SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires python3.

What problem does it solve?

It helps a reviewer make sense of a change by guiding a human through a structured, human-in-the-loop walkthrough—especially for “checkpoint” moments where attention and testing matter most.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Checkpoint Review Workflow: Orchestrates an orientation, guided walkthrough, risk-aware detail pass, and practical testing prompts for a proposed change.
  • Customization-Driven Behavior: Loads workflow settings from the skill root and applies team/user overrides via the project’s BMad merge rules.
  • Generated Review Trail: Creates a suggested review order from the diff (when no higher-quality trail exists), so the reviewer can focus on the highest-leverage stops.

Quick Start

Ask the system to run the bmad-checkpoint-preview workflow for the change you want to review, and it will guide you step-by-step through understanding context, inspecting high-risk areas, and choosing what to test next.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform a structured human-in-the-loop code review for a specific diff?

A structured human-in-the-loop code review guides you through orientation, walkthrough, and risk-focused detail passes using diff and repo context. It streamlines checkpoint moments by generating a suggested review order and practical testing prompts.

Can I customize the guided code walkthrough workflow for my team?

Yes, you can customize the guided code walkthrough workflow by loading settings from the skill root and applying team or user overrides via the project merge rules. This adjusts the review orchestration to fit your specific checkpoint process.

What is a checkpoint review workflow and when do I need it?

A checkpoint review workflow orchestrates an orientation, guided walkthrough, risk-aware detail pass, and practical testing prompts for a proposed change. You need it when attention and testing matter most during human code review.

How do I generate a review trail from a git diff?

To generate a review trail from a git diff, the system creates a suggested review order highlighting the highest-leverage stops. This occurs automatically when no higher-quality review trail exists for the proposed change.

Does this code review workflow require Python?

Yes, this code review workflow requires Python 3 as a dependency to run the orchestration process. You need it installed in your environment to execute the checkpoint review steps.

What is the best way to assess risk during a diff analysis?

The best way to assess risk during diff analysis is through a risk-focused detail pass that prioritizes high-leverage areas. The system generates a targeted review trail and testing prompts to guide your human judgment.
