SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables completing development work directly in the current checkout while enforcing a mandatory two-round self-review/refactor gate before seeking human confirmation.

Core Features & Use Cases

In-place development workflow: fix and iterate in the active workspace without creating separate worktrees.
Dual self-review gate: two systematic self-reviews to surface quality improvements and catch regressions.
Explicit approval gate: pauses for human confirmation before proceeding to the next step or deployment.

Quick Start

Run the gate workflow in your current workspace to complete the change, perform two self-reviews, and wait for human confirmation before continuing.

FAQPage Schema

How do I enforce a self-review gate before merging code changes in my current workspace?▼

A self-review gate enforces two systematic review passes on code changes in your current checkout before producing an approval report and pausing for human confirmation. This prevents unreviewed edits from proceeding to the next step or deployment.

Can I run code refactoring and review without creating a separate git worktree?▼

Yes, in-place development lets you fix and iterate directly in the active workspace without creating separate worktrees. The workflow enforces scope and gates progress through two self-review passes before final approval.

What is a dual self-review gate in a development workflow?▼

A dual self-review gate is a mandatory two-round review and refactor process applied to code changes. It systematically surfaces quality improvements and catches regressions before pausing for explicit human confirmation to proceed.

How do I add a human approval checkpoint to my code review and refactor process?▼

An explicit approval gate pauses development after two self-review passes, waiting for human confirmation before continuing. It enforces scope, produces an approval report, and ensures no changes proceed without sign-off.

When should I use an in-place self-review gate instead of a standard pull request review?▼

Use an in-place self-review gate when you need to complete development directly in the current checkout with enforced scope control and two systematic self-reviews before human confirmation, avoiding separate worktrees or external review tooling.
