      summary: Leave a review on a listing (anonymous)
      description: 'Unauthenticated. Requires the directory to have opted in via `submissionPolicy.reviews = true`; otherwise 404 — a directory never accepts anonymous writes by default.


        Takes `authorName`, `rating` (1-5) and `body`, as JSON or as multipart.


        Up to 3 images may be attached as multipart parts named `images`, 5 MB each. Every one is identified by its CONTENT rather than its declared type, then re-encoded to WebP and bounded to 1600px. **Re-encoding discards EXIF**, which is what keeps a reviewer from unintentionally publishing the GPS coordinates in a photo taken at their own home. Images attached to a submission that fails the spam checks are discarded rather than stored.


        Nothing submitted here is visible to anyone until a moderator approves it, and approval is what moves the listing''s rating average. The target listing is resolved through the same visibility gate as public reads, so a review on an unpublished listing returns 404 rather than confirming the draft exists.


        Send a Cloudflare Turnstile token as `turnstileToken` when Turnstile is configured server-side.


        Rate limited to **5 per hour per IP**. Always returns **202 `{ accepted: true }`** for anything that validates — including submissions judged to be spam, which are stored with `status: spam`. Bots get no signal about which check caught them.'
