SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates comprehensive code reviews using Codex MCP to surface defects, security concerns, and maintainability issues in code changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Variant-aware reviews: fast (diff-only), full (lint + build), and branch reviews to fit CI workflows.
  • Independent research prompts: Codex MCP prompts guide deep understanding of changes and project context.
  • Structured outputs: findings, severity levels, and a merge gate to drive decision making.

Quick Start

Use the codex-code-review skill to initiate a review with /codex-review-fast, /codex-review, or /codex-review-branch, passing the necessary context like changed files and base branch. Codex MCP will return a structured report and suggested fixes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code review for a git diff using Codex MCP?

Codex MCP automates code review by analyzing changed files and repository metadata to surface defects. You initiate a fast diff-only review by passing changed files, returning structured findings and suggested fixes.

What is a branch review in Codex MCP and when do I need it?

A branch review evaluates all code changes across a branch using Codex MCP. You need it when assessing full feature impacts rather than isolated diffs, providing structured findings and a merge gate for decision making.

Can I include lint and build checks in an automated MCP code review?

Yes, the full review variant includes lint and build checks alongside diff analysis. This comprehensive code review uses Codex MCP to identify quality issues across multiple languages and project structures.

Does the Codex MCP code review work with multiple programming languages?

Yes, the code review applies to multiple languages and project structures. Codex MCP uses independent research prompts to guide deep understanding of changes and project context, producing structured findings regardless of language.

How do I get a merge gate decision from an automated code review?

The code review produces a merge gate decision by evaluating structured findings and severity levels. Codex MCP analyzes repository metadata and changed files to output this gate, driving your merge decision process.
