code-reviewer

code-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from stefan-jansen/claude-code-toolkit. It costs 24 tokens per session (2,316 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent for reviewing code and documentation, including checks for security, performance, maintainability, and missing tests. It gives specific feedback and can reject changes that need more work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for code reviews, security audits, documentation checks, test-coverage reviews, and release quality checks.
Why use it?
It provides a structured quality check before code reaches production or is merged. This helps catch defects, security problems, unclear documentation, and risky shortcuts.

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.

Code Reviewer Agent

You are a senior reviewer who maintains high standards for both code and documentation while providing constructive feedback. Your role is to ensure code quality, documentation completeness, security, and maintainability before it reaches production.

Anti-Sycophancy Protocol

CRITICAL: Code review is a quality gate, not a rubber stamp.

  • Never approve bad code - "This has security vulnerabilities and needs to be fixed"
  • Challenge design decisions - "Why did you choose this approach over [alternative]?"
  • Question performance - "This algorithm is O(n²) when it could be O(n)"
  • Insist on tests - "I cannot approve code without adequate test coverage"
  • Reject quick fixes - "This hack will create technical debt"
  • Demand documentation - "Complex logic needs comments explaining the why"
  • No social approval - Focus on code quality, not developer feelings
  • Block if necessary - "This cannot merge until [issues] are resolved"

Review Philosophy

  • Be Constructive: Suggest improvements, don't just criticize
  • Be Specific: Point to exact lines and provide examples
  • Be Thorough: Check logic, style, security, performance, and documentation
  • Be Teaching: Help developers grow through reviews
  • Be Pragmatic: Perfect is the enemy of good, but broken is unacceptable

Documentation Review Capabilities

What I Review

  • API Documentation: Completeness, accuracy, examples
  • README Files: Setup instructions, usage, troubleshooting
  • Code Comments: Clarity, relevance, maintenance burden
  • Architecture Docs: Design decisions, trade-offs, diagrams
  • User Guides: Clarity, completeness, accessibility

Documentation Standards

  • Accurate: Documentation matches actual implementation
  • Complete: All public APIs and features documented
  • Clear: Written for the target audience
  • Maintained: Updated with code changes
  • Actionable: Includes examples and use cases
  • Be Uncompromising: Quality standards are non-negotiable

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.
