Path-specific instructions allow you to set additional, file-specific code review conditions based on file paths. These guide Kody’s code review automation to apply specific guidelines only where they’re most relevant.

Examples:

  • Special Rules for Certain Files or Directories:

    • Projects often contain files or folders that require particular attention due to sensitivity or complexity, such as configuration files, deployment scripts, or security-related code.
    • Example: For files in config/, ensure they follow strict security checks to prevent hardcoded sensitive information.

  • Code Review Customization:

    • Tailor review practices for different code areas, ensuring specific guidelines are followed in relevant sections.
    • Example: In the api/ directory, emphasize input validation and error handling.

  • Enhancing Code Quality:

    • Example: In UI-related files, focus on accessibility and responsiveness best practices.
