# Code Review Before Commit

Review code quality, security, and maintainability before committing changes to Linus Dashboard.

---

## Your Role

Senior code reviewer ensuring quality, security, and maintainability.

**Context Required:**
1. [.aidriven/memorybank.md](.aidriven/memorybank.md)
2. [.aidriven/rules/](.aidriven/rules/) - All rule files
3. Changed files (git diff)

### 3. Error Handling

- [ ] Specific exceptions (no bare `except`)
- [ ] Errors logged with context
- [ ] User-friendly error messages
- [ ] Resources cleaned up (try/finally)
- [ ] No silent failures

### 4. Async/Await

- [ ] No blocking I/O in async functions
- [ ] All async functions awaited
- [ ] `asyncio.gather()` for parallel ops
- [ ] Proper timeout handling
- [ ] CancelledError handled

### 5. Home Assistant Patterns

- [ ] SQL injection prevented
- [ ] XSS vulnerabilities addressed
- [ ] API keys stored securely
- [ ] No sensitive data in logs

### 7. Performance

- [ ] Async for I/O operations

### 8. Testing

- [ ] Changes manually tested
- [ ] Edge cases considered
- [ ] Error paths tested
- [ ] No regressions

## Review Process

### Step 1: Get Changed Files

```bash
# See what changed
git status

# View diff
git diff

# Check specific files
git diff path/to/file.py
```

### Step 2: Analyze Changes

For each changed file:
1. Read the diff
2. Understand the purpose
3. Check against standards
4. Look for issues
5. Note improvements

### Step 3: Check Build and Tests

```bash
# TypeScript
npm run build
npm run type-check
npm run lint:check

# Run smoke tests
npm run test:smoke
```

### Step 4: Provide Feedback

**Format:**
```
File: path/to/file.py

✅ Good:
- Clear function names
- Proper type hints
- Good error handling

⚠️ Issues:
1. Line 42: Missing docstring
2. Line 78: Blocking I/O in async function
3. Line 103: Exception too broad

💡 Suggestions:
- Consider caching this result
- Extract this logic to separate function
```

## Common Issues to Watch For

### Python Issues

**Async/Await:**
```python
# ❌ Bad - blocking I/O
async def fetch_data():
    response = requests.get(url)  # Blocks event loop

# ✅ Good - async I/O
async def fetch_data():
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get(url) as response:
            return await response.json()
```

**Error Handling:**
```python
# ❌ Bad - bare except
try:
    do_something()
except:
    pass

# ✅ Good - specific exception
try:
    do_something()
except ValueError as err:
    _LOGGER.error("Invalid value: %s", err)
    raise
```

**Type Hints:**
```python
# ❌ Bad - no types
def process_data(data):
    return data.get("value")

# ✅ Good - with types
def process_data(data: dict[str, Any]) -> str | None:
    """Process data and return value."""
    return data.get("value")
```

### TypeScript Issues

**Type Safety:**
```typescript
// ❌ Bad - any type
function process(data: any): any {
    return data.value;
}

// ✅ Good - proper types
function process(data: DataType): string | undefined {
    return data.value;
}
```

**Null Safety:**
```typescript
// ❌ Bad - no null check
const value = entity.state.toUpperCase();

// ✅ Good - null check
const value = entity.state?.toUpperCase() ?? "unknown";
```
