review

review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ariaxhan/kernel-claude. It costs 39 tokens per session (2,019 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-review skill for pull requests, staged changes, or recent commits. It checks automated findings first, then reports only issues supported by a high confidence level.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review changed code for bugs, security problems, secrets, dependency risks, and other issues before merging.
Why use it?
It combines security and quality checks with human-readable review decisions, while clearly marking checks that could not run.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

Part of the kernel plugin — 28 skills, 13 agents, 4 hooks shipped together

Getting it into your agent

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.

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

review 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.

<refute_before_report> Before a finding enters the report, check it against reference/refutation-patterns.md (11 false-alarm families + 5 refutation moves). A finding matching a family needs evidence distinguishing it from the refuted precedent. Severity gates from the same file apply: falsification check before CRITICAL, consensus deflation, authority stripping on CVEs, and the judge's own additions get refuted too. Refuted candidates go in the report WITH their refutations; if the project keeps a refutation-corpus file, append new refuted false alarms to it in the same session. </refute_before_report>

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

review is a skill published in the GitHub repository ariaxhan/kernel-claude (12 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 2,019 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. 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.
