So you just rubber-stamp the lazy work? What else can you do when this PR is assigned to you specifically for reviewing?
Recently I reviewed some vibe-coded stuff and sent a list of issues and suggestions to the “author,” figuring he’d read it and then go through each one with Claude until fixed.
Instead he didn’t read it at all, and just threw the whole thing at Claude Code as a big prompt. The result was… interesting!
The last place I worked for, if it happened with someone new in the company or the team, I would find a polite way to say "do your job and fix this shit" and it worked.
Some people have put me on their blacklists after these interactions, sure, but they're the exact people I don't want to work with again. The important thing here is that I've never done someone else's work for free.
I guess they just close the PR.
You tell Claude to review it and if it breaks something you blame Claude. No one can get mad at you for it because they don't want to look like luddites.
