SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Manual code reviews are slow, inconsistent, and often miss security, performance, or architecture issues. This Skill automates comprehensive pull request reviews by deploying specialized review agents that analyze code in parallel and post structured feedback directly to GitHub. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Specialized Review Agents: Run dedicated agents for security, performance, architecture, style, and accessibility analysis on any pull request. - PR-Based Swarm Management: Automatically select swarm topology and spawn agents based on PR size, labels, and changed files. - Quality Gates & Automation: Enforce merge-blocking thresholds, auto-fix lint and formatting issues, and integrate reviews into CI/CD workflows. - Use Case: When a developer opens a PR touching authentication code, the Skill triggers a security-focused swarm review, posts inline comments with suggested fixes, requests changes on critical findings, and updates labels automatically. ## Quick Start Review pull request 123 with security, performance, and style agents and post the findings as PR comments.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run an automated code review on a GitHub pull request?

Fetch the PR data and diff with the GitHub CLI, then run npx ruv-swarm github review-init with the PR number and a list of agents such as security, performance, and style. Results are posted back to the PR as comments or formal reviews.

What review agents are available for pull request analysis?

The Skill provides specialized agents for security, performance, architecture, style and conventions, and accessibility. You can also register custom review agents written in JavaScript to enforce project-specific rules.

Can automated reviews block a pull request from merging?

Yes. Quality gates let you define thresholds such as no critical security issues or less than 5% performance regression. Combined with branch protection status checks, failing reviews can request changes and block merging.

Does this work with GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines?

Yes. The Skill includes workflow examples that trigger swarm reviews on pull request events, post review results via the GitHub CLI, and update labels based on findings. It integrates with existing build and test jobs.

Why are review agents not spawning for my pull request?

Check swarm status with npx ruv-swarm swarm-status and verify GitHub CLI authentication with gh auth status. If the swarm is stale, re-initialize it with the --force flag on the review-init command.

What are the limitations of swarm-based code review?

Large pull requests can make reviews slow, so incremental mode or fewer agents may be needed. The approach also depends on external tools like ruv-swarm and the GitHub CLI, and requires proper token permissions and rate limit handling.
