The AI Code Review Policy Template for Engineering Teams

Short summary

This post provides a copy-paste AI code review policy template covering four sections: a deterministic technical gate (BrassCoders scanner), human review requirements, secrets handling, and an escalation path for contested findings. It addresses the calibration gap where human reviewers struggle to catch AI-generated code failure modes that differ structurally from human errors. The template includes severity handling tables, audit artifact specifications, and override procedures, though it carries significant BrassCoders product promotion.
