ce:review

ce:review is a skill for Claude Code from marcusrbrown/systematic. It costs 36 tokens per session (16,035 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured code-review workflow that checks code changes with several focused reviewers and combines their findings into one report.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a branch, pull request, or set of changes, optionally check requirements from a plan, and report issues or apply automatic fixes.
Why use it?
It reduces duplicated or low-confidence feedback and gives you a single review before you open a pull request.

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 →

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

ce: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 22d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (references/resolve-base.sh, scripts/ensure-ignore.mjs, scripts/validate-review.mjs), 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 — 799 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Code Review

Reviews code changes using dynamically selected reviewer personas. Spawns parallel sub-agents that return structured JSON, then merges and deduplicates findings into a single report.

When to Use

  • Before creating a PR
  • After completing a task during iterative implementation
  • When feedback is needed on any code changes
  • Can be invoked standalone
  • Can run as a read-only or autofix review step inside larger workflows

Argument Parsing

Parse $ARGUMENTS for the following optional tokens. Strip each recognized token before interpreting the remainder as the PR number, GitHub URL, or branch name.

Token Example Effect
mode:autofix mode:autofix Select autofix mode (see Mode Detection below)
mode:report-only mode:report-only Select report-only mode
mode:headless mode:headless Select headless mode for programmatic callers (see Mode Detection below)
base:<sha-or-ref> base:abc1234 or base:origin/main Skip scope detection — use this as the diff base directly
plan:<path> plan:docs/plans/2026-03-25-001-feat-foo-plan.md Load this plan for requirements verification

All tokens are optional. Each one present means one less thing to infer. When absent, fall back to existing behavior for that stage.

Conflicting mode flags: If multiple mode tokens appear in arguments, stop and do not dispatch agents. If mode:headless is one of the conflicting tokens, emit the headless error envelope: Review failed (headless mode). Reason: conflicting mode flags — <mode_a> and <mode_b> cannot be combined. Otherwise emit the generic form: Review failed. Reason: conflicting mode flags — <mode_a> and <mode_b> cannot be combined.

Mode Detection

Mode When Behavior
Interactive (default) No mode token present Review, apply safe_auto fixes automatically, present findings, ask for policy decisions on gated/manual findings, and optionally continue into fix/push/PR next steps
Autofix mode:autofix in arguments No user interaction. Review, apply only policy-allowed safe_auto fixes, re-review in bounded rounds, write a run artifact, and emit residual downstream work when needed
Report-only mode:report-only in arguments Strictly read-only. Review and report only, then stop with no edits, artifacts, todos, commits, pushes, or PR actions
Headless mode:headless in arguments Programmatic mode for skill-to-skill invocation. Apply safe_auto fixes silently (single pass), return all other findings as structured text output, write run artifacts, skip todos, and return "Review complete" signal. No interactive prompts.

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.
