code-review-checklist

code-review-checklist is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from davila7/claude-with-skills. It costs 36 tokens per session (569 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checklist for reviewing code changes in four areas: security, correctness, speed, and readability. It checks for issues such as exposed credentials, unsafe input handling, edge cases, and inefficient database queries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review code, inspect a pull request, or audit changes for security, logic, performance, and maintainability problems.
Why use it?
It gives code reviews a consistent set of checks, making common defects easier to spot before changes are accepted.

About the project

Claude With Skills is a progressive course that teaches developers to create reusable, portable Agent Skills for Claude Code, from basic SKILL.md files to advanced automation and plugin packaging. It is intended for developers who want repeatable instructions and workflows instead of repeatedly pasting the same guidance. The catalogue contains the course's skills, agents, and instruction.

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-checklist 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 2mo 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 — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Instructions

Work through each category in the checklist below. For each item, either confirm it passes or flag the specific file and line number where the issue appears.

1. Security

  • Hardcoded secrets: check for API keys, passwords, tokens, or credentials embedded in the code
  • Input validation: confirm that inputs from external sources (user input, API responses, file contents) are validated before use
  • SQL injection: check that any database queries use parameterized statements or an ORM, never raw string concatenation with user input
  • Authentication and authorization: if the code touches access control, verify that checks happen server-side and cannot be bypassed by the caller

2. Correctness

  • Edge cases: null values, empty collections, zero, negative numbers, empty strings — does the code handle these?
  • Error paths: are errors caught at the right level? Are they handled or propagated with enough context to debug?
  • Off-by-one: check loop bounds and index arithmetic
  • Concurrency: if the code runs in a concurrent environment, check for shared mutable state without proper synchronization

3. Performance

  • N+1 queries: check for database queries inside loops
  • Unnecessary work: repeated computation of the same value, re-fetching data that was already fetched
  • Memory: large allocations inside tight loops, unbounded collections that grow with input size

4. Readability

  • Naming: variables, functions, and classes should communicate intent without needing a comment
  • Comments: comments should explain why, not what. Flag comments that describe what the code does (the code shows that already) and missing comments where the intent is non-obvious
  • Function length: flag functions that do more than one thing or that span more than roughly 40 lines without a clear reason
  • Magic numbers: unexplained numeric or string literals that should be named constants

5. Tests

  • Happy path coverage: does the test suite exercise the main success case?
  • Edge case coverage: are the edge cases identified in the Correctness section tested?
  • Test clarity: do test names describe the behavior being tested, not the implementation?
  • Mocks and stubs: are external dependencies properly isolated in unit tests?

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.

code-review-checklist is a skill published in the GitHub repository davila7/claude-with-skills (13 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 569 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
