Cr General

Run a 5-pass language-agnostic code review scoped to the current PR diff. Use when reviewing pull requests for any language or framework that doesn't have a dedicated skill (Vue.js, Go, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Java, etc.). Use when this capability is needed.

CR-General — Diff-Scoped General Code Review

Review scope: PR diff + directly affected files only.

Follow the review criteria defined in rules/general.md.

Step 1 — Detect project context

Auto-detect the language and framework by scanning:

File extensions in the diff (.vue, .go, .rs, .rb, .php, .java, .kt, .swift, .cs, etc.)
Config files: package.json, go.mod, Cargo.toml, Gemfile, composer.json, build.gradle, pom.xml, pubspec.yaml, etc.
Read the relevant config file to identify frameworks and dependencies

State the detected language and framework at the top of your output.

Step 2 — Get PR context

Run these commands sequentially (no nested substitution):

gh pr view --json number,title,body,baseRefName,headRefName,url — store the baseRefName value
git diff <baseRefName>...HEAD — using the baseRefName from step 1
git diff --name-only <baseRefName>...HEAD — changed files list

Step 3 — Expand affected scope

For each changed file, identify direct consumers (files that import from it) to catch breakage from interface changes. Only expand one level deep — do not crawl the entire dependency graph.

Step 4 — Run review passes

Apply all 5 review passes and filtering rules from the criteria file against the diff and affected files. Adapt the checks to the detected language and framework.

Step 5 — Output findings

Collect all findings with this format per issue:

### [SEVERITY] Pass N — file:line

**Issue:** one-line description
**Why:** reason you're confident this is a real issue
**Fix:** suggested code change

If no issues found: "✅ No issues found — all 5 review passes came back clean."

Show the user the findings.

Step 6 — Autofix

Follow the autofix workflow defined in rules/autofix.md.

Local mode: present the three options (create findings file as cr-general-findings.md, fix step by step, fix all)
CI mode: post findings as PR comments with /fix and /fix-all reply instructions
Do not flag issues that are clearly intentional based on git blame context.
Run everything autonomously without asking to confirm each step (except the autofix choice in local mode).
