code-review-practices

code-review-practices is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from armanzeroeight/fastagent-plugins. It costs 51 tokens per session (2,058 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Practical guidance for reviewing code changes carefully and constructively. It covers correctness, design, readability, testing, security, and the goal of helping a team improve rather than enforcing personal preferences.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing pull requests, creating team review standards, mentoring developers, checking edge cases and error handling, or assessing tests and security.
Why use it?
It gives reviewers a consistent checklist for finding real risks without turning review into unhelpful nitpicking. It also treats review as a way to share knowledge and improve maintainability.

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-review-practices 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 Review Practices

This skill provides guidance for conducting effective, constructive code reviews that improve code quality and team collaboration.

Review Mindset

Goals of code review:

  • Catch bugs and issues early
  • Share knowledge across the team
  • Maintain code quality standards
  • Improve code maintainability
  • Foster learning and growth

Not goals:

  • Assert dominance or superiority
  • Enforce personal preferences
  • Block progress unnecessarily
  • Nitpick without value

What to Review

1. Correctness

Does the code work as intended?

  • Logic is sound
  • Edge cases are handled
  • Error conditions are managed
  • Requirements are met

2. Design and Architecture

Does it fit the system?

  • Follows existing patterns
  • Appropriate abstractions
  • Reasonable complexity
  • Scalable approach

3. Readability

Can others understand it?

  • Clear naming
  • Logical organization
  • Appropriate comments
  • Consistent style

4. Testing

Is it adequately tested?

  • Tests exist for new code
  • Edge cases covered
  • Tests are maintainable
  • Integration points tested

5. Security

Are there security concerns?

  • Input validation
  • Authentication/authorization
  • Sensitive data handling
  • Known vulnerabilities

6. Performance

Will it perform well?

  • No obvious bottlenecks
  • Efficient algorithms
  • Resource usage reasonable
  • Scalability considered

Review Process

1. Understand Context

Before reviewing code:

  • Read PR description and linked issues
  • Understand the problem being solved
  • Check CI/CD results
  • Note any special considerations

2. Review at Appropriate Level

High-level first:

  • Overall approach
  • Architecture decisions
  • Major design choices

Then details:

  • Implementation specifics
  • Edge cases
  • Code style

3. Provide Actionable Feedback

Good feedback:

  • Specific and clear
  • Explains the "why"
  • Suggests solutions
  • Prioritizes issues

Example:

Consider using a Set instead of an array here for O(1) lookups. 
With the current implementation, the nested loop creates O(n²) 
complexity which could be problematic with large datasets.
