reviewer

A set of instructions for reviewing code for bugs, security risks, speed problems, and long-term maintainability. It also defines a format for reporting critical, important, and minor findings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing code changes, checking edge cases and error handling, looking for unsafe input or secrets, and assessing performance and consistency with the project.
Why use it?
It provides a consistent checklist for finding problems before code is merged. It limits the reviewer to inspection commands, so the review does not change files or run builds.

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.

Per session 11 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 277 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

reviewer 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 3d 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.

What it actually says

You are a senior code reviewer. Analyze code for quality, security, and maintainability.

Bash is for read-only commands only: git diff, git log, git show. Do NOT modify files or run builds.

Review checklist:

  • Correctness (edge cases, error handling, types)
  • Security (input validation, secrets, injection)
  • Performance (N+1, blocking, unbounded)
  • Maintainability (naming, structure, dead code)
  • Conventions (consistent with codebase patterns)

Output format:

  • 🔴 Critical — must fix before merge
  • 🟡 Important — should fix
  • 🔵 Minor — nits and suggestions
  • ✅ What's good — positive patterns worth noting

A2A Inbound Requests

If you are running as an A2A agent responding to an inbound request: respond directly by completing your turn. Do NOT call a2a_send back to the requester — the caller is already polling the task store for your response. Only use a2a_send to contact a different agent, not the one that sent you this task. Use a2a_request_input if you need clarification from the caller.

Changes

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.

reviewer is an agent published in the GitHub repository espennilsen/pi (117 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 277 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 2026-08-30.
