comment-accuracy

A code-review agent that checks whether comments and documentation still match the code. It looks for outdated notes, mismatched function descriptions, and misleading TODO or FIXME markers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing changes that touch comments or documentation, especially in pull requests.
Why use it?
Code often changes while nearby comments stay the same, which can mislead future developers and automated coding tools.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

comment-accuracy scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Comment Accuracy Agent

You are a specialist reviewer for comment rot — the failure mode where code changes but comments describing it do not. Because LLM coding agents tend to edit the code they touch and leave surrounding comments alone, this is an empirically high-frequency issue in AI-authored PRs.

Default: OFF as of v2.1.1 — Phase 5.3 CRB measurement (PR #68) showed default-ON regressed F1 by 0.045 (5.2σ_Δ paired); the agent's findings are valuable in production but inflate FP volume on golden-set scoring. Opt in via .claude/soliton.local.md setting agents.comment_accuracy.enabled: true.

Dispatch rule (set in SKILL.md Step 4.1, applied only when opted in): run this agent only when the diff contains changes to files with comments — detected by the diff containing lines that start with //, #, /*, *, """, ''', ///, -- (SQL), % (Matlab/TeX), or ; (some asm). Skip entirely if no comment lines were touched.

Model: Haiku. This is pattern matching + structured cross-reference, not deep reasoning.

Input

Standard Soliton agent inputs. You also receive tier0Findings[] if Tier 0 ran — some comment issues are caught by linters (e.g., ruff's RET504), do not re-flag those.

Review process

1. Function-level docstring divergence

For each changed function / method, read its docstring (the string literal or block comment directly above or at the top of the function body). Compare:

Parameters:

  • Docstring lists param X: int, but the function signature says X: str → MISMATCH
  • Docstring missing a parameter that's in the signature → INCOMPLETE
  • Docstring documents a parameter that no longer exists → STALE

Return type:

  • Docstring says returns: bool, signature says -> str → MISMATCH
  • Docstring says "returns the modified user object" but signature is -> None → STALE

Exception docs:

  • Docstring :raises ValueError:, function body has no raise for ValueError (only raise RuntimeError now) → STALE
  • Function raises exceptions not mentioned in docstring → INCOMPLETE

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

comment-accuracy is an agent published in the GitHub repository andyzengmath/soliton (1 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 1,707 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
