What problem does it solve? Receiving code review feedback often leads to two failure modes: performative agreement without verification, or blind implementation of suggestions that may break the codebase. This Skill enforces a disciplined response pattern so every review comment is read, understood, verified against the actual codebase, and only then implemented or pushed back on with technical reasoning. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Response Pattern: Enforces a six-step flow (read, understand, verify, evaluate, respond, implement) for every piece of review feedback. - Source-Specific Handling: Distinguishes trusted feedback from your human partner versus external reviewer suggestions that require skepticism and verification. - YAGNI and Pushback Checks: Prompts codebase verification (e.g., grepping for actual usage) before adding requested features, and supports reasoned pushback when suggestions are wrong. - Use Case: A reviewer asks to remove legacy compatibility code. Instead of agreeing, you check build targets, discover the API requires a newer OS version, and respond with the technical constraint plus options. ## Quick Start Use the dx-swe-receiving-review skill to evaluate and respond to the code review comments on my current pull request.
