Avoids false positives for valid env var, secret-manager, and template references while still catching unresolved prod placeholders.

| Review changed code for material performance regressions. Flag O(n²) or worse behavior in any path that processes non-trivially sized input, including request handlers, background jobs, rendering paths, and collection iteration. Flag N+1 query patterns—database or external service calls inside a loop that should be batched, joined, or preloaded. Flag repeated recomputation of deterministic values inside loops where caching, memoization, or pre-computation outside the loop would eliminate redundant work. Flag inefficient data structure choices such as linear-search arrays for membership checks where a hash set is appropriate. Flag unbounded data accumulation, missing pagination, or caches without eviction. Flag expensive synchronous work (compression, hashing, template rendering) in hot paths where it should be deferred or sampled. Report only issues that could materially degrade latency, throughput, or resource usage at realistic input sizes—ignore micro-optimizations and speculative concerns. |

Trimmed the prompt to stay within the documented 1,000-character limit without changing the performance checks it covers.

| Review all new or modified database query construction. Fail if any query is built by concatenating or interpolating user-supplied input directly into a SQL string. Use parameterized queries or prepared statements with placeholders for all external values. Reuse prepared statements for repeated queries rather than rebuilding them per call. Flag any string-building approach to query construction and require it to be replaced with parameterized equivalents before merging. | ||
| Review all new or modified database query construction. Fail if a query is built by concatenating or interpolating user-supplied or otherwise untrusted input directly into executable query text. Use parameterized queries or prepared statements with placeholders for external values. Do not flag composition from fixed, code-defined fragments or identifiers selected through a strict allowlist. Reuse prepared statements for repeated queries rather than rebuilding them per call. Pass when no untrusted value can alter query structure. |

Tightens the evidence to reduce false positives: allows safe fixed query fragments, verifies advisories against resolved versions, and reports OWASP findings in the supported summary output.

| When infrastructure-as-code templates (CloudFormation, Terraform modules, Chef cookbooks, Helm charts, Ansible roles) are modified, and functional sections of an IaC template are changed (resources, parameters, outputs, recipes, tasks, or equivalent—not comments or metadata-only fields), the template's version identifier must be incremented. Verify that the version field exists in the modified template and that its value has changed compared to the base branch. Fail if functional changes are present but the version is unchanged. Pass when the version is incremented for any functional change, or when only comments or documentation are modified. | ||
| When infrastructure-as-code templates (CloudFormation, Terraform modules, Chef cookbooks, Helm charts, Ansible roles) are modified, and functional sections of an IaC template are changed (resources, parameters, outputs, recipes, tasks, or equivalent—not comments or metadata-only fields), enforce version increments only when that template or repository already uses an explicit version field or documented versioning convention. Fail if functional changes are present but the established version is unchanged. Pass when it is incremented or only comments or documentation are modified. Mark not applicable when no version identifier or convention exists. |

Scopes version checks to repos that already have an IaC versioning convention, avoiding false failures for tools like Terraform that don’t inherently require one.

Inline comments:
In `@configs/pre-mergechecks/.coderabbit-fintech.yaml`:
- Line 9: Update the monetary-amount review rule in the changed-code check to
reject direct binary-floating-point constructors such as BigDecimal(double) and
Decimal(float), even when conversion is immediate. Require decimal-string
parsing or integer minor units with explicit currency and rounding behavior,
while preserving exemptions for display-only formatting and non-monetary
changes.
In `@configs/pre-mergechecks/.coderabbit-health-tech.yaml`:
- Line 14: Update the authorization review rule for changed API handlers,
resolvers, commands, or services to require record-level authorization when
accessing patient or clinical records: tenant scope alone is insufficient.
Verify an authenticated principal has a patient relationship, care-team role, or
explicit record policy before permitting access, while keeping public reference
data and non-record changes not applicable.
In `@configs/pre-mergechecks/.coderabbit-multi-tenant-saas.yaml`:
- Line 14: Update the cache-review rule text around the tenant-owned data
requirement to also require partitioning by every trusted authorization
dimension that affects the value, including user, role, delegated scope, or
resource permissions. Permit an explicitly shared-across-tenant value only when
that sharing is intentional and stated, while preserving the existing exceptions
for public, immutable, global, or non-cached data.
In `@configs/pre-mergechecks/.coderabbit-security.yaml`:
- Line 9: Update the database query security guidance in the review
configuration to focus only on preventing untrusted input from altering query
structure through parameterized queries or prepared statements. Remove the
unconditional requirement to reuse prepared statements, leaving statement reuse
to performance-focused checks or only requiring it for repeated execution in a
demonstrable hot path.
- Line 19: Update the dependency-security review guidance to inspect every
changed direct and resolved dependency version, including additions, upgrades,
downgrades, and transitive changes in manifests, constraints, and lock files.
