SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps teams proactively detect bugs, security vulnerabilities, and code quality problems in code changes made during a specific review phase.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-scoped change review: Reviews the files changed in a specified phase, ensuring the analysis stays focused on the right window of work.
  • Configurable analysis depth: Supports quick, standard, and deep review modes to balance speed vs. thoroughness, including cross-file reasoning at deeper levels.
  • Actionable findings output: Generates a phase directory REVIEW.md artifact with severity-classified findings and an inline summary for next steps.
  • Optional automated fixes: Can spawn a fixer workflow to apply suggested changes and optionally re-review in an iterative loop.

Quick Start

Run the skill with a phase number, for example: gsD-code-review <phase-number> --depth=standard.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find bugs and security vulnerabilities before merging code changes?

To find bugs and security vulnerabilities before merge, you can use an automated code review process that analyzes changed files in a specific phase. This Skill spawns a code-reviewer agent to identify security issues and quality problems, outputting a severity-classified findings artifact.

Can I control the depth of static analysis during a pre-merge code review?

Yes, you can control the depth of static analysis during a pre-merge code review by configuring the review mode. The Skill supports quick, standard, and deep review depths, allowing you to balance scanning speed against thorough cross-file reasoning.

What's the best way to automate patch remediation after identifying security findings?

The best way to automate patch remediation is to spawn an automated fixer workflow after identifying security findings. This workflow applies suggested changes to the source files and can optionally re-review the code iteratively to verify the remediation.

Does this code review approach work for multiple programming languages?

Yes, this code review approach works for multiple programming languages. The analysis applies to file sets changed during a specified review phase, supporting security-minded software engineering workflows across diverse codebases without language-specific limitations.

How are code review findings formatted for tracking patch validation?

Code review findings for tracking patch validation are formatted as a padded phase-REVIEW.md artifact. This output file contains severity-classified findings and an inline summary, providing actionable next steps for your software engineering workflow.
