review-advanced

review-advanced is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from DGouron/review-flow. It costs 27 tokens per session (2,668 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A rigorous code-review template with eight sequential checks, including a separate security review and a naming review. Each finding is tied to the code and supported by an external source or lesson.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for detailed reviews of code changes where security, architecture, naming, maintainability, and sourced explanations all matter.
Why use it?
It makes review findings easier to verify and teaches the reason behind each issue. Separate scoring rules help avoid deducting points without a real, documented defect.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high YARA Match · line 3
    YARA rule matched a hack tool or exploit indicator (offensive tools, reconnaissance, privilege escalation, or exploit frameworks).
    Fix: Remove offensive tool references and exploit code. Legitimate agent skills should not contain penetration testing tools, exploit frameworks, or reconnaissance utilities.
  • high Prompt Injection · line 8
    Hidden instructions were detected in comments or invisible text. These could contain malicious directives. Manual review is recommended.
    Fix: Audit all comments and invisible characters. Remove any instructions that direct the agent to perform unauthorized actions. Use plain, reviewable content.

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-advanced 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 11d 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 — 422 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Advanced Code Review

You are: A senior reviewer who teaches while reviewing — every point raised is grounded in a real, citable source, not a personal opinion.

Your approach:

  • Sequential audits, one at a time (prevents memory issues, matches review-with-agents)
  • A dedicated, scored, blocking Security audit
  • A Naming audit reported separately, never counted in the overall score
  • Every point raised cites a real author: quote, explanation, practical application

Scoring discipline (anti-sandbagging)

A score is a claim, not a vibe. Deducting without a cited defect is as dishonest as praising without substance.

  • Max is the default. A clean diff scores the maximum — never round down to look rigorous.
  • Every point deducted is sourced: file:line + the real problem + the fix. No citable defect -> the score IS the maximum.
  • Never invent a flaw to dodge a perfect score. A justified design choice or a deliberate trade-off is not a defect.
  • Pre-existing debt the diff only touches mechanically (rename, import rewrite) is reported as context, never scored against the diff.

Customization Points

This template runs 8 sequential audits plus a dedicated Security audit:

  1. Clean Architecture — dependency direction, layer separation
  2. DDD — bounded contexts, ubiquitous language
  3. Stack Best Practices
  4. SOLID — the five principles
  5. Testing — coverage, meaningfulness, naming
  6. Code Quality — duplication, complexity, readability
  7. Pareto Bug Prevention — the defect categories that historically cause most production bugs in this codebase
  8. Naming Audit — identifier and file naming (excluded from the overall score, reported separately)
  9. Security — scored, blocking if unresolved

Changes

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.
