Bugbot not running

[etompkins]

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

BugBot

Describe the Bug

I have created a PR in GitHub, and bugbot is not running. I have confirmed that I have the Pro version of Bugbot and Bugbot has access to my repository.

Bugbot usually runs within a few mintues of posting a PR. After 10 mintues I added the comment “bugbot run verbose=true”. Bugbut responded with the request id and then a few minutes later with another comment that it could not run. I tried this twice.

Steps to Reproduce

Post a PR in GitHub

Expected Behavior

Bugbot should run and review the code.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Well that’s a new one I took at the look at the logs and see “Error: Cannot create a string longer than 0x1fffffe8 characters”. Will look into this, probably something to do with our context gathering for your specific PR. I can’t see your PR, do you know if there is anything weird in there that may not be common in other PRs?

[etompkins]

@jkaplan I ended up merging our PR because I needed to get the code deployed. There isn’t anything weird in the PR. The changes are a mix of PHP and Javascript code. The JS code includes code compiled with Webpack.

Would it be helpful to have a rule to exclude the generated JS code from the review? If so, what is the best way to do that?
