reviewers

For each scope, you can define a list of reviewers. These are the people who are eligible to approve changes if you use require, and who will be requested to review the PR if you use request.

[[scopes]]
name = "database"
reviewers = [
    "databaseExpert1",
    "databaseExpert2",
]
paths = ["**/*/migrations/**/*"]

To re-use a list of reviewers across scopes, look at aliases.

Wildcard Reviewers

You can use "*" as a special wildcard value to accept reviews from anyone:

# Require 2 reviews from anyone
[[scopes]]
name = "general-review"
reviewers = ["*"]
require = 2
paths = ["**/*.py"]

When using wildcard reviewers:

• Anybody with permission can approve the PR
• You can mix wildcards with explicit reviewers: reviewers = ["alice", "*"]
• With mixed reviewers, only specific reviewers (not *) will be auto-requested
• Author value (author_value) only applies to explicitly listed reviewers, not those covered by *
