A reviewer (#1276). One approval per person for the item’s current revision; asking twice is one. The verdict that approves (PATCH /v1/review-items/{id}) asks for approvalsRequired of them when the project’s policy says so (409 with the count when short). The author cannot approve their own item as a reviewer (409). When the project’s auto-merge is on and the approvals asked for stand on the current version with nothing blocking, this approval is also the verdict: the item is approved as the person who gave it, and the log and the author’s notification say it was automatic (#1277).

id

string format: uuid

The item with its approvals

Media type application/json

One entry of the review queue. Always starts pending; a reviewer moves it on.

integer
Allowed values: 1
id
required
string format: uuid
resultId

Present on an entry disputing a RESULT. Exactly one of resultId, proposedCase and discoveredTest is present: an entry with two asks two questions at once, and one with none asks nothing.

string format: uuid
proposedCase

Present on an entry proposing a new case. Mutually exclusive with the other two.

Content-derived identity; the dedup key.

What the pre-review checks found, written before the proposal was queued (#1289). It marks the proposal. Only placeholder stops anything: a proposal whose title, steps or expected result still holds {{...}}, [TODO]/[TBD]/[FIXME]/[XXX] (or the same in <...>) or a run of three or more underscores cannot be approved (409 naming the places), and that check is read off the reviewer’s edited version when there is one. Absent means nothing was found.

verdict

Absent means never executed — NOT “no result yet”. blocked: no answer from the target.

string
Allowed values: passed failed blocked
externalKeys

What a match resolves through. Absent is a normal proposal, not a degraded one: an agent that names no key gets an entry with no comparison, which is exactly what a genuinely new case gets.

Array<object>
<= 32 items

An identifier another tool already uses for this test, so a report can find its case without anyone typing a Plune id. The order of kind is load-bearing: it is the ranking that decides which key wins when several match different cases.

editedCase

The reviewer’s corrected version of the proposal (#1878), beside proposedCase, which stays what the agent said. Present only after an edit; approving the item makes the case from it. Left off the page of the listing (editedBy and editedAt stay).

editedBy

The user id of whoever saved the version in editedCase.

string
editedAt

When editedCase was saved.

string format: date-time
discoveredTest

Present on an entry reporting a test the caller RUNS and this project has no case for. Mutually exclusive with the other two.

object
keys
required

The identity. Order does not matter — the server ranks them and the highest-ranked kind is what deduplication reads, so two adapters sending the same keys in a different order do not produce two entries about one test.

Array<object>
>= 1 items <= 8 items

An identifier another tool already uses for this test, so a report can find its case without anyone typing a Plune id. The order of kind is load-bearing: it is the ranking that decides which key wins when several match different cases.

source
required

The reporter that found it, e.g. playwright.

string
<= 32 characters
specRef
required

Where the test lives, e.g. e2e/checkout.spec.ts:12. Required while everything descriptive is optional: an approved discovery becomes an automated case, and that shape needs a spec to point at.

string
<= 400 characters
rawStatus

What it did on this run, in the reporter’ own word.

string
<= 64 characters
platformRunId

The run that turned it up, once stored.

string
state
required

changes_requested (#1276): a reviewer asked the author for changes (changeRequest says what). It is the item’s own state, not a mark on a reviewer: it cannot be approved until the author re-submits, which puts the item back to pending.

string
Allowed values: pending changes_requested approved rejected
revision

Raised by every re-submission; absent is 1. An approval counts only for the revision it was given on.

integer
>= 1
reviewers

The user ids asked to review the item - the project’s default reviewer, when they could be asked.

Array<string>
defaultReviewerSkipped

The default reviewer who was NOT asked because they no longer have the right to review - the list says who was passed over.

string
approvals

Who approved which revision; the policy’s approvalsRequired counts those of the current revision.

rejectionCategory

Present on every item rejected after R4, and absent forever on rejections stored before it — those are never migrated and must keep reading without error. An item that is pending or approved usually has none, but MAY still carry one: a rejection returned to review keeps the pair in the row as a draft, and the next move to rejected must supply it in the request anyway. Read it as “meaningful only while state is rejected”, not as “absent otherwise”.
