common-review-policy

common-review-policy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. It costs 50 tokens per session (967 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository review policy that fixes the checks, order, severity levels, skipped paths, limit on minor comments, and approval rules for pull requests. A pull request is a proposed code change waiting to be reviewed before merging.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write or audit a review-policy file, standardise automated code reviews, classify findings, and define who must approve changes.
Why use it?
It makes reviews consistent across reviewers and days, reducing noisy or conflicting findings. The policy also separates correctness, security, testing, and compliance checks.

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

common-review-policy 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Review Policy Standard

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Every pull request gets the same passes in the same order. A review that varies by reviewer or by day is not a control.

1. The Policy File

  • Location: docs/review-policy.md, tracked in the repository and reviewed like code.
  • code-review and review-ticket load it when present; its severity and skip rules override their defaults.
  • Owned by the technical lead. Absent the file, the workflow defaults apply and the review says so.
  • Load references/review-policy-template.md when drafting or auditing the file.

2. Required Passes

Declare the passes and their order. Each pass names what it checks and what it explicitly ignores.

Pass Checks Out of scope
Correctness logic, edge cases, requirement coverage style
Security injection, secrets, authorization, trust boundaries theoretical risk with no path
Tests new logic covered, failure paths asserted coverage percentage targets
Compliance audit, data classification, licence product decisions

3. Severity Ladder

  • Blocker: merge causes a defect, breach, or data loss. Concrete path required.
  • Major: real risk or requirement gap the author must resolve or explicitly accept.
  • Nit: everything else, including style, naming, and preference. Minor and Suggestion collapse into Nit.
  • Confidence: a finding without evidence is needs validation, never a silent drop and never a Blocker.
  • One ladder per repository. Workflows that use a longer list map onto these three before publishing.

4. Noise Control

  • Skip list: generated code, vendored dependencies, lockfiles, and snapshots. Name them as globs.
  • Nit cap: a fixed maximum per review. Over the cap, keep the highest-signal nits and drop the rest.
  • Lead with risk: Blocker and Major first, nits last, praise never.
  • Deduplicate by root cause: one finding per cause, listing the affected locations.

5. Tuning and Feedback

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.
