code-review

Orchestrates plan-alignment and quality review via a bundled review workflow that fans out review dimensions (correctness, quality, tests, security, architecture) and adversarially verifies each finding. Use when verifying implementation matches requirements or design/architectural alignment, before merging to main, after completing a major feature, before refactoring, after fixing a complex bug, or when a fresh perspective is needed. Consolidates findings into one report.

Quality

Content

77%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A well-organized orchestration skill with a concrete Workflow launch command, clear sequenced steps, and explicit verification/push-back loops. Its weaknesses are duplicated guidance across two sections and, more seriously, references to bundle files (notably the core review.workflow.js) that are not present in the bundle.

Suggestions

Consolidate the overlapping guidance in "Acting on Findings" and "Red Flags" — both repeat fix-Critical-first and push-back-on-wrong-findings — into a single section to remove redundancy and tighten conciseness.

Ship the referenced bundle files (especially `<base>/review.workflow.js`, the runner the skill's entire action depends on, plus `agents/code-reviewer.md` and `code-review/code-reviewer.md`) or remove the dangling references, so progressive-disclosure navigation actually resolves.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly lean and assumes Claude's competence (no "what is a code review" preamble), but "Acting on Findings" and "Red Flags" duplicate the same fix-Critical-first and push-back-on-wrong-findings guidance, so it could be tightened; not score 3 because of that redundancy, not score 1 because it is not padded with basics Claude already knows.

2 / 3

Actionability

The core action is given as a concrete, copy-paste-ready invocation — `Workflow({ scriptPath: "<base>/review.workflow.js", args: { diffRef, reviewDims, ledger } })` — with explained args and a fallback ("read the file and pass its contents as inline script"); placeholders like `<base>` and `{BASE_SHA}..{HEAD_SHA}` are explicitly resolved with defaults, matching the executable-guidance anchor.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Standalone mode is a clear numbered sequence (pick diff ref → locate workflow → launch → act on findings) with an explicit verification concept ("adversarially verifies each finding") and a recovery loop ("Push back if a finding is wrong — with technical reasoning and code/tests that prove it"), satisfying the clear-sequence-with-feedback-loop anchor; not score 2 because checkpoints are present rather than merely implied.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Sections are well-organized and references are clearly signaled one level deep, but the primary referenced file (`<base>/review.workflow.js`, called "the bundled fan-out-and-verify runner this skill launches") and supporting files (`agents/code-reviewer.md`, `code-review/code-reviewer.md`) are absent from the bundle, so the disclosure path does not actually resolve; not score 3 because navigation is broken, not score 1 because the content is well structured rather than a monolithic wall or nested references.

Description

92%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, third-person description that clearly states capabilities and explicit Use-when triggers with good natural keyword coverage. Its main weakness is trigger overlap with adjacent review skills, which keeps distinctiveness at the mid level.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"fans out review dimensions (correctness, quality, tests, security, architecture)", "adversarially verifies each finding", and "Consolidates findings into one report" name multiple concrete actions rather than vague language, matching the score-3 anchor; there is no higher level.

3 / 3

Completeness

It explicitly answers what ("Orchestrates plan-alignment and quality review via a bundled review workflow...") and when ("Use when verifying implementation matches requirements... before merging to main, after completing a major feature, before refactoring, after fixing a complex bug..."), satisfying both halves with an explicit Use-when clause.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

"before merging to main", "after completing a major feature", "before refactoring", "after fixing a complex bug", and "when a fresh perspective is needed" are natural phrases a developer would say when they need this review, giving good trigger coverage; not score 2 because common situational variations are well represented.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Triggers like "before merging to main", "after completing a major feature", and "before refactoring" are generic review moments that could also invoke the pr-review-toolkit or code-review plugins the body itself defers to, so overlap risk remains; not score 3 because the differentiator (plan-alignment / workflow orchestration) is not foregrounded enough in the triggers, and not score 1 because the workflow-fan-out framing is a real niche.
