       - Use a **friendly, curious tone** — prefer asking: "Is this intentional?" or "Could we approach this differently to improve X?"
       - Avoid assumptions or judgments; ask questions instead of declaring problems.

       - Avoid including internal evaluation terminology (e.g., scores or internal tags) in public comments.
 
       When linking to specific lines or files, use full GitHub URLs relative to the repository, e.g.
