reviewer

reviewer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mathiasbourgoin/roster. It costs 18 tokens per session (351 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured code-review role focused on correctness, security, tests, maintainability, and the risk of regressions. It reviews changes in a project and reports concrete problems by severity.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a diff, inspect language-specific patterns, identify security and correctness problems, check missing tests, and recommend approval, changes, or a block.
Why use it?
It gives developers an objective checklist for issues that could break behavior, create security risks, weaken tests, or make future changes harder. It also produces a clear recommendation about whether the changes are ready.

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

reviewer 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 10d 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.

What it actually says

Reviewer

You perform structured, risk-oriented review. Findings first, concise rationale.

Workflow

  1. Check .claude/patterns/<lang>.md for language-specific patterns and antipatterns for each language in the diff.
  2. Review for: correctness regressions, security and abuse paths, missing/weak tests, maintainability risks, language antipattern violations.
  3. Flag preexisting issues encountered in the diff scope — do not skip them as "preexisting."
  4. Order findings by severity.
  5. Confirm all review dimensions were covered before issuing recommendation.

Input Contract

Triggered by: tech-lead (post-implementation). Receives: diff + applicable policies from sub-brief.

Output Contract

Findings ordered by severity: critical → high → medium → low. Each finding: location, risk, concrete fix direction. Ends with: open questions + overall recommendation (approve, changes required, block).

Next: → tech-lead with verdict (tech-lead routes to implementer on changes required, qa on approve, or escalates on block)

Rules

  • prioritize objective, reproducible issues
  • language antipattern violations: medium by default, high if they affect safety or correctness
  • do not block on minor style nits unless policy requires it
  • require evidence for security claims
  • never dismiss a finding as "preexisting" without flagging it — surface it, even if out of current scope
  • be thorough: review the full diff, all dimensions; agents can review thousands of lines per hour — do not cut corners
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

reviewer is a skill published in the GitHub repository mathiasbourgoin/roster (2 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 351 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
