SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables fast, ad-hoc reviews of tasks and specifications without running pipelines.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Standalone review execution: Run quick checks on implementation or handoff tasks without a full pipeline.
  • Structured guidance: Defines goals, scope, and capture actionable findings for PRD/TECH_SPEC or task notes.
  • Audit-ready outputs: Produces a concise summary suitable for PRD/TECH_SPEC or task notes.

Quick Start

Uncommitted diff: codex review --uncommitted Compare to a base branch: codex review --base <branch> Specific commit: codex review --commit <sha> Custom focus (no diff flags): codex review "Focus on correctness, regressions, edge cases; list missing tests."

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform a standalone review of uncommitted code without running a full pipeline?▼

You can run a standalone review on uncommitted code by using the `codex review --uncommitted` command to quickly validate implementation intent and capture actionable findings without executing full pipelines.

What is an ad-hoc implementation review and when do I need it?▼

An ad-hoc implementation review is a fast validation process used during handoff to approve changes and record decisions in PRD or TECH_SPEC documents without running full pipelines.

Can I review a specific commit against a base branch for PRD updates?▼

Yes, you can compare a specific commit against a base branch using `codex review --base <branch>` or `codex review --commit <sha>` to generate audit-ready summaries for your PRD or TECH_SPEC.

How do I focus a code review on correctness and missing edge cases?▼

You can run `codex review "Focus on correctness, regressions, edge cases; list missing tests."` without diff flags to direct the standalone review toward specific implementation concerns.

Does standalone review require pipeline dependencies to validate task notes?▼

No, standalone review operates independently of pipeline dependencies, allowing you to validate user intent and record decisions in task notes directly during implementation.
