Dokima vs pull-request review bots

# A pull request shows the change. The security question may live elsewhere.

PR review bots meet developers at a useful moment. Dokima works across the wider workspace, keeps security context between runs and maintains findings beyond a single code review.

Where it works well

## Pull-request review bots has a useful job to do.

* Giving immediate feedback where developers already review changes.
* Catching local mistakes before merge.
* Explaining or summarising a compact code change.
* Keeping routine review comments close to the pull request.

Where Dokima differs

## Context and review, not just another pass.

* 01Dokima can review existing code, not only the current diff.
* 02Architecture, attack-surface and security-assumption state persists across the workspace.
* 03Work is scheduled by review stage instead of being limited to the PR event.
* 04Findings remain in a dedicated security lifecycle after the change is merged.
