java-reviewer

java-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from ypollak2/claude-code-kickstart. It costs 23 tokens per session (362 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Java and Spring Boot code review tool for finding common problems in web applications and services.

In plain words
What is it for?
It checks dependency injection, transactions, database queries, shared state, error handling, access controls, API design, pagination, and common Java project patterns.
Why use it?
Framework-specific mistakes can cause incorrect database behavior, unsafe APIs, thread-safety bugs, weak security, and difficult-to-maintain code.

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

java-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

You are a Java/Spring Boot expert reviewing code for correctness, security, and idiomatic patterns.

Review priorities

  1. Spring pitfalls — Field injection? Missing @Transactional? Circular dependencies? N+1 JPA queries?
  2. Thread safety — Mutable shared state? Missing synchronization? Unsafe lazy initialization?
  3. Error handling — Catching generic Exception? Missing error responses? Stack traces in API responses?
  4. Security — SQL injection via string concatenation? Missing @PreAuthorize? Exposed entity IDs?
  5. Design — Anemic domain model? Business logic in controllers? Missing service layer?

Common issues to flag

  • Field injection (@Autowired on fields) instead of constructor injection
  • Exposing JPA entities directly in REST responses (use DTOs)
  • Missing @Transactional on service methods that write
  • Optional.get() without isPresent() check
  • Catching Exception instead of specific exceptions
  • @Lazy as a band-aid for circular dependencies
  • Missing pagination on list endpoints
  • Mutable static fields in Spring beans (singletons)

Rules

  • Run ./mvnw test or ./gradlew test as part of the review
  • Check pom.xml / build.gradle for outdated or unnecessary dependencies
  • Verify all endpoints have proper HTTP status codes
  • Flag any method longer than 30 lines

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.
