Summary
Adds a research-backed improvement plan for VICE/PRBot after deep industry analysis and a full audit of the current review pipeline.
The review is slow mainly because every run multiplies expensive work: Docker cold start, fresh clone, sequential context discovery, duplicated specialist prompts, and a sequential verifier. Incremental mode currently skips only LLM work, not prepare cost.
