SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams verify that PR reviews and pasted feedback align with the actual codebase, reducing false claims and review time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Code-grounded verification: Cross-checks claims against source files, commits, and tests.
  • Inline claim validation: Analyzes specific review statements by reading relevant lines.
  • Audit-ready reports: Generates a structured checklist of factual assertions for easier triage.

Quick Start

Run /comment-check on a PR to verify claims against the actual codebase and provide a structured verdict with citations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fact-check PR review comments against the actual codebase?▼

To fact-check PR review comments, you can run a verification process that cross-references review claims against source files, tests, and commits to produce a deterministic, code-grounded verification report with citations.

What is code-grounded verification for pull request reviews?▼

Code-grounded verification for pull request reviews is the process of identifying factual assertions in review comments and validating them by reading the target branch's code and test files through standard APIs to ensure feedback aligns with the repository.

How do I verify inline code review claims using standard APIs?▼

You can verify inline code review claims by applying a verification skill that reads relevant lines of code and test files via standard APIs, analyzing specific review statements to generate an audit-ready structured checklist of factual assertions.

Can I validate pasted review text across multiple repositories?▼

Yes, you can validate pasted review text across repositories by applying the fact-checking process to pasted feedback, which reads the target branch's code and tests to produce deterministic, code-grounded verifications regardless of the repository.

Does PR claim verification work without external dependencies?▼

Yes, PR claim verification works without external dependencies, relying solely on standard APIs to read target branch code, test files, and commits to cross-check review claims and generate structured verdicts with citations.

When should I not use automated fact-checking for code reviews?▼

Automated fact-checking for code reviews should not be used as a replacement for human judgment on subjective feedback; it is designed to validate factual assertions against code and tests, reducing false claims but not interpreting stylistic opinions.
