We recommend that you space out your commits to avoid hitting the rate limit.

🚦 How do rate limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces hourly rate limits for each developer per organization.

Our paid plans have higher rate limits than the trial, open-source and free plans. In all cases, we re-allow further reviews after a brief timeout.

Inline comments:
In `@docs/development/building/Building-in-Ubuntu.md`:
- Around line 55-60: The docs call out a non-existent script "npm run dev",
which will fail because the repo exposes "start" and "build" in package.json;
update the instruction in Building-in-Ubuntu.md to reference the actual script
(e.g., "npm start" or the correct script name used by the repo) and adjust the
surrounding text to say "Run npm start to launch the local server" so the
subsequent guidance about visiting http://localhost:8080/ and quitting with
Ctrl+C applies correctly.
