Learn Post Merge

Run this after a PR merge or after a local epic lands.

Command

metareview learn --post-merge <pr-number> --base <pre-merge-ref> [--github-pr <number>] [--session-root <path>]

Use --base for the final reviewed diff, --github-pr when the GitHub PR number differs from the merge identifier, and --session-root when the relevant coding session history is in a nonstandard location.

Workflow

1. Run the command from the repository root after confirmed merge.
2. Inspect the accepted learning log and discard log under docs/metareview/learning/.
3. Keep accepted knowledge only when it would change a future reviewer’s behavior on a similar task.
4. Commit the learning artifacts and JSONL knowledge/calibration changes with the merge follow-up work.

GitHub and session history are optional local context. Missing adapters are recorded as unavailable context rather than failing learning.

Metaswarm Contract

In a metaswarm flow:

• metareview review task-done <task-id-or-path> runs when a work unit claims done.
• metareview review epic-ready <epic-id-or-path> runs before an epic is called locally complete.
• metareview review pr-ready --base <base-ref> runs before PR push or merge readiness.
• metareview learn --post-merge <pr-number> --base <pre-merge-ref> runs after confirmed PR merge.

Post-merge learning is advisory by default. In strict mode, the caller treats a nonzero learning exit as blocking release cleanup until the run succeeds or is explicitly waived.
