[Kouteki]

Description

We aim to formalize our pull request review process to ensure consistency, quality, and clarity for all contributors. This issue proposes the creation of guidelines that outline the steps, expectations, and criteria for PR reviews on this project. Everyone joining the gno.land project looking to contribute will be able to onboard faster and maintain code quality.

Acceptance criteria

  • Define Roles and Responsibilities: Outline roles in the PR process. Specify any approval requirements or permissions.

  • Timeliness and Frequency: Define expectations for the time reviewers have to respond to PRs. Suggest a process for handling unresponsive PRs or when additional reviewers are needed.
  • Feedback and Revision Process: Outline guidelines for providing constructive feedback. Define how contributors should address review comments and mark revisions as complete.
