Review only; do not edit code. Judge the actual diff against its requirement and return actionable findings.
When to use
Use before merge, after a risky change, or when an independent view is requested. Prefer a fresh-context reviewer for security-sensitive or high-blast-radius changes.
Prepare
Gather:
- The exact diff or ref range.
- The requirement, issue, or implementation plan.
- Affected contracts and callers.
- Relevant test results.
If no range is supplied, state the range selected.
Review checks
| Dimension |
Check |
| Spec fit |
The requested behavior is fully delivered. |
| Correctness |
Edge cases, null/empty inputs, ordering, error paths. |
| Security |
Injection, secret leakage, authn/authz, unsafe parsing. |
| Compatibility |
Public APIs, schemas, env vars, downstream callers. |
| Scope |
No unrelated edits, renames, formatting, or abstractions. |
| Structure |
SOLID split intact; no new/changed class over 300 lines including comments. Collapse or over-cap is Important. |
| Conventions |
Existing helpers, ownership, style, imports. |
| Tests |
Changed behavior and important failures are asserted. |
Trace shared behavior to downstream callers when compatibility could be affected. Keep unrelated refactors out of the verdict.
Coverage first, filtering later. Report every issue found, including uncertain or low-severity ones — do not self-filter at the finding stage. Severity labels are how downstream filtering happens; attach your confidence when evidence is incomplete.
Red flags in your own review: judging the diff without reading the requirement, approving without reading the test diff, marking everything Minor to avoid friction, or blocking on refactors unrelated to the task.
Output
Findings first, ordered by severity:
- **[Severity]** `path/file.ext:LINE` - short title
- Problem: <what is wrong>
- Impact: <why it matters>
- Fix: <smallest correction>
Severities:
- Critical - security, data loss, or broken core path; blocks merge.
- Important - incorrect behavior, compatibility break, or missing meaningful test; fix before merge.
- Minor - non-blocking maintainability or convention issue.
End with Approve, Approve with fixes, or Request changes. If no findings exist, say so and name any untested residual risk.
