SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Code written under time pressure often ships with blind spots — missed edge cases, security gaps, and logic errors the author cannot see. This Skill enforces a systematic review process that catches critical issues before they reach the main branch. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Review Dispatch: Uses delegate_task to send a focused reviewer subagent with a full checklist covering correctness, quality, testing, security, and performance. - Tiered Feedback Triage: Classifies findings as Critical, Important, or Minor so you know exactly what blocks a merge and what can wait. - Quality Gates: Defines mandatory pass criteria (no critical issues, all tests green, APPROVE verdict) before merging. - Use Case: After finishing a feature branch with changes to auth and user models, dispatch a reviewer subagent with the diff context, receive a verdict of REQUEST_CHANGES with two critical security findings, fix them, and re-review before merging. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to review the changes on your current branch using the requesting-code-review process before merging to main.

FAQPage Schema
How do I request a code review before merging a branch?▼

Run a self-review checklist first, gather context with git diff and git log, then dispatch a reviewer subagent via delegate_task with the changed files and a review checklist. Act on the tiered feedback before merging.

When should I request a code review during development?▼

Request review after each task in subagent-driven development, after completing major features, after bug fixes, and always before merging to main. Reviews are also valuable when stuck or before refactoring.

What should a code review checklist include?▼

Cover correctness against requirements, edge case handling, error handling, code readability, meaningful test coverage, security vulnerabilities like injection or exposed secrets, and performance issues such as N+1 queries.

What issues should block a merge in code review?▼

Critical issues block merges: security vulnerabilities, broken functionality, data loss risk, and test failures. Important issues like missing edge cases or unclear code should be fixed before merge when possible.

What if I disagree with reviewer feedback?▼

Push back with technical reasoning and evidence. Show code or tests that prove the implementation works, and request clarification rather than arguing without support.
