SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates iterative code reviews using a read-only Codex CLI and Claude Code to refine code changes until the review status is OK, reducing manual back-and-forth and ensuring higher quality in PRs, commits, or releases.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read-only Codex reviews: Codex analyzes diffs and suggests fixes without executing code locally.
  • Claude Code iterative fixes: Claude Code applies minimal, targeted changes and re-evaluates until ok: true.
  • Pre-commit/PR readiness: Streamlines reviews before merges by providing structured feedback and traceable fixes.

Quick Start

  • Run a Codex review on the target diff: codex exec --sandbox read-only "<PROMPT>"
  • After Claude Code provides fixes, re-run the review until the status is OK.
  • Integrate the final OK status into your Git workflow (PR or merge) as a gate.

Frequently Asked Questions about codex-review

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate iterative code reviews for a pull request?▼

Automate iterative code reviews by running a read-only Codex CLI on your diff and using Claude Code to apply fixes until the review status is OK. This loop performs size-based reviews, iterative edits, and re-checks until ok is true.

Can I use Codex CLI to review git diffs without executing code locally?▼

Yes, Codex CLI can review git diffs without executing code locally by running in a read-only sandbox. It analyzes the changes and suggests targeted fixes directly from the diff output.

How do Claude Code and Codex CLI work together for structured fixes?▼

Codex CLI performs a read-only review of the diff and provides structured feedback, then Claude Code applies minimal, targeted changes. The cycle repeats with re-evaluations until the review converges on an OK status.

Does this iterative code review approach support large changes across multiple modules?▼

Yes, the iterative review handles small to large changes spanning multiple files and modules. It performs size-based reviews to adapt the feedback and structured fixes for pre-commit, PR, or release workflows.

What is the best way to gate a merge using automated code review feedback?▼

Gate a merge by integrating the final OK status from the iterative review loop into your Git workflow. Once Codex and Claude Code converge on an ok status, the PR or merge is approved to proceed.
