What

Why

The renovate-config presets set automerge: true + the automerge label on digest/patch/minor PRs, but Renovate cant approve its own PRs, so the required-review gate never clears. This workflow provides that approval for labeled PRs; anything labeled security is skipped and an earlier approval revoked

Everything else was already in place, verified via API: "Allow GitHub Actions to approve PRs" enabled, protect-main requires 1 approval + check/lint/test/CodeQL, allow_auto_merge on -> merges stay gated on CI, majors and security updates stay human-gated.

Related: automerge policy (labels, update types, stability window) -> opendefensecloud/renovate-config#14, reusable workflow -> opendefensecloud/dev-kit#25.

Testing

CI config only, no runnable behavior change
YAML parses clean, uses: ref resolves to the merged dev-kit workflow.

Checklist

  • Tests added/updated (not applicable, CI config only)
  • No breaking changes
  • Readable commit history (squashed and cleaned up as desired)
  • AI code review considered and comments resolved

Warning

Review limit reached

@cbrgm, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 49 minutes

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.
