SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps reviewers and developers assess bug reports, issues, pull requests, and local diffs to find risks, missing context, edge cases, and verification steps before implementation or merging.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Targeted scope resolution: Accepts issue or PR URLs, inspects local diffs, or asks for the smallest missing context when scope is ambiguous.
  • Compact evidence gathering: Reads issue text, PR summaries, changed files, and configured MCP-backed context while avoiding broad, unnecessary repo exploration.
  • Code-review mindset outputs: Prioritizes correctness, regressions, security risks, missing tests, and produces prioritized findings, verification checklists, and safe implementation plans.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to review the linked pull request and list the top findings, risks, and missing tests.
