Requesting Code Review

Review behavior, risk and validation in code changes and provide evidence-based feedback.

Available in app
A pencil reviews a highlighted change on abstract code sheets.

Overview

Prepare a structured review of a set of code changes: what was implemented, which requirements it addresses, the commit range to inspect, and the main risks in completeness, correctness, structure and testing. Use it before merging a feature, checking a fix or reviewing a substantial stage of work.

Provide the requirements, commits or diff and your known concerns. The skill helps organize the review, rank findings and suggestions by importance, and identify the relevant code locations and supporting evidence. Results also state what was outside the review and what still needs verification, helping you decide which fixes and tests come next and when integration can proceed.

Where it helps

  • Open a well-briefed review over a commit range before merging a feature
  • Have a reviewer grade deviations and gaps against the original requirements
  • Record what this round declined to judge as a list you can rule on
  • Process incoming reviews: respond per item, keep evidence, don't over-apply

Examples

Examples describe the request and the shape of the expected deliverable; they are not completed run results.

Example prompt

Open a read-only review of a3f9c21..e81b0d4 against these three acceptance criteria; list what you considered but won't judge this round before the verdict.

Expected output

A review report: scope statement, itemized findings and the tradeoffs needing your call — code and branch state untouched.

Example prompt

Nine review comments came back: triage each into fix / needs-evidence / decline-with-reason — suggestions are not commands.

Expected output

A per-comment disposition table with its basis; edit scope stays governed by the task's authorization.
