classify-review-scope

classify-review-scope is a command for coding agents from coleam00/Archon. It costs 0 tokens per session (443 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that decides which optional review areas a newly opened pull request needs. It examines the pull request's actual description and complete code difference before making the decision.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose whether a pull request needs an error-handling review, a documentation review, both, or neither.
Why use it?
It avoids spending review attention on irrelevant checks while selecting extra review for risky failure handling or changed documentation. Code, design boundaries, simplification, and tests are reviewed separately every time.

About the project

Archon is a workflow engine for AI coding agents that turns development processes into YAML-defined sequences with phases, validation gates, and artifacts. Developers use it to run repeatable processes such as planning, implementation, testing, code review, and pull-request creation across projects. The catalogue entries provide commands, agents, skills, hooks, instructions, and settings for working with Archon.

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

classify-review-scope 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 5d 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

Choose this delivery's review scope

Decide whether the pull request that was just opened warrants either optional review lens. Code, seams, simplify, and tests run on every full review; only errors and docs are yours to select. No one watches this run; your structured verdict is the only thing downstream nodes read.

Ground the decision in the PR itself, not the work item: read the current branch's pull request description and its complete diff (the gh CLI is available; the PR for this branch was opened by an earlier node). Judge what is actually in the change. Do not modify any file.

What each optional lens hunts

  • errors — failure paths made silent: new catch/fallback/retry/default-value code, error translation, recovery behavior, anything where a failure could become indistinguishable from success.
  • docs — shipped documentation changed by the diff.

Calibration

Cost is not the constraint; wasted attention is. A small, mechanical, likely-correct diff — a version bump, a one-line fix, a rename, a test-only tweak — often earns neither optional lens. A substantial or risky diff earns each lens whose failure class plausibly lives in it: when the diff genuinely contains new failure paths, choose errors; when it changes shipped documentation, choose docs. Do not economize on real risk, and do not manufacture scope for its absence.

The test for each lens is the same: does this diff contain material that its failure class could plausibly live in? Decide from what you saw, not from the workflow's name or the issue's topic.

Declare (every turn)

One boolean per optional lens, plus a reasons object with one sentence per lens citing what in the diff decided it — for a false, what the diff lacks; for a true, what it contains. An operator's explicit errors setting overrides that verdict downstream; auto adopts it.

  • errors, docs — booleans
  • reasons{errors, docs}, one sentence each
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.

classify-review-scope is a command published in the GitHub repository coleam00/Archon (23,366 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 443 tokens. 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.
