What problem does it solve?

Developer sharpening exercise — user writes the implementation first, Claude reviews and compares. Keeps independent coding ability sharp. Triggers on "/shadow-code", "shadow mode", "I'll write it first", "let me try first".

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided self-review: You provide the initial implementation and Claude offers a structured critique without rewriting unless requested.
  • Gap analysis & learning: Claude highlights gaps, differences, and improvement opportunities to reinforce coding skills.
  • Use Case: A junior developer demonstrates a function, then receives a focused review to understand alternative approaches and best practices.

Quick Start

Paste or describe your implementation task and code, then request a review to receive structured feedback.
