File-Level Changes

Change Details Files
Introduce a Gandalf AI automation script that forks the repo, creates branches per issue, heuristically selects Rust files, appends issue-specific comments, and auto-opens PRs via the GitHub CLI.
  • Add gandalf_botti.py that wraps gh CLI commands for forking AppFlowy, configuring a fork remote, and creating per-issue branches
  • Implement naive Rust file selection based on matching issue title words or falling back to the first Rust file found
  • Modify the selected file by appending a comment marker referencing the issue title instead of performing actual code edits
  • Stage changes, commit with a standardized message, push to the fork, and auto-create a PR against the main repository for each listed issue
gandalf_botti.py
Add Gandalf/AI-related comments to multiple Rust library and test files without changing executable logic.
  • Append informational or placeholder comments referencing various issues and feature requests to Rust integration and test files
  • Leave existing Rust implementations and behavior untouched aside from comment additions
  • Avoid any structural or logic modifications in these Rust modules
frontend/rust-lib/collab-integrate/src/collab_builder.rs
frontend/rust-lib/event-integration-test/src/chat_event.rs

frontend/rust-lib/event-integration-test/src/database_event.rs
frontend/rust-lib/flowy-document/tests/file_storage.rs
frontend/rust-lib/flowy-core/src/folder_view_observer.rs
Make minor documentation and repo metadata adjustments without substantive content.
  • Add empty or whitespace-only lines to README.md after the acknowledgements list
  • Introduce an otherwise empty CONTRIBUTING.md file as a placeholder
  • Preserve all existing documentation content unchanged

Hey - I've found 2 security issues, 1 other issue, and left some high level feedback:

Security issues:

  • Detected subprocess function 'check_output' without a static string. If this data can be controlled by a malicious actor, it may be an instance of command injection. Audit the use of this call to ensure it is not controllable by an external resource. You may consider using 'shlex.escape()'. (link)
  • Found 'subprocess' function 'check_output' with 'shell=True'. This is dangerous because this call will spawn the command using a shell process. Doing so propagates current shell settings and variables, which makes it much easier for a malicious actor to execute commands. Use 'shell=False' instead. (link)

General comments:

  • The changes in this PR don’t appear to implement the titled bug fix (mobile self‑hosted connection) and instead mainly add comments and an automation script; please align the code changes with the PR’s stated purpose or retitle/scope it appropriately.
  • The added gandalf_botti.py script performs automated forking, branching, and PR creation against the main repo and doesn’t seem intended for inclusion in this project’s source; consider removing it or moving it to a separate automation/tooling repo.
  • Several added comments like // Gandalf fix for #8495 and blank lines in various Rust and Markdown files introduce noise without functional value; please remove these and keep only meaningful, project‑related changes.

<issue_to_address>
**issue:** Appending a generic "Fixed by Gandalf AI" comment to source files is likely to create noisy, low-signal diffs and unintended churn.

Because `get_ai_fix` currently returns `None`, this will still rewrite the file and add the comment even when no real fix is produced, creating commits that appear to fix issues but only add this line. That’s misleading for reviewers and harms history. Consider only touching the file when an actual fix is generated, and keep automation metadata in commit messages or PR descriptions instead of embedding it in source files.
