review-architecture

review-architecture is a skill for Claude Code from louisbrulenaudet/monorepo-template. It costs 45 tokens per session (2,244 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A review checklist for the structure of a monorepo, which is one repository containing multiple related apps and code packages. It examines workspace relationships, Turborepo task flow, and module boundaries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review repository layout, app-to-package dependencies, package public interfaces, Turborepo tasks, shared scripts, and port setup. It returns a structured plan of suggested changes.
Why use it?
It helps find misplaced responsibilities, circular dependencies, tangled modules, and inefficient build tasks before they make the codebase harder to change.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Privilege Escalation · line 47
    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.
  • medium Excessive Agency · line 7
    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

review-architecture 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 12d 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 architecture

Run an architecture-focused review of the monorepo: layout, workspace dependencies, Turborepo task graph, app vs package boundaries, dependency direction, and module coupling/cohesion. Your reply must be a plan of suggested changes: concise, actionable, and structured-not only prose.

Invocation

Text after the slash command is additional scope/focus - narrow the review accordingly. If none given, use the default scope described below.

Best practices alignment

  • Dependency direction - Apps depend on packages; packages must not depend on apps. No circular dependencies between workspaces.
  • Single responsibility - Each package has one clear purpose (e.g. @repo/dtos-common, @repo/enums-common, @repo/typescript-config).
  • Public API surface - Packages expose a minimal, stable API via barrel exports; internal modules are not re-exported unless intentional.
  • Turborepo - Task graph is acyclic; cache boundaries and dependsOn are correct; no redundant or missing tasks.
  • Root scripts - Single pnpm entry point for common operations; package scripts + turbo filters for scoped work; port allocation is documented and consistent.

Align with root AGENTS.md and app-level AGENTS.md for stated architecture and naming.

Deep technical review

Conduct an architecture-only review. Inspect the following and call out violations or improvements.

Monorepo layout and boundaries

  • Artifacts: pnpm-workspace.yaml, root package.json, apps/ and packages/ directory structure.
  • Checks: Workspace globs (apps/*, packages/*) match actual layout. No app code under packages/ and no shared library code under apps/ except app-specific utilities. Clear naming: front-app (React + Vite frontend), worker-api (API worker), dtos-common / enums-common (shared contracts), typescript-config (TS configs only). Optional: worker-frontend as a second Vite app if present.

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.
