# Review Pull Request Perform a comprehensive code review of a pull request. ## Instructions 1. Get PR information: `gh pr view $ARGUMENTS --json title,body,files,additions,deletions` 2. Review each changed file 3. Provide structured feedback ## Review Checklist ### Code Quality - [ ] Code is readable and well-organized - [ ] Functions are appropriately sized - [ ] No code duplication - [ ] Meaningful variable/function names ### Functionality - [ ] Logic is correct - [ ] Edge cases handled - [ ] Error handling is comprehensive - [ ] No obvious bugs ### Security - [ ] No hardcoded secrets - [ ] Input validation present - [ ] No injection vulnerabilities - [ ] Authorization checks in place ### Testing - [ ] Tests added for new code - [ ] Existing tests still pass - [ ] Edge cases tested ### Documentation - [ ] Code is self-documenting or commented - [ ] README updated if needed - [ ] API changes documented ## Output Format ```markdown ## PR Review: #[number] - [title] ### Summary [1-2 sentence overview] ### Approval Status [ ] Approved [ ] Approved with suggestions [ ] Changes requested ### Findings #### Critical (Must Fix) - [ ] [Issue description] - `file:line` #### Suggestions (Should Consider) - [ ] [Improvement] - `file:line` #### Nitpicks (Optional) - [ ] [Minor suggestion] - `file:line` ### Positive Highlights - [What's done well] ### Questions - [Clarifications needed] ``` ## Usage ``` /review-pr 123 /review-pr https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/123 ``` --- ## Advanced: Multi-Agent Review For production-grade reviews requiring specialized perspectives and anti-hallucination safeguards. ### Pre-flight Check Before reviewing, check if this is a follow-up pass to avoid repeating suggestions: ```bash # Detect if Claude already reviewed this PR git log --oneline -10 | grep "Co-Authored-By: Claude" ``` If detected, note: "This appears to be a follow-up pass. I'll focus on new issues and avoid repeating previous suggestions." ### Scope Drift Detection Cross-reference the PR diff against the original plan to catch unintended changes. ```bash # Detect current branch BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current) # Search for a plan file associated with this branch ls ~/.claude/plans/ 2>/dev/null | grep -i "$BRANCH" | head -3 # Files actually changed in this PR git diff --stat origin/main...HEAD | head -30 ``` If a plan file exists for this branch: 1. Read the plan file: what was the stated scope? 2. Compare stated scope vs actual `git diff --stat` 3. Flag files changed that were NOT mentioned in the plan Output format: ``` SCOPE DRIFT CHECK ───────────────────────────────────────── Plan scope: [what the plan said would change] Actual diff: [files actually changed] Drift: [files changed outside plan scope, if any] Verdict: IN SCOPE / DRIFT DETECTED ``` If no plan file exists: note "No plan file found for this branch, skipping scope drift check." ### Multi-Agent Specialization Launch 3 parallel specialized agents (see [Split Role Sub-Agents](../../guide/ultimate-guide.md#split-role-sub-agents)): **Agent 1: Consistency Auditor** ``` Focus: DRY violations, duplicate logic, pattern inconsistencies Check for: - Duplicated code blocks (>5 lines similar) - Inconsistent naming conventions - Pattern violations (if project uses X pattern, enforce it) ``` **Agent 2: SOLID Principles Analyst** ``` Focus: Single Responsibility Principle violations, complexity Check for: - Functions >50 lines (likely doing too much) - Nested conditionals >3 levels deep - Cyclomatic complexity >10 - Mixed concerns in single component ``` **Agent 3: Defensive Code Auditor** ``` Focus: Silent failures, masked bugs, hidden fallbacks, LLM output trust boundary Check for: - Empty catch blocks: try { } catch (e) { } // swallows error - Silent fallbacks: return data || DEFAULT // hides missing data - Unchecked null/undefined: user.name without validation - Ignored promise rejections: async fn without .catch() LLM Output Trust Boundary (especially relevant in AI-assisted codebases): - LLM-generated values (emails, URLs, names, IDs) written to DB or passed to downstream functions without format validation; add lightweight guards (email regex, URL parsing, .trim()) before persisting - Structured tool output (arrays, objects from AI tools) accepted without type/shape checks before database writes or rendering - AI-generated SQL