Description
/code-review ultra <PR#> (ultrareview) fails identically on back-to-back runs against a large private monorepo. Both cloud sessions end with:
Cloud review failed: orchestrator reported an error: Review failed: all review agents terminated before completing. See session logs for details.
No findings are produced. Two of three free ultrareview runs were consumed by these failures.
Context that suggests a size-related, deterministic failure
- Running local
/ultrareviewin the same repo is refused with "Repo is too large. Push a PR and use/code-review ultra <PR#>instead." — but the recommended cloud path then dies too, so large repos currently have no working ultra path. - Repo
.gitis ~414 MB. - Target PR: 110 changed files, +5056/−2026.
- Failure reproduced twice with identical error text (2026-08-21 and 2026-08-22), which does not look transient.
Sessions (for internal log lookup)

Environment
- Claude Code CLI 2.1.226, macOS (Darwin 25.6.0)
- Launched from terminal in a git worktree of the repo; GitHub connection freshly re-established via
/web-setupbefore the runs
Expected
Cloud review completes (or fails with an actionable message — e.g. "repo/PR too large for cloud review" — before consuming a metered run).
Actual
All review agents terminate before completing; run is consumed; no findings.
