code-review-checklist

A checklist for reviewing code against requirements, correctness, maintainability, performance, security, and documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review changes, verify acceptance criteria, inspect tests and edge cases, and check whether code is truly unused before removing it.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable way to find missed requirements, bugs, weak error handling, duplication, and unsafe deletions.

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

code-review-checklist 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.

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.

Code Review Checklist

1. Task Compliance

  • Requirements: Fulfills all "Changes Description" items?
  • Acceptance Criteria: Met?
  • Use Cases: Main scenario works?

2. Implementation Quality

  • Top-Down/Stubs:
    • Stub Task: Returns hardcoded values? NO logic? E2E checks hardcode?
    • Impl Task: Real logic replaces stub? E2E updated?
  • No Duplication: used existing methods/helpers?
  • Error Handling: Exceptions caught and logged?
  • Code Smells: No magic numbers, understandable names?
  • Dead Code: Before proposing a deletion — symbol grepped repo-wide? (callout below)

Before acting on a "remove dead code" finding

  1. Grep the symbol repo-wide — never scope the search to a test directory. Tests are not always in one: Go keeps *_test.go beside the source, Rust puts unit tests inline under #[cfg(test)], JS/TS co-locates *.spec.ts / __tests__/, Python uses tests/, Foundry uses test/*.t.sol. A directory-scoped grep returns "nothing depends on it" precisely where that answer is wrong.
  2. If a test drives it, the fix is not deletion — make production reach the branch (wire the flag, pass the parameter) so code and requirement agree.
  3. Report it as "unreachable and covered by test X", not "dead, delete". A finding can be right about the smell and wrong about the fix.

3. Documentation "First"

  • Directory Docs: .AGENTS.md updated for touched source directories under memory tracking policy (or bootstrap step recorded)?
  • Docstrings: Present for new classes/methods? (Google/JSDoc)
  • Project Docs: README updated if architecture changed?
  • Positional references: If this change touches BOTH an artifact and a document citing it by line/offset/ordinal — were those references re-checked against the final state of the change, and is any pre-edit quotation tagged with its revision? (documentation-standards §4.1) The reviewer owns this one: the author's own check passes even when it ran too early.

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.

code-review-checklist is a skill published in the GitHub repository MatrixFounder/Agentic-development (5 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 21 tokens to every session and 1,045 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.
