ai-output-review

ai-output-review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zorost/AI-Engineering-Lab. It costs 37 tokens per session (962 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review process for code, documents, or configuration produced by an AI coding agent. It compares the result with the requested specification, runs the project's checks, and looks for secrets, unwanted network calls, and common AI-generated code problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before merging an AI-generated change to inspect the diff, run tests and other verifiers, scan for secrets and unexpected data sharing, and check for warning signs such as unused code.
Why use it?
AI-produced work can look complete while containing unrelated changes, untested behavior, or unsafe additions. This process adds a human-quality review before the work is accepted or merged.

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

ai-output-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 12d 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.

AI Output Review

1 · Purpose

Make "the agent wrote it" pass the same bar as "a junior hire wrote it", read it, run it, and check it against the spec, because AI output fails in different places than human output.

2 · When to use

  • Before accepting any non-trivial agent-produced diff, document, or config.
  • When reviewing a teammate's PR that smells AI-generated and unreviewed.

3 · Inputs

  • The spec or task statement the agent worked from.
  • The diff or artifact.
  • The project's verifiers: tests, linters, type checks, evals.

4 · Procedure

  1. Read the diff against the spec first. Ask of every changed block: which spec line does this serve? Unmotivated changes are the AI smell parade's grand marshal.
  2. Run the verifiers yourself. Tests, types, lint, on your machine or CI, never from the agent's claim that they passed. The agent's "all green" is a statement about its context window, not about the repo.
  3. Scan for secrets and egress. New endpoints, new domains, tokens in comments, telemetry you did not ask for. AI loves a helpful analytics call.
  4. Run the smell list. Each is innocent alone; three in one diff is a rewrite:
    • Unused imports, variables, and "future-proofing" abstractions.
    • Comments that narrate the code instead of the why.
    • Error handling that swallows (except: pass, empty catch).
    • Dependencies added for one-liners.
    • Config keys that nothing reads.
    • Docstrings describing a different function than the one below them.
  5. Check the blast radius. What runs this code, with which credentials, on what data? Match the review depth to that answer, not to the diff's size.
  6. Require the agent's own evidence. If the workflow produced a trace, test output, or eval score, it must be attached. No evidence, no merge.
  7. Decide: accept, request changes (specific, numbered), or reject. "Looks fine" after 30 seconds on 400 lines is a rejection of the review, not an acceptance of the code.

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.
