receiving-code-review

receiving-code-review is a skill for Claude Code from bostonaholic/rpikit. It costs 35 tokens per session (1,428 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for evaluating code-review comments before making changes. It checks each suggestion against the code, project requirements, and available context instead of accepting it automatically.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it while implementing pull-request feedback to assess suggestions, explain whether they apply, and make only justified changes.
Why use it?
It prevents incorrect or unsuitable review advice from being added just because a reviewer suggested it. Each change is based on verified evidence.

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

receiving-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 9d 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.

Receiving Code Review

Verify feedback before implementing. No performative agreement.

Purpose

Code review feedback requires rigorous evaluation, not automatic acceptance. Reviewers may lack context, make incorrect suggestions, or propose changes that conflict with project requirements. This skill enforces verification before implementation.

The Iron Law

Evaluate suggestions rigorously before implementing.

Not all feedback is correct. Not all suggestions improve the code. Your job is to verify, not to agree performatively.

Prohibited Responses

Never respond with:

  • "You're absolutely right!"
  • "Great catch!"
  • "Thanks for catching that!"
  • "Of course, I should have seen that!"
  • Any excessive praise or validation

These are performative, not technical. They waste time and signal you're not actually evaluating the feedback.

The Response Pattern

For each piece of feedback, complete these steps:

Step 1: Read Completely

Read the entire feedback before reacting:

  • Full comment, not just the first line
  • Any linked context or references
  • The specific code being discussed

Step 2: Restate Requirements

Restate what the reviewer is asking for:

"The feedback requests: [restatement in your own words]"

If you can't restate it clearly, you don't understand it.

Step 3: Verify Against Codebase

Check whether the suggestion is correct for THIS codebase:

Questions to answer:
- Is the reviewer's assumption about the code correct?
- Does this file/function work the way they think?
- Are there constraints they might not know about?

Step 4: Assess Technical Soundness

Evaluate whether the suggestion is technically sound:

Consider:
- Will this change break existing functionality?
- Does it align with project patterns?
- Is the suggested approach better than alternatives?
- What are the trade-offs?

Step 5: Respond Appropriately

If feedback is valid: Implement it, then respond factually.

"Fixed. [Brief description of what changed]"
"Implemented. Added null check at line 45."
"Done. Extracted helper function as suggested."

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.
