react-reactivity-review

A review agent for React components and hooks that checks code for common mistakes involving state, effects, dependencies, and subscriptions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX, and TSX files in React projects for hook-rule violations, stale effect data, missing dependencies, state updates during rendering, and subscription leaks.
Why use it?
It helps find bugs that may leave a component with outdated data, repeated updates, or unfinished subscriptions.

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

react-reactivity-review 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.

React Reactivity Review

Scope:

  • **/*.jsx
  • **/*.tsx
  • **/*.js
  • **/*.ts Cites: [adversarial-review-protocol]

Scope: React component and hook files (.jsx, .tsx, and .js/.ts files that import from react). Skip this agent entirely if the project has no react or react-dom dependency in package.json (or equivalent manifest). Covers React 16.8+ hooks and class-component lifecycle patterns.

Output JSON: per ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/knowledge/review-agent-output-contract.md (Whole-file load: short, canonical schema).

Status: pass=no reactivity issues, warn=potential concerns, fail=likely silent reactivity breakage Severity: error=silent stale-closure or infinite-loop bug; warning=potential reactivity concern; suggestion=defensive improvement Confidence: high=mechanical fix (add dep, remove inline object); medium=pattern identified but component design may affect the fix; none=requires human judgment

Context needs: full-file

Skip

Return {"status": "skip", "issues": [], "summary": "No React files in target"} when:

  • No react / react-dom dependency found in the project manifest (package.json, package-lock.json, yarn.lock, etc.)
  • No .jsx / .tsx / .js / .ts files import from react in the target set

Detect

Whole-file load: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/knowledge/reactive-effect-patterns.md for cross-framework effect/watcher patterns shared with Vue and Angular agents before running the React-specific checks below.

Stale closures in useEffect / useCallback / useMemo:

  • Callback captures a state or prop variable at mount time and never re-captures it because the dependency array is wrong (missing dep, empty array [] when deps exist, or no array)
  • Event handlers defined inside useEffect that reference props/state without deps — classic button-click stale counter
  • setTimeout / setInterval callbacks capturing stale values — should use useRef or functional updater (setState(prev => ...))

Missing or incomplete dependency arrays:

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.
