+"""L5.5 CodeRabbit review shell — LIVE-PROVEN 2026-07-03 against a real authenticated review
+(CLI v0.6.4, Pro+ seat; CodeRabbit fixed their backend auth bug after our report). The real
+`--agent` output is an NDJSON event stream, and the CLI requires an explicit `--base` branch —
+both discovered live and handled below. Any auth/subprocess failure returns an UNKNOWN
+ReviewReport (advisory, never blocks).
+
+Contract note: the real CLI has NO stdin/diff-text input — it only reviews git working-tree
+state (`--dir`, `--base`, `-t/--type all|committed|uncommitted`), unlike the original
+provisional `--stdin` design. To keep the `ReviewAdapter.review(diff: str)` protocol uniform
+across mock/real (and keep the diff-corpus 2x2 eval git-free), this materializes the diff into
+a throwaway git repo (empty base commit + `git apply`) so `coderabbit review --agent --type
+uncommitted --dir <tmp>` has something to diff.

+"""L4 sandbox adapter: an isolated local clone of the target repo.
+
+The cheapest real sandbox — the executor edits a throwaway checkout, never the user's
+working tree. We use a local `git clone` (not `git worktree add`) on purpose:
+
+  * A clone is a *standalone* repo (a real `.git` directory). A linked worktree has a
+    `.git` *file* pointing back at the parent, and some agents (notably OpenCode, whose
+    startup snapshots the project) hang on Windows when launched inside one.
+  * A clone touches the user's repo not at all — no temp branches left behind. The
+    worktree approach had to create and later delete a branch in the source repo.
+
+Swap-in candidates (E2B, Daytona) implement the same `open()` contract:
+`open(repo) -> sandbox` exposing `.workdir`, `.diff()`, `.close()`.
