SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Writing review feedback and issue replies that are both kind and actionable is hard; comments often end up too blunt, too vague, or buried in unnecessary recap. This Skill provides voice rules and a repeatable structure so every comment a human reads is useful, warm, and short. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Voice Rules: Enforces actionable-first structure, warmth without corporate tone, brevity (1-3 short paragraphs), and technical justification for requested changes. - Comment Formula: A three-part template (observation, why it matters, concrete next action) for consistent feedback. - Language Matching: Automatically matches the target thread's language, with neutral professional Spanish as the default for Spanish contexts. - Use Case: Before replying to a GitHub PR that mixes validation logic with UI wiring, use this Skill to draft a concise change request that explains the reasoning and suggests splitting the commit. ## Quick Start Use the comment-writer skill to draft review feedback for PR 42 asking the author to split the validation logic into a separate commit.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write better pull request review comments?

Start with the actionable point instead of recapping the PR, explain the technical reason for any requested change, and keep it to one to three short paragraphs. Follow the formula: direct observation, why it matters, then a concrete next action.

How to give code review feedback without sounding harsh?

Sound like a thoughtful teammate by being warm and direct: state the observation plainly, justify it technically, and avoid pile-ons by commenting only on the highest-value issue rather than every minor preference.

Can I write GitHub comments in Spanish with this skill?

Yes, the skill matches the target context language by default, so a Spanish issue or thread gets a Spanish comment. It uses neutral professional Spanish unless the user or context clearly calls for a regional tone.

What is the ideal length for a PR review comment?

Prefer one to three short paragraphs or a tight bullet list. Lead with the actionable point and include the reasoning only if needed, so reviewers and authors stay focused.

When should I not use this comment-writing guidance?

It is designed for human-readable collaboration comments like PR feedback, issue replies, and Slack updates. It does not apply to commit messages, code documentation, or automated bot messages.
