What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps reviewers quickly and consistently identify correctness, security, scalability, performance, code reuse, and maintainability issues in repository changes, reducing missed bugs and improving review quality and actionability.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured checklists for correctness, security, scalability, code reuse, and maintainability tailored to backend (Prisma/tRPC/NextAuth) and frontend (Next.js, shadcn) changes.
• Guidance to scan diffs by logical groups (backend, frontend, config/tooling) and produce concrete findings grouped by severity (Critical, Major, Minor) with remediation suggestions and a reusable response template.
• Use cases include pull request reviews, security hardening of auth/API changes, detecting N+1 and performance regressions, consolidating duplicated components, and surfacing missing tests or type gaps.

Quick Start

Review pull request #123 by summarizing its domain, scanning backend and frontend diffs using the security and performance checklists, and returning findings grouped by severity with concrete suggestions using the provided template.
