What problem does it solve?
It solves the problem of shipping bugs late by ensuring changes get an early, structured review before they cascade into more work.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Pre-merge reviewer dispatch: Sends a dedicated reviewer subagent only when the user explicitly requests a code review pass, using a tight diff-based context rather than the whole session history.
- Diff + plan-aligned evaluation: Provides the reviewer with
{DESCRIPTION}, {PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS}, and a specific {BASE_SHA}..{HEAD_SHA} range so feedback stays grounded in what was actually implemented and required.
- Actionable feedback loop: Separates issues into Critical/Important/Minor with guidance for how to respond (fix now vs note later vs push back with reasoning).
- Workflow checkpoints: Fits into subagent-driven development (review after each task), major feature completion, and before merging to main.
Quick Start
Use the reviewer subagent dispatch after you finish a PR-ready change, providing the description, the relevant plan/requirements text, and the base and head SHAs for the diff.
