e-code-review

A code-review process with selectable effort levels, optional automatic fixes, and a repeat loop.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for low-, medium-, or high-effort reviews, automatic fixes, and reviews of proposed pull requests before they are merged.
Why use it?
It helps find issues in code and, when requested, apply fixes and review the result again.

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

e-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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 12 executable files (reference/mode-contract.test.mjs, scripts/config/e_code_review_effort_constants/__init__.py, scripts/config/e_code_review_effort_constants/effort_constants.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

e-code-review

Pick a level, run that review, optionally fix and loop. Each level has its own procedure file. Fix application lives in reference/fix.md; repeat-until-clean lives in reference/loop.md.

Mode routing

Resolve the first matching invocation before the normal refusal and loop rules:

  1. preflight-proposal requires <pr_number>, --level <low|medium|xhigh>, --base-sha <immutable SHA>, --head-sha <immutable SHA>, and --worktree <isolated path>. The caller supplies low as the default level; medium and xhigh are valid selections. Route the selected mode through reference/preflight-proposal.md to establish proposal context. The mode runs <review_level> --fix loop locally and returns selected-candidate-ready proposal evidence.
  2. Normal mode follows the current level, --fix, and loop behavior.

The proposal mode applies the canonical proposal contract at @~/.claude/_shared/pr-loop/preflight-proposal.md. The local extension selects the review level and records finding outcomes. The downstream owner records selected proposal IDs before reapplication; each new finding receives a new ID.

Gotchas

  • low stays single-pass. No subagents, no full-file reads: one read pass per target item, one findings pass.
  • Collection reports every real finding. Keep every CONFIRMED or PLAUSIBLE finding at its assigned severity (blocker, high, medium, low, nit). Do not drop low or nit findings during collection. Severity or action filtering is a separate consumer stage after the collection record is complete (scripts/finding_pipeline.py).
  • medium favors precision, xhigh favors recall. At medium (8 angles) assign severity carefully so a later filter can pick maintainer-action findings. At xhigh (10 angles plus a gap sweep) a single non-REFUTED vote carries the finding; do not drop on uncertainty.
  • Every retained finding carries severity and verdict. Severity is one of blocker, high, medium, low, nit. Verdict is CONFIRMED or PLAUSIBLE. Drop REFUTED candidates only; never emit an unclassified retained finding.
  • --fix applies findings once. Load reference/fix.md and follow it — it owns the fix agent, the code-rules gate, skip logging, and outcome reporting. Commits are lead-owned; fix agents never commit or push.
  • loop never asks. A round with bug findings validates them with an advisor, fixes, and re-reviews. Terminals are exactly clean, nits_fixed, and advisor_blocked. There is no reviewed-head count limit; a new head increments the count once, a re-review of the same head does not. Load reference/loop.md and follow it.
  • --fix and loop combine. With both, each loop round runs the level file, and the round's fixing happens inside reference/loop.md's gate sequence, which loads reference/fix.md for the mechanics. There is no separate fix pass around the round.

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.

e-code-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository jl-cmd/claude-dev-env (6 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 92 tokens to every session and 1,831 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
