Poem

🐰
I hopped through lines of JSON bright,
Swapped Wednesdays for the month's first light,
Group names nudged to match the day,
Renovate will now wait and play —
A tiny hop, a config bite.

🧹 Nitpick comments (1)

renovate.json (1)

8-9: Verify prHourlyLimit/prConcurrentLimit are sufficient for a monthly cadence.

With a 4-hour monthly window and prHourlyLimit: 2, Renovate can create at most 8 PRs per monthly run. Any excess PRs will be deferred until the next month, assuming the scheduled window has passed by the time earlier PRs are merged/closed.

group:allNonMajor collapses non-major updates into a single PR, and major updates are gated behind dependencyDashboardApproval, so this is unlikely to be an issue in practice — but worth confirming if the repository has a high count of major-version updates that could pile up.

In `@renovate.json` around lines 8 - 9, Confirm that the current Renovate rate
limits are adequate for a 4-hour monthly scheduled run: review prHourlyLimit and
prConcurrentLimit and increase them if you need more than 8 PRs per run
(prHourlyLimit: 2 × 4 hours = 8 PRs). Check how many potential PRs could be
produced given your dependency graph and the config entries group:allNonMajor
and dependencyDashboardApproval (non-majors collapse, majors need approval) and
adjust prHourlyLimit and/or prConcurrentLimit upward to accommodate peak monthly
churn so excess updates are not deferred to the next month.

Inline comments:
In `@renovate.json`:
- Line 6: The Renovate config uses the deprecated later.js natural-language
schedule string under the "schedule" key; replace that human-readable value with
a cron expression or preset: update the "schedule" entry in renovate.json to use
the cron form "* 0-3 1 * *" (or the "schedule:monthly" preset) so Renovate uses
the supported cron syntax instead of the later.js text format.

Inline comments:
In `@renovate.json`:
- Around line 6-7: The JSON is invalid because the "schedule" property line is
missing a trailing comma, which breaks parsing and prevents the
"dependencyDashboard" setting from being applied; fix by adding a comma after
the "schedule": ["* 0-3 1 * *"] entry so the "dependencyDashboard" key is a
valid subsequent property (check the renovate.json object containing "schedule"
and "dependencyDashboard" and ensure proper comma separation between entries).
