code-review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from github/awesome-copilot. It costs 27 tokens per session (1,613 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review guide for pull requests in the awesome-copilot repository. A pull request is a proposed set of code changes for others to inspect and merge.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess whether a contribution fits GitHub Copilot users, adds meaningful value, follows contribution requirements, and is clearly explained.
Why use it?
It helps reviewers check correctness, security, repository rules, useful scope, evidence of testing, and maintainability rather than judging changes by size alone.

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 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 today.

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 — 188 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Awesome Copilot Code Review

Use this skill when reviewing pull requests in this repository. Apply the deterministic checklists in .github/copilot-instructions.md first, then use this skill for the editorial and repository-fit judgments that cannot be reduced to schema validation.

Review priorities

Review in this order:

  1. Correctness, security, and harmful behavior.
  2. Compliance with the repository's contribution requirements.
  3. Repository fit and meaningful value for GitHub Copilot users.
  4. Differentiation from existing resources and native model capabilities.
  5. Evidence that the contribution was tested or validated.
  6. Clarity, maintainability, and appropriate scope.

Do not use raw file count as a quality metric. Large generated website changes, mechanical README updates, and other build outputs can be legitimate and should be evaluated according to their source change.

Repository fit

Confirm that a submission addresses a specific GitHub Copilot workflow, technology, domain constraint, or user problem. Flag contributions that:

  • provide generic advice that current models already handle well without meaningful uplift (see Knowledge uplift)
  • restate an existing resource without a clear differentiator
  • use broad claims such as doing everything for every project
  • lack concrete instructions, constraints, examples, or expected outcomes
  • are primarily a wrapper or advertisement for the author's product

Paid or commercial services are not automatically unsuitable. Evaluate whether the contribution provides standalone user value and follows the repository's guidance for paid-service submissions.

Knowledge uplift

A resource is only valuable if it changes what the model does. Well-formatted, compliant content can still add nothing. Apply this test to every agent, instruction, skill, prompt, hook, or workflow that a PR adds or substantially changes:

  1. Picture a current frontier model given the same task with no resource loaded. What would it do?
  2. Identify what this resource makes it do differently. The value is that delta, not the content itself.

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.
