# Code Review
Review code for quality, security, and maintainability.
## When to Use This Skill
Use this skill:
- After code changes are completed and ready for review
- Before staging changes for commit
- As a proactive quality check during development
## Context
When invoked, examine:
- Current git status: `git status`
- Current git diff (staged and unstaged changes): `git diff --no-ext-diff HEAD`
- Current branch: `git branch --show-current`
- Recent commits: `git log --oneline -40`
## Review Checklist
Examine all modified files and check:
- **NO DUPLICATED CODE!** - Extract common logic into reusable functions
- **Functions 30 lines or shorter** - Break down complex functions
- **Well-named functions and variables** - Clear, descriptive names
- **Simple and readable code** - Avoid unnecessary complexity
- **Proper error handling** - Handle edge cases and failures gracefully
- **No exposed secrets or API keys** - Use environment variables or config
- **Input validation implemented** - Validate all external inputs
- **Good test coverage** - Tests for critical paths
- **Performance considerations** - No obvious O(n²) or worse patterns
## Feedback Organization
Provide feedback organized by priority:
1. **Critical issues (MUST FIX)**: Security vulnerabilities, bugs, broken functionality
2. **Warnings (SHOULD FIX)**: Code quality, maintainability concerns
3. **Suggestions (CONSIDER)**: Improvements that would be nice to have
For each issue, include:
- Specific location (file, line number)
- Description of the problem
- Example of how to fix it
## Output
Provide a structured review:
```
## Critical Issues
- [File:line] Description of issue
- How to fix: ...
## Warnings
- [File:line] Description of concern
- Suggestion: ...
## Suggestions
- [File:line] Nice-to-have improvement
```
If no issues found: "Code review passed. No issues identified."
