FAQPage Schema
How do I customize code review rules for specific projects?▼

You can customize code review rules by placing a custom SKILL.md template in your local-skills directory to define project-specific rules. This extends or overrides the default reviewer plugin behavior for logic, patterns, documentation, or skill checks.

Can I override default code review checks with my own rules?▼

Yes, you can override default code review checks entirely by creating a local review override. This replaces the default ruleset with your custom logic, allowing consistent checks across teams without altering the core reviewer plugin.

How do I enforce project-specific coding standards across a monorepo?▼

You can enforce project-specific coding standards across a monorepo by applying local review overrides. This enables consistent custom checks per project or team without modifying the core review plugin's default behavior.

What built-in code review types can I customize with local rules?▼

You can customize four built-in core review types: logic, patterns, documentation, and skill. Local rules allow you to apply specific governance policies and coding standards to each of these review categories.

Does customizing local code review skills require external dependencies?▼

No, customizing local code review skills does not require external dependencies. You only need to define your project-specific rules using a local SKILL.md template to integrate safe-guarded local overrides.

When should I use a local review override instead of modifying the core reviewer plugin?▼

Use a local review override when you need project-specific governance policies or coding standards that differ from defaults. This approach keeps the core plugin intact while allowing safe-guarded integration checks for individual projects.
