fix(diff): make per-file analysis errors advisory - #261
Conversation
Emit structured analysis diagnostics without failing the whole diff by default, preserve valid metrics and thresholds from other files, and add opt-in strict gating for the CLI and GitHub Action.

WalkthroughThe diff engine records structured analysis diagnostics and reports them in JSON and Markdown. Error and fatal diagnostics make static metrics unavailable only for the affected side. Diagnostics remain advisory by default. The Poem
Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR makes per-file analysis failures advisory while preserving strict opt-in failure; mergeability is otherwise intact, but the user-facing explanation of unavailable metrics should clarify that warning-only analyzer or decoder conditions can also make a metric side unavailable. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)
✅ Passed checks (4 passed)
Full details: Docstring CoverageExplanation Docstring coverage is 68.75% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff.

Link diagnostics to the revisions actually diffed
When a workflow sets the documented from or to inputs, buildDiffArgs analyzes those explicit refs, but this always links diagnostics using the pull-request event's base/head SHAs. The diagnostic table can therefore send users to different file contents—or a missing path—than the side that produced the diagnostic. Resolve the configured refs for these links, or carry the actual analyzed revisions into the rendering context.

On wharflab/tally#999, one Go 1.27 generic method is not yet accepted by the pinned
tree-sitter-gogrammar. That single-file parser diagnostic caused the entire Mehen Action to fail before publishing its useful report.With this change, the same comparison exits successfully by default and reports
