briefbound-pr-review

briefbound-pr-review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CCDawn/codex-skills. It costs 55 tokens per session (1,515 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only pull-request and code-change review skill. A pull request is a proposed change waiting to be checked before it is merged into a shared codebase.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a pull request, diff, branch, or commit range against its requirements, inspect tests and other verification evidence, rank findings by risk, and give a merge recommendation.
Why use it?
It helps determine whether the request is covered, what could regress, which evidence is missing, and whether the change is ready to merge without altering 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

briefbound-pr-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 10d 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.

Briefbound PR Review

目标

只读审阅 PR、diff、branch 或 commit range,判断需求覆盖、回归风险和 merge readiness。先给 findings,不用长矩阵掩盖结论;审阅阶段不顺手改代码。

Briefbound task contract

  • Context Boundary: PR/diff/base-head、需求来源、验证证据、禁止编辑边界、集成目标和排除范围。
  • Output Contract: risk-ranked findings、简洁结论、证据缺口、修复顺序或 merge route。
  • Allowed Action: 读取 diff/上下文并运行安全检查;不编辑、移动 HEAD/index、合并、推送或发布。
  • Success Evidence: diff 与需求已对照,关键证据已检查,每条 finding 绑定位置、影响和验证条件。
  • Stop Condition: 缺可审对象、审查目标/需求无法推断、关键证据不可得、对象漂移或远程/高风险动作未授权。
  • Route Out: 对应开发 owner、briefbound-bug-reviewbriefbound-performance-engineeringbriefbound-planningbriefbound-router、提交/PR/合并准备或 BLOCKED。

统一调用契约

只处理 Briefbound task contract 范围;不匹配时回 briefbound-router 或更具体 owner。用户可见内容默认中文,只报结论、证据、风险和产出;Route Out 仅以 Briefbound task contract 为准,末行写 下一步建议: <一个具体动作>

审阅流程

  1. 定位 PR、base/head、merge-base 和实际 diff;检查工作区/分支是否漂移。
  2. 从用户要求、PR body、issue/spec、现有行为和项目规则中取得需求来源;关键验收项标注 COVERED / PARTIAL / UNVERIFIED / OUT_OF_SCOPEPARTIAL/UNVERIFIED 必须进入 finding 或证据缺口。只有高影响目标无法推断时才回 Briefbound Router 对齐。
  3. 阅读变更及必要上下文,核对状态/API/数据/配置/迁移/用户流程和保护边界。
  4. 检查最新测试、构建、lint、类型、运行时或手工验收;按 CODE / LOCAL_CHECKS / LOCAL_RUNTIME / PACKAGED / REMOTE 分别记录实际证据,不跨层推断。
  5. 按 diff 风险选择相关视角,不固定遍历完整清单;只输出由本次变更引入、暴露或会阻塞集成的问题。性能视角只在热路径、规模、查询/I/O、缓存/队列、并发、包体或既有性能契约被触及时启用。
  6. findings 优先,再给 merge 结论和 route。

效率标注 FAST / CHECK / PROFILEFAST 无需新增验证,CHECK 用结构或确定性计数,PROFILE 需要测量;只为后两类展开。

明显 N+1、循环 I/O、重复全量计算或无界资源增长可用结构/确定性计数形成 finding;声称“更快/回归”必须有可比较 baseline。需要实际 profiling 或 before/after 时以本 skill 为 primary、briefbound-performance-engineering 为 support,不把每个 PR 变成性能审计。

范围内的可操作 review feedback 标注 OPEN / ADDRESSED / VERIFIED / DEFERRED;回复或改动仅到 ADDRESSED,复验才到 VERIFIED。未关闭的 requested change 阻止 READY;advisory 延后写原因和 owner。

Findings

  • P0 BLOCKER:数据丢失、安全事故、核心不可用或不可逆发布风险。
  • P1 MUST_FIX:重要需求缺失、明确 bug、关键契约/测试/迁移风险。
  • P2 SHOULD_FIX:边界、错误处理、维护性或局部回归风险。
  • P3 NICE_TO_HAVE:默认省略;只有能明显降低近期误改或审阅成本时才保留。

每条包含位置、问题、影响、建议和验证条件。纯风格、无行为影响的命名或未被 diff 影响的既有问题不算 finding。没有问题时明确“未发现阻塞性问题”及证据边界。

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.
