SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents technical debt and bugs from accumulating by providing systematic code reviews at critical development milestones.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Review Dispatch: Seamlessly triggers code-review-agent subagent to analyze implementation against requirements
  • Integration with Development Workflows: Works with subagent-driven development, plan execution, and ad-hoc coding
  • Use Case: After completing a major feature implementation, use this Skill to automatically review your code changes against the original requirements before merging to main, catching potential issues early.

Quick Start

Use the requesting-code-review skill to dispatch a code review for the changes between commits a7981ec and 3df7661, comparing implementation against Task 2 requirements from the deployment plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code reviews before merging changes?

Automate code reviews by dispatching the code-review-agent subagent to validate implementation against requirements. This Skill obtains base and head commit SHAs, invokes the agent with your implementation details and original requirements, then prioritizes and applies critical feedback before merge.

When should I request a code review in my development workflow?

Request code reviews after completing major features, during subagent-driven development cycles, before merging to main, or when stuck on implementation. Mandatory reviews at these checkpoints catch issues early and prevent technical debt accumulation.

What information do I need to provide for a code review?

Provide the base and head commit SHAs for your changes, a description of what was implemented, your original plan or requirements, and the scope of the task or feature. The Skill uses these to dispatch the review agent and compare implementation against specifications.

Can I use code reviews with my existing Git workflow?

Yes, code reviews integrate seamlessly with Git-based development workflows. Specify commit SHAs from your repository, and the Skill dispatches automated review analysis without disrupting your existing branching or merge process.

How does automated code review catch bugs before merge?

The code-review-agent analyzes your changes against requirements, identifies critical and important issues, and provides structured feedback. Acting on this pre-merge validation prevents bugs and technical debt from reaching main.

What happens after the code review identifies issues?

The Skill prioritizes critical and important issues for your attention. You review the feedback, apply fixes to your code, and can re-run the review to validate improvements before proceeding to merge.
