FAQPage Schema

How do I run a structured code review on a pull request diff?▼

To run a structured code review on a pull request diff, provide the PR diff and request a focused profile. The review uses a two-pass process to detect and verify issues, categorizing findings using a 16-category taxonomy with severity and confidence levels.

What is taxonomy-guided code review and how does it identify issues?▼

Taxonomy-guided code review identifies issues by applying a 16-category classification system to code changes. It runs a two-pass process to detect and then verify findings, assigning severity, confidence, and qualifiers to each issue for targeted remediation.

Can I focus my code review on specific issue categories instead of running a full scan?▼

Yes, you can focus your code review on specific issue categories using focused profiling. This allows you to apply narrow category scopes to pull requests, staged diffs, or file sets instead of running a full scope analysis across all 16 taxonomy categories.

Does this code review approach work with staged changes and targeted file diffs?▼

Yes, this code review approach works with staged changes and targeted file diffs. You can provide staged diffs or specific file sets for review, and the two-pass analysis will categorize issues and assign severity and confidence levels for remediation.

How does reference material improve code review remediation?▼

Reference material improves code review remediation by validating findings and guiding fixes. The review process loads category references to ensure defect detection accuracy and provide actionable context for resolving identified issues in the code changes.
