# AutoReview Context

> **Cross-platform.** Snippets below use bash-style env-var syntax (`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}`). Claude Code's Bash tool runs Git Bash on Windows so these work as-is; on native PowerShell substitute `$env:CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT`, on cmd use `%CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT%`. Plugin requires Node ≥22 — only assumed binary.

Pre-write use: invoke BEFORE editing a file the first time in a session. Zero LLM cost.

```
node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/bin/context.mjs <path>
```

Output is a Markdown list of matching rules with `read: <absolute-rule-path>` pointers per rule. Open every pointer with the Read tool and internalize the convention before writing — the rule body is the source of truth for the agent's behavior, not the trigger (the trigger only decides applicability).

Skip only when no rules exist in the repo or the path is in an excluded directory.

If you need rules by free-text intent instead of by path, use `autoreview:guide` skill (text similarity search) — it filters by relevance, not by trigger.

## Effective frontmatter (post-overlay)

Output shows **effective** frontmatter — remote rules have any `remote_rules[].overrides` entries already merged in.

```
- corp/audit-log-on-handlers   [manual]
    tier: trivial   severity: warning   type: manual   read: /path/to/rule.md
- corp/no-todo-without-ticket
    tier: standard   severity: error   read: /path/to/rule.md
- corp/legacy-perf-rule   [invalid: tier 'bogus' unknown] [manual]
    tier: bogus   severity: error   type: manual   read: /path/to/rule.md
```

Markers:
- `[manual]` — rule has `type: manual`; it only runs when explicitly invoked with `--rule <id>`. The pre-commit hook and default `autoreview:review` skip it silently.
- `[invalid: <reason>]` — rule has a frontmatter value error (unknown tier, unknown severity, etc.). The reviewer emits an `[error]` verdict for every file it matches rather than dispatching to the tier. Fix the rule or its override.
- Both markers can coexist on one rule.

## List all rules

If the user wants to see everything defined ("what rules exist?", "show me the rules", "what rules does this project have?"), invoke with no path:

```
node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/bin/context.mjs
```

Output lists every rule id + its effective frontmatter summary.
