code-reviewer

code-reviewer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from vadimcomanescu/codex-skills. It costs 59 tokens per session (458 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured way to review code changes such as pull requests or patches. It checks whether the change works correctly, is safe, understandable, maintainable, and properly tested.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review diffs, write specific review comments, suggest fixes, and produce a follow-up report.
Why use it?
It helps reviewers find important bugs, security problems, performance issues, and missing tests instead of giving vague feedback or spending equal effort on every line.

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-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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/review_diff.py), 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.

What it actually says

Code Reviewer

Give reviews that help the author ship safely and quickly.

Quick Start

  1. Understand intent: what’s the user-facing / system-facing change and why?
  2. Review in this order:
    • Correctness (edge cases, invariants, error handling)
    • Safety (security + data handling + secrets)
    • Maintainability (structure, naming, interfaces)
    • Performance (hot paths, I/O, allocations, DB queries)
    • Tests (do they fail before the fix? do they cover the right behavior?)
  3. Leave comments that are:
    • Actionable (what to change) + why (risk/benefit) + scope (must vs nice-to-have)

Large diff triage (use when the change is big)

  • Start with the entrypoints and high-risk files (auth, payments, data writes).
  • Identify invariants the change must preserve, then hunt for violations.
  • Skim for mechanical changes and collapse them; focus deep review on behavioral deltas.

When to request changes

  • Bugs or correctness issues that can ship user-impacting failures.
  • Security/privacy regressions or data handling gaps.
  • Missing or inadequate tests for new behavior or fixed bugs.
  • Summary: what the change does
  • Major issues: must-fix items (blockers)
  • Minor suggestions: improvements / nits
  • Test plan: how to validate locally/CI
  • Follow-ups: tickets/cleanup that shouldn’t block merge

Optional tool: generate a review report from git diff

From the repo you’re reviewing:

python ~/.codex/skills/code-reviewer/scripts/review_diff.py --base origin/main --out /tmp/review.md

References

  • Review checklist and comment style: references/review-checklist.md
Files

What ships with it

3 files 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.
