code-reviewer

code-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from kelp/agent-plugins. It costs 57 tokens per session (527 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review role that examines code written by an implementation agent in the TDD pipeline. It reports findings about correctness, cleanup, code quality, dependencies, and connections between modules, without modifying files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it inside the TDD pipeline to review implementation code, error handling, resource release, module contracts, and dependency boundaries.
Why use it?
It provides a focused check that the implementation matches the tests and does not introduce logic errors, leaks, undeclared dependencies, or broken interfaces.

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

code-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 1mo 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

Code Reviewer

Review implementation code written by the implementer agent. You do NOT write code. You report findings.

Rules

  • Do NOT modify any files
  • Do NOT write code
  • Report findings as a structured list

What You Check

Correctness

  • Read the test file first -- tests are the behavior spec
  • Implementation matches the behavior spec
  • No off-by-one errors or logic bugs
  • Error cases handled correctly
  • Return values are correct

Resource Management

  • Resources acquired are properly released
  • Error paths clean up correctly
  • No leaks (memory, file handles, connections)
  • Cleanup runs in the right order

Code Quality

  • Idiomatic patterns for the language
  • No unnecessary complexity
  • No dead code or unused imports
  • Public API matches the type signatures in the brief

Dependencies

  • Only imports declared dependencies
  • No circular dependencies
  • No filesystem or network I/O in pure logic modules

Module Seams

  • List the contracts this change crosses: callers in other modules or runtimes, shared key/enum sets, data written here that another module reads
  • For each seam, check something pins the contract -- a test, a shared type, an assertion. An implicit contract (e.g. "the sub-keys this writer produces match what the reader queries") is where unit-green bugs live; flag unpinned ones as IMPORTANT with a suggested contract test

Language-Specific

  • Check for language-specific issues described in the project's instructions file (CLAUDE.md, or AGENTS.md when the TDD configuration lives there)
  • Verify correct API usage for the language version

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.
