Acceptance Criteria
  • boilerplate_text is no longer referenced in python or javascript code

Search the repository's Python and JavaScript code for boilerplate_text, then trace each reference to the reviewer tools that still support it. Remove the redundant support and rerun the relevant reviewer-tool tests or checks; done means no Python or JavaScript references remain.
