SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Code changes often get merged without structured review, letting bugs, architecture problems, and unmet requirements cascade into later work. This Skill standardizes when and how to request an AI code review so issues are caught early. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Review Dispatch: Provides a repeatable workflow for gathering git SHAs and dispatching a code-reviewer subagent with a filled-in template. - Severity-Categorized Feedback: The reviewer template classifies issues as Critical, Important, or Minor with file:line references and a clear merge verdict. - Use Case: After completing a feature task in subagent-driven development, capture the base and head commits, dispatch the reviewer with the plan requirements, and fix Critical and Important issues before moving to the next task. ## Quick Start Request a code review of my last commit against the task requirements before I continue to the next task.

FAQPage Schema
How do I request a code review for my recent changes?▼

Get the base and head commit SHAs with git rev-parse, then dispatch a code-reviewer subagent using the provided template. Fill in what was implemented, the requirements, the SHA range, and a short description.

When should I request a code review during development?▼

Request review after each task in subagent-driven development, after completing a major feature, and before merging to main. It is also useful when stuck or before refactoring to establish a baseline.

How are code review issues categorized by severity?▼

Issues are grouped into Critical (bugs, security, data loss), Important (architecture problems, missing features, test gaps), and Minor (style, optimizations). Each issue includes a file:line reference, impact, and suggested fix.

What should I do if the code reviewer is wrong?▼

Push back with technical reasoning rather than ignoring the feedback. Show code or tests that prove the implementation works, and request clarification if the reviewer's concern is unclear.

Can I skip code review for simple changes?▼

No. The Skill explicitly flags skipping review because a change seems simple as a red flag. Critical issues must be fixed immediately and Important issues before proceeding, regardless of perceived simplicity.
