@esethna, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Enable usage-based reviews in Billing to review now. Otherwise, wait until the next included review is available.
You're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file).

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Documentation updates remove references to the grace period for expired Enterprise subscriptions across FAQ pages and the legacy releases document. The FAQ content now states that servers automatically downgrade to Mattermost Entry upon expiry, with paid features disabled, rather than free Team Edition after a grace period.

Changes

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Update expiry FAQ content source/product-overview/faq-enterprise.rst, source/product-overview/self-hosted-subscriptions.rst	Removed grace-period language and updated downgrade target from free Team Edition to Mattermost Entry, including revised downgrade process and reworded banner-dismissal explanation.
Remove grace-period note from legacy releases doc source/product-overview/unsupported-legacy-releases.md	Deleted the outdated Enterprise Edition improvement note about grace-period reduction and feature-disable timing.
