What is ak-dev-review-pr?

A guide for reviewing a GitHub pull request against Agent Kernel's architecture, design, code-quality, and testing standards. A pull request is a proposed set of code changes for review before merging.

Use it to review another contributor's pull request, inspect its related specifications, and publish findings with inline comments.

It helps produce review comments based on the project's own rules and avoids overlooking relevant design documents or existing feedback.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00129	$0.05676
Opus 5.5	$0.00052	$0.02270
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00026	$0.01135

Security

Grade A, and why

ak-dev-review-pr 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 today.

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.

Review a Pull Request Against Agent Kernel Practices

Use this skill when asked to review a specific pull request by number or URL. It fetches the PR with the GitHub CLI (gh), reviews the delta against Agent Kernel's documented practices, and pushes the verified findings to the PR as a single review with inline comments.

This skill is for reviewing someone else's PR, not for reviewing your own uncommitted working-tree changes.

Goal

Produce a thorough, low-noise review grounded in Agent Kernel's own standards — architecture, code quality, and testing skills — and publish it on the PR so the author can act on it, without duplicating feedback that is already on the PR.

Inputs

PR identifier (required): a number (342), a URL, or owner/repo#number. If only a number is given, resolve the repository from the origin remote of the current checkout.
Optional scope hints: the requester may narrow the review ("focus on the session store changes") — honor them, but still flag anything clearly dangerous outside that scope.

If no PR identifier can be determined, stop and ask for one. Do not guess.

Step 1: Fetch the PR Context

Gather everything before forming opinions:

# Metadata: title, body, author, base/head, state, linked issues
gh pr view <N> --json number,title,body,author,baseRefName,headRefName,state,files,additions,deletions,url

# The full diff
gh pr diff <N>

# Existing discussion and review comments — needed for dedupe in Step 5
gh pr view <N> --comments
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<N>/comments --paginate

# CI status
gh pr checks <N>

Then make the PR head readable locally without touching the developer's working tree:

git fetch origin pull/<N>/head:refs/remotes/pr/<N>
git show pr/<N>:<path>          # read any file at the PR head

Never run gh pr checkout — it would switch the developer's branch.

Read the full content of every changed source file at the PR head, not just the diff hunks. A diff hunk without surrounding context is the main source of false-positive review comments.

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.
