**issue (bug_risk):** The new `--allowedTools` argument replaces the action's existing default allowlist, so Claude is left with only the four `git` command patterns and loses `Glob`, `Grep`, `LS`, and `Read`; the reviewer cannot use the normal source-inspection tools it previously relied on.

**Triggers:** On any review run where the action treats the CLI allowlist as an override rather than a merge.

**Suggested fix:** Include the existing inspection tools in the allowlist, for example `Read,Glob,Grep,LS` alongside the four `Bash(git ...)` patterns, or use the action's documented additive mechanism.
