SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers and teams get targeted, early code reviews for recent changes so defects, contract mismatches, and regressions are caught before they compound and block progress.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • SHA-based review ranges: Define the review scope using BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA to focus feedback on specific commits.
  • Subagent dispatching: Launches a code-reviewer subagent with structured placeholders to produce focused, actionable feedback.
  • Severity triage and actions: Classifies findings (Critical, Important, Minor) and recommends whether to fix immediately, before proceeding, or note for later.
  • Use cases: Per-task reviews in subagent-driven development, pre-merge checks, and reviews after major feature completion.

Quick Start

Dispatch the code-reviewer subagent with BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA and provide WHAT_WAS_IMPLEMENTED, PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS, and a short DESCRIPTION to receive a severity-triaged review.

FAQPage Schema
How do I request a code review for a specific set of git commits?

To request a code review for a specific set of git commits, define the scope using BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA. This focuses the review on your defined commit range, dispatching a subagent to detect defects and verify changes against stated requirements.

What is the best way to automate pre-merge code quality checks for recent changes?

Automating pre-merge code quality checks is best handled by dispatching a code-reviewer subagent with BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA values. This targets recent changes, classifies severity, and returns triaged findings with recommended actions before code compounds.

Can I review code changes against original project requirements before a merge?

Yes, you can review code changes against original project requirements by passing PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS alongside the BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA. The review verifies that implemented changes meet stated requirements and returns severity-triaged findings.

How does severity triage work for automated code reviews?

Severity triage for automated code reviews works by classifying detected findings into Critical, Important, or Minor categories. The system then recommends whether to fix the issue immediately, before proceeding, or note it for later.

Do I need to provide commit SHA values to review a major feature completion?

Yes, you need to provide commit SHA values to review a major feature completion. The review scope is defined by a specific BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA, ensuring the feedback and defect detection focus strictly on the intended changes.

Why should I use subagent-driven development for per-task code reviews?

Using subagent-driven development for per-task code reviews catches defects and contract mismatches early before they compound. Dispatching a subagent with structured placeholders produces focused, actionable feedback specific to the implemented task.
