SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates the initiation of code reviews to catch issues early by providing focused context and a standardized review workflow, reducing back-and-forth and misalignment. This helps teams review actual work against requirements rather than session history, improving overall code quality.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Promptly trigger a code-review subagent after task completion to validate changes against the specification.
  • Provide structured templates with placeholders for WHAT_WAS_IMPLEMENTED, PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS, BASE_SHA, HEAD_SHA, and DESCRIPTION to guide reviewers.
  • Support ad-hoc and batch reviews before merging to main, ensuring early feedback and conformity to quality gates.
  • Integrate with git workflows to keep reviews focused on the implemented changes.

Quick Start

Trigger a code review immediately after finishing a task to start the evaluation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code review initiation after completing a git feature?

You can automate code review initiation by dispatching a focused reviewer subagent with relevant context using a predefined template. This captures implementation details, requirements, base and head SHAs, and descriptions to guide structured assessment.

What is the best way to trigger a code review before merging to main?

The best way to trigger a code review before merging is to dispatch a focused reviewer against your HEAD_SHA. This ensures changes are validated against original specifications and conform to quality gates before integration.

How does a structured code review template improve quality assurance?

A structured code review template improves quality assurance by standardizing the evaluation context with fields like WHAT_WAS_IMPLEMENTED and PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS. This guides reviewers to assess actual work against requirements rather than session history.

Can I batch review multiple git changes instead of reviewing each task individually?

Yes, you can perform batch reviews of accumulated changes before merging to main. The workflow supports both ad-hoc evaluations after individual tasks and consolidated reviews of major features.

When should I avoid using an automated code review workflow?

You should avoid automated code review workflows when your changes lack a clear BASE_SHA or HEAD_SHA context. The process relies on predefined templates to compare specific implementations against documented requirements.

Does the requesting-code-review subagent work without additional dependencies?

Yes, the requesting-code-review subagent works without additional dependencies. It operates by dispatching a reviewer with structured context captured through predefined templates to validate your git workflow changes.
