review-local

A read-only workflow that reviews changes in a local copy of php-src, the source code repository for PHP, and writes findings to REVIEW.md.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect your current branch against the default branch or another chosen base and identify issues against PHP coding standards.
Why use it?
It gives you a structured check of your current code changes before you send them to others for review.

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-local 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

review-local

Review the user's current local php-src diff. Read-only. Produces REVIEW.md in pwd.

Inputs

  1. $PHP_SRC_DIR — the php-src checkout.
  2. Optional base ref — defaults to git merge-base HEAD origin/master. User can override (/review-local PHP-8.3).
  3. The skill operates against the current branch in $PHP_SRC_DIR. It does NOT switch branches.

What it produces

  • REVIEW.md in the task directory resolved per _shared/task-dir.md (default $PHP_SRC_DIR/.claude/php-core-dev/review-<short-base>/REVIEW.md) — severity-graded findings.
  • If REVIEW.md exists from a prior run at the same path, it's backed up to REVIEW.md.bak before being overwritten.
  • Slug: review-<short-sha> where <short-sha> is git rev-parse --short <base>. If the base is a branch (e.g. PHP-8.3 — any maintained branch from _shared/branch-detection.md), use review-<branch-slug> instead. Slug is written to .current.

Workflow

1. Pre-checks

test -n "$PHP_SRC_DIR" && test -d "$PHP_SRC_DIR/Zend" || { echo "Run /install"; exit 1; }
cd "$PHP_SRC_DIR"
git status --porcelain          # warn (don't block) if dirty

If the working tree is dirty, note it in REVIEW.md's Scope section — uncommitted changes are part of the diff to review.

2. Determine base ref

BASE=$(git merge-base HEAD origin/master 2>/dev/null || git merge-base HEAD master)

If the user passed an explicit base (PHP-8.3, a SHA, etc.), use that.

If no base can be determined (no master, no origin), stop with:

Cannot determine review base. Pass one explicitly: /review-local <base-ref>

3. Pull the diff

git -C "$PHP_SRC_DIR" diff "$BASE"...HEAD --stat
git -C "$PHP_SRC_DIR" diff "$BASE"...HEAD

Capture:

  • Files changed (count, paths)
  • Lines added / removed (from --stat)
  • The full unified diff (for analysis)

If the diff is empty, stop with No changes between $BASE and HEAD — nothing to review.

4. Backup existing REVIEW.md

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.

review-local is a skill published in the GitHub repository pronskiy/php-src-developer (8 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 1,722 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.
