# Code Review Skill
This skill performs automated self-review of code changes before committing to ensure code quality and catch potential issues.
## Purpose
Ensure code changes meet quality standards before commit by performing automated checks and analysis.
## When to Use
- Before final commit of any code changes
- After implementing fixes (GREEN phase of TDD)
- When preparing PR for human review
## Checks Performed
### 1. Code Style & Patterns
- Code follows project-specific patterns and conventions
- Consistent naming conventions (camelCase, snake_case, etc.)
- Proper import organization
- No unused imports or variables
### 2. Static Analysis
- No linting errors (`eslint`, `flake8`, `biome`, etc.)
- No type errors (`mypy`, `tsc`, etc.)
- No security vulnerabilities (basic patterns)
### 3. Test Coverage
- All modified code has corresponding tests
- New functionality includes test cases
- Edge cases are considered
### 4. Code Quality
- No hardcoded secrets or sensitive data
- Proper error handling
- No console.log/print statements in production code
- Functions are reasonably sized
### 5. Documentation
- Public functions have docstrings/comments
- Complex logic is documented
- README updated if needed
## Process
1. **Identify Changed Files**
- Compare against the base branch
- List all modified, added, deleted files
2. **Run Project Linters**
- Execute project-specific lint commands
- Report any errors or warnings
3. **Type Check** (if applicable)
- Run TypeScript/mypy/other type checkers
- Report type errors
4. **Security Scan**
- Check for hardcoded secrets
- Check for common security anti-patterns
5. **Generate Report**
- List all issues found
- Categorize by severity (error, warning, info)
## Output Format
```json
{
"status": "pass|fail",
"files_reviewed": 5,
"issues": [
{
"file": "src/auth.ts",
"line": 45,
"severity": "error",
"category": "linting",
"message": "Missing semicolon"
}
],
"summary": {
"errors": 0,
"warnings": 2,
"info": 1
},
"recommendation": "Ready to commit" | "Fix errors before committing"
}
```
## Important
- NEVER skip this review step
- If any errors are found, they MUST be fixed before commit
- Warnings should be addressed if time permits
- If review cannot be completed, report the blocker
