ck:code-review

ck:code-review is a skill for Claude Code from bestagentkits/ck-skills. It costs 46 tokens per session (2,169 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An adversarial code-review procedure that examines pending changes, pull requests, commits, or an entire codebase for security holes, incorrect assumptions, and ways the software can fail.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing git diffs, GitHub pull requests, commits, recent changes, or a full codebase, including a parallel multi-reviewer scan.
Why use it?
It helps expose defects that a routine review may miss by actively trying to break the code and requiring evidence for findings.

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

ck:code-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 6d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 200 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Code Review

Adversarial code review with technical rigor, evidence-based claims, and verification over performative responses. Every review includes red-team analysis that actively tries to break the code.

Input Modes

Auto-detect from arguments. If ambiguous or no arguments, prompt via AskUserQuestion.

Input Mode What Gets Reviewed
#123 or PR URL PR Full PR diff fetched via gh pr diff
abc1234 (7+ hex chars) Commit Single commit diff via git show
--pending Pending Staged + unstaged changes via git diff
(no args, recent changes) Default Recent changes in context
codebase Codebase Full codebase scan
codebase parallel Codebase+ Parallel multi-reviewer audit

Resolution details: references/input-mode-resolution.md

No Arguments

If invoked WITHOUT arguments and no recent changes in context, use AskUserQuestion with header "Review Target", question "What would you like to review?":

Option Description
Pending changes Review staged/unstaged git diff
Enter PR number Fetch and review a specific PR
Enter commit hash Review a specific commit
Full codebase scan Deep codebase analysis
Parallel codebase audit Multi-reviewer codebase scan

Core Principle

YAGNI, KISS, DRY always. Technical correctness over social comfort. Be honest, be brutal, straight to the point, and be concise.

Verify before implementing. Ask before assuming. Evidence before claims.

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.
