SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents defects, requirement mismatches, and integration risk by ensuring new changes are reviewed before they progress or merge.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured review dispatch: sends a dedicated code reviewer subagent with tightly crafted, task-specific context rather than full chat history.
  • SHA-based change scoping: uses BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA to bound what the reviewer evaluates.
  • Actionable feedback handling: prioritizes Critical/Important/Minor issues and guides you to fix or address them before continuing.
  • Use case: After each subagent-driven development task or after completing a major feature, request review to reduce rework and late-stage surprises.

Quick Start

Use the requesting-code-review skill to request a code reviewer subagent for your latest change, providing a clear description, requirements, and the BASE_SHA/HEAD_SHA range.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code review for a specific git commit range?

You can automate code review by providing a BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA range to scope the exact changes. The reviewer subagent then evaluates only those commits, ensuring focused feedback on the specific code modifications before they progress.

What is the best way to run pre-merge checks on a feature branch?

Pre-merge checks are best handled by dispatching a focused code reviewer subagent with task-specific context. This validates feature completion and identifies Critical, Important, or Minor issues before the code integrates into the main branch.

How does subagent-driven development handle code quality assurance?

Code quality assurance in subagent-driven workflows is handled by dispatching a dedicated reviewer subagent at development checkpoints. It uses tightly crafted context and SHA-based scoping to provide prioritized, actionable remediation feedback.

Do I need to provide the full chat history for an automated code review?

No, you do not need the full chat history. The code review process uses tightly crafted, task-specific context along with BASE_SHA and HEAD_SHA inputs to evaluate changes, preventing defects and requirement mismatches without full conversation logs.

When should I request a code review during software engineering workflows?

You should request a code review after completing a subagent-driven development task or finishing a major feature. Applying these pre-merge validation checkpoints catches integration risks early and reduces late-stage rework.

How is code review feedback prioritized for fixes?

Code review feedback is prioritized into Critical, Important, and Minor categories. This prioritization-driven remediation guides you to fix the most severe defects and requirement mismatches first before continuing with your work.
