason, ReviewRunStatus, @@ -464,6 +465,14 @@ class CriticVerdictModel(Base): downgraded_confidence: Mapped[Confidence | None] = mapped_column( enum_column(Confidence, length=16), nullable=True ) + #: Machine-classified reason for a ``REJECT`` verdict -- see + #: :class:`patchfrog.review.domain.CriticRejectionCategory`.
