How do I automate code review for my current commit?

Automate code review by dispatching a subagent to check the current commit for issues. The skill manages the review-fix loop, handling retries and timeouts until the codebase reaches zero issues.

How does the review-fix loop handle unresolved code quality issues?

The review-fix loop handles unresolved code quality issues by managing subagent retries and timeouts. It continuously dispatches reviews until all identified issues in the codebase are resolved.

Can I run parallel code reviews in isolated sessions?
