PMA Code Review

Use this skill to review changed code with a high-signal, low-noise process.

This skill is designed for:

• local diff review before commit or merge
• pull request review for changed lines and surrounding context
• repository-wide audit of an existing codebase
• PMA-managed repositories that want stack-aware review, not generic checklist spam

Scope

The skill has one entry point and multiple internal review packs:

• shared review policy
• TypeScript frontend review
• TypeScript backend / Bun review
• Go review
• Rust review
• Python review

Keep the entry skill lean. Load only the reference files needed for the detected stack.

Quick Start

Local review:

/pma-cr

PR review:

/pma-cr <PR-number-or-URL>

Repository audit:

/pma-cr audit
/pma-cr repo
/pma-cr --repo

Workflow

1. Detect review mode:
   • no argument: local diff review
   • PR number or URL: PR review
   • audit, repo, or --repo: repository audit
2. Read references/core-review-policy.md.
3. For repository audit, also read references/repository-audit.md.
4. Detect stack from changed files and project manifests.
5. Read only the matching stack packs:
   • references/typescript-frontend.md
   • references/typescript-backend.md
   • references/go.md
   • references/rust.md
   • references/python.md
6. Review changed code plus the minimal surrounding context required to verify behavior.
7. Report only issues that are likely real and introduced by the change, or for repository audit, issues that are evidenced by current repository code.

Stack Selection

Use these heuristics:

• TypeScript frontend: tsx, React, Next.js, Vite, routing, UI components, browser state, client forms
• TypeScript backend / Bun: Hono, Express, Fastify, Nest, Bun server code, API routes, DB access, workers
• Go: go.mod, *.go
• Rust: Cargo.toml, *.rs
• Python: pyproject.toml, setup.py, requirements.txt, *.py

If the change spans multiple stacks, load all relevant packs and review each changed area against the correct pack.

Review Priorities

Always review in this order:

1. Correctness and regressions
2. Security and trust boundaries
3. Data integrity and error handling
4. Concurrency, cancellation, and resource lifetime
5. Performance and scalability
6. Maintainability and tests

Do not spend review budget on stylistic nits unless they violate an explicit project rule.

Local Review Mode

Use local mode for uncommitted or staged changes.

• inspect staged and unstaged diffs
• read enough surrounding code to validate behavior
• produce a findings-first report ordered by severity
• block approval for critical issues

PR Review Mode

Use PR mode for GitHub pull requests.

• inspect PR metadata and diff with gh
• skip ineligible PRs such as closed or draft PRs
• gather relevant CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md guidance
• review only changed behavior and nearby context, not unrelated legacy code
• when useful, split the audit by concern or stack, then merge only high-confidence findings
• post review to GitHub via gh pr review — request changes when issues found, approve when clean

Repository Audit Mode

Use repository audit mode when the goal is to assess the current repository, not a diff.

• inventory manifests, entry points, CI, tests, and stack markers
• identify hotspot areas such as auth, API edges, DB access, jobs, filesystem, external calls, config loading, and isolated dead code
• inspect the highest-risk modules first
• deduplicate findings by root cause, not by file count
• separate confirmed findings from coverage gaps and suggested next actions

Output Rules

Report findings only when they are strong enough to matter:

• prioritize issues that can break behavior, security, correctness, or operations
• skip issues that linters, compilers, or typecheckers already guarantee
• skip unchanged legacy problems unless the change makes them worse or exposes them
• consolidate repeated instances into one finding when the root cause is shared

For local mode, output:

• severity
• file and line
• issue
• fix direction

For PR mode, output concise review comments that can be posted directly.

For repository audit mode, output:

• findings grouped by P0 to P3
• affected areas
• issue and impact
• dead-code findings
• dead-code removal candidates
• needs runtime verification
• coverage gaps
• recommended next actions

Reference Packs

• references/core-review-policy.md: confidence filter, severity policy, shared review heuristics
• references/repository-audit.md: repository-wide audit workflow, hotspot selection, and report structure
• references/typescript-frontend.md: React / Next.js / Vite / browser UI review rules
• references/typescript-backend.md: Node / Bun / API / validation / DB / async review rules
• references/go.md: Go review rules around context, errors, concurrency, HTTP, and resource safety
• references/rust.md: Rust review rules around panic boundaries, async blocking, unsafe, docs, and API contracts
• references/python.md: Python review rules around validation, deserialization, async, type safety, and command injection

These packs intentionally hold the detailed rules so this file stays small and cheap to load.
