Research direction
Start by locating the code that fetches a pull request from the GitHub API and inspect how a 404 is handled immediately after creation. Reproduce the timing if possible, then verify that transient 404 responses are retried with exponential back-off and that the review request succeeds once the pull request becomes available.
