elixir-code-review

elixir-code-review is a skill for Claude Code from existential-birds/beagle. It costs 42 tokens per session (898 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A code-review guide for Elixir, a programming language, covering common style, pattern matching, documentation, and OTP practices. OTP is Elixir's set of tools for building concurrent and fault-tolerant applications, including servers and supervisors.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review .ex and .exs files, including pattern matching, with clauses, GenServers, supervisors, application code, and module documentation.
Why use it?
It helps find unclear code, missing error handling, incorrect concurrency patterns, and gaps in public documentation.

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

elixir-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 1mo 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.

Review Checklist

Code Style

  • Module names are CamelCase, function names are snake_case
  • Pipe chains start with raw data, not function calls
  • Private functions grouped after public functions
  • No unnecessary parentheses in function calls without arguments

Pattern Matching

  • Functions use pattern matching over conditionals where appropriate
  • With clauses have else handling for error cases
  • Guards used instead of runtime checks where possible
  • Destructuring used in function heads, not body

OTP Basics

  • GenServers use handle_continue for expensive init work
  • Supervisors use appropriate restart strategies
  • No blocking calls in GenServer callbacks
  • Proper use of call vs cast (sync vs async)

Documentation

  • All public functions have @doc and @spec
  • Modules have @moduledoc describing purpose
  • Doctests for pure functions where appropriate
  • No @doc false on genuinely public functions

Security

  • No String.to_atom/1 on user input (use to_existing_atom/1)
  • No Code.eval_string/1 on untrusted input
  • No :erlang.binary_to_term/1 without :safe option

Valid Patterns (Do NOT Flag)

  • Empty function clause for pattern match - def foo(nil), do: nil is valid guard
  • Using |> with single transformation - Readability choice, not wrong
  • @doc false on callback implementations - Callbacks documented at behaviour level
  • Private functions without @spec - @spec optional for internals
  • Using Kernel.apply/3 - Valid for dynamic dispatch with known module/function

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.
