requesting-code-review

requesting-code-review is a skill for Claude Code from dork-labs/dorkos. It costs 39 tokens per session (1,673 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for asking a separate code-review agent to inspect completed work against its requirements. It explains when a review is required and how to give the reviewer focused context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after related implementation tasks, major features, complex bug fixes, or before merging to the main branch.
Why use it?
It helps catch defects, missing requirements, and integration problems before changes are merged or spread further.

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

requesting-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 24d 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 — 190 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Requesting Code Review

Dispatch a code-reviewer subagent to catch issues before they cascade. The reviewer gets precisely crafted context for evaluation — never your session's history. This keeps the reviewer focused on the work product, not your thought process, and preserves your own context for continued work.

Core principle: Review early, review often.

When to Request Review

Mandatory:

  • After each batch of related tasks in spec-driven development (/flow:execute) — holistic batch-level review, not per-task review
  • After completing a major feature
  • Before merge to main

Optional but valuable:

  • When stuck (fresh perspective)
  • Before refactoring (baseline check)
  • After fixing a complex bug

Lightweight Alternative

For quick self-review without dispatching a subagent, trace through recently modified functions yourself to verify correctness and completeness inline. Use the full code-reviewer subagent (below) for deeper, more rigorous review.

How to Request

1. Get git SHAs

BASE_SHA=$(git rev-parse HEAD~1)  # or origin/main for full branch review
HEAD_SHA=$(git rev-parse HEAD)

2. Dispatch code-reviewer subagent

Use the Agent tool with subagent_type: "code-reviewer". Supply the following context:

Required context:

  • {WHAT_WAS_IMPLEMENTED} — What you just built
  • {PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS} — What it should do (spec path, task description, or requirements)
  • {BASE_SHA} — Starting commit
  • {HEAD_SHA} — Ending commit
  • {DESCRIPTION} — Brief summary of the changes

DorkOS-specific review concerns to include:

  • FSD layer violations (shared <- entities <- features <- widgets)
  • Transport interface compliance (HttpTransport and mock transports)
  • SDK import confinement — each runtime SDK stays in its adapter directory: @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk → services/runtimes/claude-code/, @openai/codex-sdk → services/runtimes/codex/, @opencode-ai/sdk → services/runtimes/opencode/
  • os.homedir() ban (must use lib/dork-home.ts)
  • TSDoc on exports
  • Tailwind class sorting (prettier-plugin-tailwindcss)
  • Barrel import conventions (import from index.ts, never internal paths)

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.
