review

review is a skill for Claude Code from bromso/metapowers. It costs 70 tokens per session (653 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-change review that checks a completed feature before it is merged. It looks for bugs, security problems, poor code quality, and missing tests, then gives an approve-or-request-changes result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a branch or change set, compare it with the intended work, inspect the tests, and decide whether it is ready to merge.
Why use it?
It provides a structured check before changes reach the main codebase. It can catch defects and security risks that may be missed by the person who wrote the code.

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 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 58 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Review

Review the code changes for "$ARGUMENTS" before merging. Check for bugs, security issues, code quality, and test coverage.

See also /coaching:code for a scored coaching report with mentoring feedback to learn from, rather than a merge verdict.

Arguments. $ARGUMENTS may contain the project name and optional flags. Take the first token as <project> and treat --skip-checks as a flag; never include flags in file paths. All paths below use <project>. If --skip-checks is present, skip the prerequisite check and, before writing any artifact, append one line to .metapowers/development/<project>/skip-log.md: - <ISO timestamp> — <skill name> skipped prerequisite check for <artifact file> — reason: <reason or "none given">.

Prerequisites

Read .metapowers/development/<project>/02-build.md if it exists, to understand what was built. If not available, review the current branch diff against main.

Process

  1. Gather the changes:

    • Read the git diff of all changed files (staged + unstaged, or branch diff vs. main)
    • Understand the scope and intent of the changes
  2. Check for bugs:

    • Logic errors, off-by-one, null/undefined handling
    • Race conditions or state management issues
    • Missing error handling at system boundaries
  3. Check for security issues:

    • Input validation at system boundaries (user input, external APIs)
    • No secrets, tokens, or credentials in code
    • No injection vulnerabilities (SQL, XSS, command injection)
  4. Check code quality:

    • Naming clarity — do names describe what things do?
    • Unnecessary complexity — can anything be simplified?
    • Consistency with existing codebase patterns
    • No dead code, commented-out code, or TODO placeholders
  5. Check tests:

    • Do tests exist for new functionality?
    • Do tests verify behavior, not implementation?
    • Are edge cases covered?
  6. Write the artifact to .metapowers/development/<project>/04-review.md with sections:

    • Summary — what was reviewed and overall assessment
    • Issues — categorized by severity (critical, important, minor)
    • Strengths — what's well done
    • Recommendations — suggested improvements

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 bromso/metapowers (3 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 70 tokens to every session and 653 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-21.