or code strings executed without sanitization ``` ### Anti-Hallucination Rules **Verify before asserting**: - Use `Grep` or `Glob` to verify patterns before recommending them - If suggesting "use existing UserService pattern", confirm UserService exists first - Never claim "project uses X" without checking actual codebase **Occurrence rule**: - Pattern with >10 occurrences = established (Suggestion level) - Pattern with <3 occurrences = not established (Can Skip or ask maintainer) - Read full file context, not just diff lines **Uncertainty markers**: - Use "❓ To verify:" when unsure about project conventions - Use "💡 Consider:" for optional improvements - Use "🔴 Must fix:" only for critical bugs/security ### Reconciliation After agents report findings: 1. **Deduplicate**: Remove overlapping suggestions across agents 2. **Prioritize existing patterns**: If codebase uses pattern X, recommend X (not ideal pattern Y) 3. **Mark skipped suggestions**: "Skipping [suggestion] because project uses [alternative pattern]" 4. **Track reasoning**: Document why suggestion was kept or skipped ### Severity Classification ``` 🔴 Must Fix (Blockers) - Security vulnerabilities - Data loss risks - Breaking changes without migration - Silent failures masking bugs 🟡 Should Fix (Improvements) - SOLID violations causing maintenance issues - DRY violations (>3 duplicates) - Performance bottlenecks (N+1 queries) - Missing error handling for critical paths 🟢 Can Skip (Nice-to-haves) - Style inconsistencies (if no linter) - Minor naming improvements - Overly nested code (if <3 levels) - Documentation gaps (if code self-documenting) ``` ### Fix-First Heuristic Determine whether to auto-fix each finding or surface it for user decision. ``` AUTO-FIX (apply without asking): ASK (needs human judgment): ├─ Dead code / unused variables ├─ Security changes (auth, XSS, injection) ├─ N+1 queries (missing eager loading) ├─ Race conditions ├─ Stale comments contradicting code ├─ Design decisions ├─ Magic numbers → named constants ├─ Large fixes (>20 lines changed) ├─ Missing import / path mismatches ├─ Enum completeness ├─ Variables assigned but never read ├─ Anything removing functionality └─ Obvious version/doc mismatches └─ User-visible behavior changes ``` **Rule**: If a senior engineer would apply the fix in 30 seconds without discussion, it's AUTO-FIX. If reasonable engineers could disagree, it's ASK. After agents report findings: 1. Apply all AUTO-FIX items immediately with minimal targeted edits 2. Batch all ASK items into a single user decision (not one question per item) ### Auto-Fix Loop (Optional) For automated convergence: ``` Review → Identify issues → Fix → Re-review → Repeat until minimal changes Safeguards: - Max 3 iterations to prevent infinite loops - Run tsc/lint check before each iteration - Skip auto-fix for protected files (package.json, migrations, etc.) ``` **Example prompt**: ``` Review this PR with auto-fix enabled: 1. Review using 3 agents above 2. Fix all 🔴 Must Fix issues 3. Re-review to verify fixes 4. Repeat for 🟡 Should Fix (max 2 more iterations) 5. Stop when only 🟢 Can Skip remain ``` ### Conditional Context Loading Load additional context based on diff content (stack-agnostic): | If diff contains... | Then check... | |---------------------|---------------| | Database queries | Indexes, N+1 patterns, query optimization | | API endpoints | Auth middleware, input validation, rate limiting | | Authentication logic | Password hashing, session management, CSRF tokens | | File uploads | Size limits, MIME validation, storage security | | Date/time operations | Timezone handling, DST edge cases | | External API calls | Timeout configs, retry logic, error handling | | Environment variables | Presence in .env.example, validation at startup | ### Integration with Existing Tools **SE-CoVe Plugin**: Use for general fact-checking of review claims (complementary to anti-hallucination rules above) **Worktrunk**: For codebase-wide pattern analysis before suggesting changes **AST-grep**: For structural pattern matching (e.g., find all similar try/catch blocks) --- ## Sources - Base template: Claude Code Ultimate Guide - Multi-agent review: [Pat Cullen](https://gist.github.com/patyearone/c9a091b97e756f5ed361f7514d88ef0b) (Jan 2026) - Anti-hallucination patterns: [Méthode Aristote](https://github.com/FlorianBruniaux) code review system $ARGUMENTS
