visual-review

visual-review is a skill for Claude Code from helderberto/agent-skills. It costs 106 tokens per session (972 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A browser-based report of a GitHub pull request, which is a proposed set of code changes, with explanations placed beside each changed section.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to visually review a pull request, connect findings to software principles, and identify simpler implementations. It does not cover bugs, security, or whether the changes match the request.
Why use it?
It helps developers assess design, readability, testability, and maintainability in context without posting comments or changing the code branch.

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

visual-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 5d 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 — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Visual Review

Turn a PR diff into an annotated HTML page you scan in a browser. Each finding sits next to its code and explains the why — the principle it touches and how to simplify — so you decide what to comment on the PR yourself. Read-only: this never posts to the PR or touches the branch.

Sibling of code-review (text feedback) and visual-validate (browser UI). Its edge is the visual artifact and the teaching: findings link to references/principles.md.

The lens covers design and simplification — readability and simplification, SOLID and design principles, testability, reusability, and maintainability: how to make each changed block clearer, more reusable, and easier to test. Bugs, security, and scope/claim mismatches (does the diff do what the PR description says?) stay out of scope — run code-review for those.

Workflow

Phase 1 — Resolve the PR

  1. If a PR URL or number was passed as the argument, use it. Otherwise detect the PR for the current branch:
    gh pr view --json number,title,author,url,baseRefName,headRefName
    
    Completion: PR number, title, author, and URL are known. No PR and no argument → stop and ask for a URL or number.

Phase 2 — Fetch the diff

  1. Pull the unified diff and the file list, then read each changed file at head for full context — a hunk alone hides the surrounding code the finding depends on:
    gh pr diff <number>
    gh pr view <number> --json files
    
    Completion: every changed file read for context (skip deleted files, note them as removed).

Phase 3 — Annotate each hunk

  1. Assess each meaningful hunk against the lens in references/principles.md. Raise a finding only where there's a real observation — a must-fix, a worth-considering, or a praise. Capture per finding: file:line, severity, principle tag, the why (the reasoning is the point, not the verdict), and a concrete before → after rewrite when the fix is actionable. Completion: every changed hunk considered; each finding carries a principle tag and a why.

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.
