Enable the review add-on in the billing tab to keep reviews running — you're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file). ⌛ How to resolve this issue?After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based credits. 🚦 How do rate limits work?CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability. For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

| excerpt: | ||
| "Sail Research raised $80M at a $450M valuation from Kleiner Perkins and Sequoia — 10x cheaper inference, persistent Sailboxes that run for days, execution telemetry that prevents silent failures. Trillions of tokens served weekly. The technology is real. But an agent running for 27 hours inside a Sailbox has no IDENTITY.md. No SOUL.md. No readable MEMORY.md that persists across deployments. Sail rebuilt the inference stack. It spent zero dollars on the identity layer. Infrastructure is what you run agents on. Identity is what makes them accountable. Outname has been running an agent with file-based identity, scheduled heartbeats, and sandboxed execution for 50 days. Sail just raised $80M. The agent it's serving tokens to still doesn't know its own name.", |

Trim the registry excerpt to a real summary.
apps/web/app/blog/page.tsx renders post.excerpt verbatim in the index card, and this value is long enough to dominate the listing instead of acting as a teaser. A 1-2 sentence summary would keep the blog index scannable and avoid duplicating most of the post in previews.

Blog #50 — Sail Research. $80M at $450M from KP and Sequoia. 10x cheaper inference, Sailboxes for days-long execution, Voyages telemetry. Angle: Sail rebuilt the entire inference stack. It spent zero on identity. No IDENTITY.md, no SOUL.md, no readable MEMORY.md. Infrastructure vs identity.
