Perform a structured code quality review using the Pragmatic Quality framework. Reviews code through a 7-tier hierarchy — Architecture, Functionality, Security, Maintainability, Testing, Performance, Dependencies — and triages every finding as Critical/Blocker, Improvement, or Nit. Use when reviewing pull requests, feature branches, or entire codebases for code quality.
