Review unavailable

Error message

Review unavailable

What it means

IssueChatThread's uncertain-submission review button throws this when the review flow is clicked but no `onReviewConversation` callback was supplied to the component. The component cannot perform the review conversation request itself, so it fails fast instead of silently doing nothing. It is caught by the surrounding try/catch which sets `reviewError` and shows an inline error UI.

Solutions

1. Pass an `onReviewConversation` prop when rendering IssueChatThread wherever uncertain submissions can occur.
2. If the context truly has no review capability, hide the review button by not rendering uncertain submission UI (or gate on the prop).
3. Check the parent that renders IssueChatThread for a recently dropped prop in git history.

Example fix

// before
<IssueChatThread issueId={id} onSubmit={submit} />
// after
<IssueChatThread issueId={id} onSubmit={submit} onReviewConversation={reviewConversation} />

if (typeof onReviewConversation !== 'function') console.warn('IssueChatThread: review disabled — no onReviewConversation');

const canReview = (p: unknown): p is () => Promise<void> => typeof p === 'function';

try { await onReviewConversation(); } catch { setReviewError(true); }

When it happens

Trigger: Rendering <IssueChatThread> without an `onReviewConversation` prop while an uncertain submission exists, then clicking the 'review' outline button.

Common situations: Embedding IssueChatThread in a custom page or storybook harness that wires chat submission but forgets the review callback; a refactor removing the prop wiring from a parent page.
