Code Review
This pull request replaces the placeholder API key string with 'REDACTED_BY_JULES' in both JULES_API.md and README.md. The reviewer suggests using a standard placeholder like <YOUR_API_KEY> instead of the redacted text to avoid confusing users who are following the setup instructions.
Important
The consumer version of Gemini Code Assist on GitHub is being sunset. Starting June 18, 2026, new organization installations will be blocked, and all code review activity will officially cease on July 17, 2026.

The original value 'your-api-key-here' is a standard placeholder used in documentation to guide users on where to insert their API key. Redacting it to 'REDACTED_BY_JULES' is unnecessary and can be confusing for users following the setup instructions. It is recommended to revert this change or use a standard placeholder like <YOUR_API_KEY>.
| export JULES_API_KEY='REDACTED_BY_JULES' | |
| export JULES_API_KEY="<YOUR_API_KEY>" |
| Set it as an environment variable — **never commit it**: | ||
