What problem does it solve?
Unvetted code changes often contain bugs, architecture flaws, or unmet requirements that cause cascading issues and costly rework if merged without review. This Skill eliminates that risk by enforcing a structured, focused code review process before code is merged.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Dedicated Review Subagent: Dispatches a specialized code-reviewer subagent with precise context (git SHAs, implemented work, original requirements) so the review focuses solely on the code, not the developer's thought process.
- Severity-Categorized Feedback: Organizes review findings into Critical, Important, and Minor issues with clear fix guidance, so you can prioritize work effectively.
- Workflow Integration: Supports subagent-driven development (review after each task), plan execution (review after each batch of tasks), and ad-hoc development (review before merge or when stuck).
Quick Start
Use the requesting-code-review skill to run a structured code review on your recent changes by sharing the base and head commit SHAs, a summary of your implemented work, and the original requirements or plan.
