To review a code change before checkpoint approval, use a structured five-step flow that guides you through diff orientation, walkthrough, detail pass, testing, and wrap-up. This process focuses your attention on the most critical decisions and high-blast-radius areas.

A human-in-the-loop checkpoint review is a process where a human must understand a feature branch, commit, or PR diff before deciding to approve, rework, or discuss it. It generates a review trail grouping code by concern to support the final decision.

Spot high-risk areas during diff analysis by applying risk awareness checks that highlight high-blast-radius logic such as auth, public APIs, schema changes, infra, and security-sensitive code. This guides your attention to areas with the most impact before approval.

Yes, you can use this checkpoint review workflow for any delivered diff, feature branch, commit, or pull request that requires orientation and human approval. It requires a human-produced diff or change context to initiate the guided walkthrough.

Generate a review trail for a code diff by passing the change context through the guided review flow. The process groups code by concern, explains what each part of the change does, and provides CWD-relative path:line references for tracking.
