What's Wrong?
The /ultrareview command refuses to launch and claims the Claude GitHub App is not installed, even though the app is installed on the account (bnsa3ed) with explicit access
granted to the target repository (MyPajero-iOS). The error appears regardless of invocation form — no args, branch name, or PR number.
What Should Happen?
/ultrareview should detect the installed GitHub App and launch a cloud review of the feature branch against main.
Error Messages/Logs
Ultrareview cannot launch:
The Claude GitHub app must be installed on this repository first.

Steps to Reproduce

- Install the Claude GitHub App on the bnsa3ed account via https://github.com/apps/claude/installations/new
- Grant explicit access to MyPajero-iOS under Repository Access
- Push two branches: main (baseline) and feature/mypajero-phase1-2 (with code)
- Open PR #1 (feature/mypajero-phase1-2 → main)
- Run /ultrareview — error appears
- Run /ultrareview feature/mypajero-phase1-2 — error appears
- Run /ultrareview 1 (PR number) — error appears
- Changed Repository Access to "All repositories" — error persists
