SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

PR reviews are time-consuming and error-prone; review-prep provides a local, structured context that shows what the PR proposes, what the code actually does, the gaps, and the blast radius of changed symbols.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Synthesizes changed files from a pull request or diff into a focused scope for review.
  • Produces emergent and spec-driven diagrams when a mache schema is present, plus a targeted impact analysis for changed symbols.
  • Delivers a concise, reviewer-facing context that highlights gaps, drift, and potential blast radii to guide targeted testing and validation.

Quick Start

Analyze a PR by passing its number (e.g., 123) or owner/repo#N to generate the internal review context before posting a GitHub review.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate impact analysis for changed symbols in a pull request?▼

To generate impact analysis for changed symbols in a pull request, identify changed files in the diff to determine the scope of impact. This process produces a targeted reviewer context highlighting blast radius and drift notes.

What is blast radius analysis in code review?▼

Blast radius analysis in code review identifies the scope of impact for changed symbols within a pull request. It generates a structured reviewer context that highlights drift notes and potential risks to guide targeted testing.

How do I prepare a structured PR review context before posting to GitHub?▼

Prepare a structured PR review context by passing a pull request number or owner/repo#N identifier. The system synthesizes changed files, diagrams, and impact analysis into a concise local context before you post a GitHub review.

Can I generate architecture diagrams from a diff automatically?▼

You can generate emergent architecture diagrams from a diff automatically. When a mache schema is present, the system also produces a schema-driven spec diagram to visualize the pull request changes.

Does review-prep require external dependencies to run local impact analysis?▼

Running local impact analysis requires no external dependencies. The tool synthesizes the pull request scope, diagrams, and blast radius internally to deliver a focused reviewer context without additional components.
