diff-risk-review

diff-risk-review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Quality-Max/free-qa-skills. It costs 47 tokens per session (642 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A review of the current Git changes for correctness, security, and performance problems before committing them. Git is a version-control system that records changes to a codebase.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect uncommitted changes or a branch compared with its base branch, with findings ranked by severity and tied to exact file and line locations.
Why use it?
It provides a focused second check for mistakes introduced by the changes, including unsafe input handling, missing permission checks, async errors, and leaked secrets.

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

diff-risk-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 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.

Diff Risk Review

A second pair of eyes on your uncommitted changes. No signup required.

Prerequisites

  • None. Pure Claude Code — works in any git repo, no MCP required.

Trigger

  • "Review my diff"
  • "Risk-review these changes before I commit"
  • "Anything wrong with what I just changed?"

Workflow

  1. Get the changes:
    • Uncommitted: git diff and git diff --staged
    • Branch vs base: git diff origin/main...HEAD (or the repo's default branch)
  2. For each changed hunk, review against the checklist below. Only report real findings — do not pad. If a hunk is clean, say so.

What to look for

Correctness

  • Off-by-one, inverted conditions, wrong operator (= vs ==, && vs ||)
  • Null/undefined deref on newly accessed fields
  • Changed function signature with un-updated callers
  • Async: missing await, unhandled rejection, race on shared state

Security

  • User input flowing into SQL, shell, eval, file paths, or HTML without sanitization
  • New secrets/tokens hardcoded (defer deep scans to secret-scan)
  • AuthZ: new route/handler missing an ownership or permission check
  • Logging that now prints tokens, passwords, or PII

Performance

  • New N+1 query or loop-with-IO
  • Unbounded fetch/allocation on user-controlled size
  • Work moved onto a hot path or request thread
  1. Rank findings: BLOCKER (will break / is exploitable) · WARNING (likely bug or risk) · NIT (style/clarity). Cite file:line.

  2. Output:

## Diff Risk Review — 3 files, +84 / -12

**1 blocker, 2 warnings, 1 nit**

### BLOCKER
- `auth/routes.py:142` — new `GET /api/runs/{id}` returns the run without
  checking `run.user_id == current_user.id`. BOLA: any user can read any run.
  Fix: add the ownership guard before serializing.

### WARNING
- `services/sync.py:88` — `await` missing on `flush_cache()`; the cache write
  races the response. Add `await`.
- `repositories/user.py:51` — loops issuing one query per id (N+1). Batch
  with a single `WHERE id = ANY(...)`.

### NIT
- `utils/format.py:12` — dead `import json`, no longer used.

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.
