# #95 style-review: calibrate analyzer-redundant rules to info; keep correctness bugs out of style scope

> The al-style-review skill recalibrates analyzer-redundant rules to info severity and clarifies domain boundaries to keep correctness issues out of the style scope, reducing false-positive findings in code review.

[Pull request](https://github.com/microsoft/BCQuality/pull/95) · merged into `main` on 2026-07-14 by gggdttt · 1 file (+6 -4), 1 AL · fix · tier official · reviewed (checked by Opus)

## What changed

- Mechanical conventions already enforced by CodeCop (like this keyword, tooltip requirements, label scope) are downgraded to info severity instead of minor
- Correctness, logic, and data-integrity defects are redirected from the style domain to appropriate channels like al-code-review's agent channel
- Severity calibration reserves minor for style issues with concrete downstream impact that analyzers don't catch (translation loss, option caption mismatches, misleading invocations)
- Domain boundaries clarified with concrete counter-examples and a reliable test: if no style best practice can be cited, it's likely not a style finding
- Changes are guidance-only edits to the skill; no schema or engine changes
- Behaviour changes for users or extensions.
