review-checklist is a skill for Claude Code from zachjxyz/jvn. It costs 15 tokens per session (382 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-review checklist for checking implementation changes against correctness, type safety, security, performance, testing, and maintainability standards.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps review code changes, including API routes and server actions, for logic errors, security issues, performance problems, test coverage, and maintainability.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of missed edge cases, unsafe input handling, type errors, slow database queries, and incomplete tests during 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-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 11d 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.

What it actually says

Code Review Checklist

Use this checklist when reviewing implementation changes.

Correctness

  • Logic matches specification requirements
  • Edge cases handled (null, empty, boundary values)
  • Error paths return appropriate responses
  • No off-by-one errors in loops/pagination

Type Safety

  • No any types
  • No @ts-ignore or @ts-expect-error
  • Drizzle query types properly inferred (not manually typed)
  • API response types match contract

Security

  • No secrets or credentials in source code
  • Auth checks on all protected routes and server actions
  • User input validated at system boundaries
  • SQL injection prevented (Drizzle parameterized queries)
  • XSS prevented (no dangerouslySetInnerHTML without sanitization)

Performance

  • No N+1 query patterns
  • Indexes on columns used in WHERE, JOIN, ORDER BY
  • Independent data fetches use Promise.all()
  • Heavy components use next/dynamic for code splitting
  • Suspense boundaries wrap async server components

Testing

  • Tests written BEFORE implementation (TDD)
  • Happy path covered
  • Error cases covered
  • Edge cases covered
  • Integration tests for API routes

Maintainability

  • Files under ~200 lines (split if larger)
  • Descriptive variable and function names
  • Early returns for guard clauses
  • No dead code (unused imports, variables, functions)
  • No commented-out code
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.
