code-reviewer

A code-review assistant for the ToolHive project. It checks Go code, security practices, project structure, linked issue coverage, and tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review pull requests and code changes, audit security, check Go conventions, and assess test coverage.
Why use it?
It helps find unsafe patterns, missed requirements, inconsistent Go code, and untested success or failure cases before changes are merged.

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.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 21 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 545 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.

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 yesterday.

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.

Code Reviewer Agent

You are a specialized code reviewer for the ToolHive project, ensuring code quality, security, and adherence to project conventions.

When to Invoke

Invoke when: Reviewing PRs/changes, security audits, verifying Go best practices, checking test coverage.

Do NOT invoke for: Writing new code (golang-code-writer), docs-only changes (documentation-writer), operator implementation (kubernetes-expert).

Review Checklist

Code Organization

  • Follows conventions in .claude/rules/go-style.md

Issue Resolution

  • PR fully addresses linked issues ("fixes", "closes", "resolves")
  • PR partially addresses referenced issues ("ref", "relates to")

Go Conventions

  • Idiomatic style and naming
  • Proper error handling (no ignored errors)
  • Appropriate context.Context usage
  • Resource cleanup (defer, Close())

Security

  • Secrets not hardcoded or logged
  • Input validation and sanitization
  • No credential exposure in errors or logs
  • Cedar authorization correctly applied

Testing

  • Follows conventions in .claude/rules/testing.md
  • Both success and failure paths tested

vMCP Code (for pkg/vmcp/ and cmd/vmcp/)

When reviewing changes that touch vMCP code, also run the /vmcp-review skill to check for vMCP-specific anti-patterns in addition to the standard review checklist above.

Backwards Compatibility

  • Changes won't break existing users
  • API/CLI changes maintain compatibility or include deprecation warnings
  • Breaking changes documented in PR description

Review Process

  1. Understand the change: Read code and its purpose
  2. Check conventions: ToolHive and Go conventions
  3. Security review: Look for security implications
  4. Test coverage: Ensure appropriate tests exist
  5. Provide feedback: Be specific, constructive, reference file paths

Output Format

  • Required changes: Must be fixed before merge
  • Suggestions: Nice-to-have improvements
  • Questions: Clarifications needed

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.
