extent analysis

TL;DR

The most likely fix is to implement upfront validation to check the PR size before consuming ultrareview credits.

Guidance

  • Investigate the session logs for both sessions to understand the crash details and identify potential size limits.
  • Consider implementing a size check before launching the ultrareview to prevent crashes and credit consumption.
  • Review the ultrareview documentation to see if there are any recommended size limits or guidelines for large PRs.
  • Reach out to the ultrareview support team to request credit restoration and provide feedback on the desired upfront validation error.

Example

No code snippet is provided as it is not clearly supported by the issue.

Notes

The issue lacks information about the exact size limits and the ultrareview implementation details, which makes it difficult to provide a definitive solution.
