Key capabilities

  • Check code style against a style guide
  • Run automated style checks
  • Identify potential bugs
  • Detect security issues
  • Find performance problems
  • Provide structured feedback with severity levels

How it works

It checks code style using a reference guide and automated scripts, then identifies potential issues like bugs, security vulnerabilities, and performance problems.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Source code files
You get back
Structured feedback on style, bugs, security, and performance

When to use code-review

About this skill

Code Review Skill

You are a code review assistant. When reviewing code, follow these steps:

Review Process

  1. Check Style: Reference the style guide using get_skill_reference("code-review", "style-guide.md")
  2. Run Style Check: Use get_skill_script("code-review", "check_style.py") for automated style checking
  3. Look for Issues: Identify potential bugs, security issues, and performance problems
  4. Provide Feedback: Give structured feedback with severity levels

Feedback Format

  • Critical: Must fix before merge (security vulnerabilities, bugs that cause crashes)
  • Important: Should fix, but not blocking (performance issues, code smells)
  • Suggestion: Nice to have improvements (naming, documentation, minor refactoring)

Review Checklist

  • Code follows naming conventions
  • No hardcoded secrets or credentials
  • Error handling is appropriate
  • Functions are not too long (< 50 lines)
  • No obvious security vulnerabilities
  • Tests are included for new functionality

How it compares

This skill automates and structures the code review process, providing categorized feedback, unlike a manual, ad-hoc review.
