Warning

Review limit reached

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

Next review available in: 49 minutes

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

This pull request converts manifest.properties files across all Apps from a bracketed section format ([manifest], [target], [app]) to a flattened dotted-key format (manifest.version, target.sdk, target.platforms, app.id, app.version.name, app.version.code, app.name, app.description), while incrementing each app's manifest and application version numbers. The build tool tactility.py removes its configparser dependency, implements manual line-based property parsing, updates ttbuild_version, and updates all manifest access points (validation, target platform resolution, build/run/uninstall actions) to use the new dotted-key format.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
tactility.py	Removed configparser dependency; added manual key/value line parser; bumped ttbuild_version to 4.0.0; updated validate_manifest, get_manifest_target_platforms, build_action, run_action, uninstall_action, and main dispatch to use dotted manifest keys
Apps/*/manifest.properties (17 apps)	Converted from bracketed sections to flat key=value format; bumped manifest.version and app.version.name/app.version.code in each file

Sequence Diagram(s)

Not applicable — changes are configuration/data format conversions and internal key-access refactors without new interactive flows.

Poem:
A rabbit hopped through manifest trees,
Snipping brackets with practiced ease,
Dots now join what sections once held,
Versions climb as numbers are spelled,
Hop, hop—the build script parses with glee! 🐰
