FXA Quick Review

Review the most recent commit (or the commit specified in $ARGUMENTS) in a single pass, using FXA-specific knowledge.

Step 1: Get Commit Info

COMMIT_REF="${ARGUMENTS:-HEAD}"
git show "$COMMIT_REF" --format="%H%n%an%n%ae%n%s%n%b"

COMMIT_REF="${ARGUMENTS:-HEAD}"
git show --stat "$COMMIT_REF"

Step 2: Read Changed Files

Use Read and Grep to examine the changed files and their surrounding context. Look at imports, callers, and related types to understand the full picture before judging.

Step 3: Review

Evaluate the diff through these lenses, in order of priority:

1. Security

• Hardcoded secrets, injection (SQL/XSS/command), missing input validation, auth bypasses
• Sensitive data in logs or error messages (PII: emails, UIDs, tokens) — note: UIDs and emails in API response bodies are expected, focus on logs and error messages
• Missing rate limiting on new public endpoints
• Session token handling that bypasses established Hapi auth schemes
• New endpoints missing Content-Type validation
• User-controlled input passed to Redis keys without prefix/namespace

2. FXA Conventions

• Raw Error thrown in route handlers instead of AppError from @fxa/accounts/errors
• console.log instead of the log object (mozlog format)
• Cross-package imports using relative paths instead of @fxa/<domain>/<package> aliases
• Circular or bi-directional dependencies between packages/libs — breaks build ordering
• Auth-server code importing from fxa-auth-server/** (ESLint blocks this)
• New code added to legacy packages (fxa-content-server) — should be in fxa-settings or SubPlat 3.0
• No new GraphQL — fxa-graphql-api was removed, admin-server GraphQL is legacy. Exception: CMS-related GraphQL.
• Hardcoded values that should come from Convict config
• New require() in .ts files — use import instead. Existing CJS patterns in auth-server .js files are fine.
• Missing MPL-2.0 license header on new files
• Prefer async/await over .then() promise chains
• Flag new Container.get()/Container.set() usage — linting rules to disallow these are coming

3. Logic & Bugs

• Missing await on async calls — note: some fire-and-forget patterns (metrics, logging) are intentional, check context before flagging
• Null/undefined mishandling
• Race conditions, shared mutable state
• Swallowed errors (empty catch blocks, catch-and-rethrow without context)
• Off-by-one, wrong comparisons, missing break/return in switch
• Hapi route handlers that catch and re-throw instead of letting the error pipeline handle it

4. Tests

Apply the FXA testing rules in .claude/rules/testing/base.md and (for *.test.tsx changes) .claude/rules/testing/react.md — read them before reviewing test changes. Common quick-review triggers:

• New auth-server source files without co-located *.spec.ts; fxa-settings uses *.test.tsx convention
• jest.clearAllMocks() in beforeEach — redundant only when the package's jest.config.* sets clearMocks: true (currently fxa-auth-server and fxa-profile-server); do not flag in other packages without checking their config
• mockClear/mockReset/jest.clearAllMocks/jest.resetAllMocks called inside an it() body — band-aid for state leakage from prior tests or shared setup; fix the isolation instead
• proxyquire in new test code — should use jest.mock()
• New Mocha tests in test/local/ or test/remote/ — new tests must be Jest
• Over-mocked tests that only test mock wiring; mocking internal helpers in the same package instead of at system boundaries
• Tautological mocks: mock returns X, assertion checks for X, no real logic in between
• Untyped mocks where the real interface is available — typed mocks (jest.Mocked<T>) catch contract drift
• Soft matchers used to make tests pass: expect.anything(), expect.any(Object), broad expect.objectContaining({}) with one trivial key
• forEach / for loops driving multiple expect calls inside one it() body — use it.each so each case is independently reported
• Manually bumped per-test timeouts (it('...', async () => {...}, 30_000), jest.setTimeout(...) for a single file) — usually masks a real timer or unmocked I/O
• Prefer jest.useFakeTimers() and jest.setSystemTime() over setTimeout or mocking Date.now directly
• Flag patterns likely to cause open handle warnings (unclosed connections, uncleared timers)
• Flag missing act() wrapping in React test state updates
• Committed it.only, describe.only, , — silently skips the rest of the suite, never acceptable. , , , — flag only when there is no comment explaining the skip; a justified skip (ideally with a Jira/issue reference) is acceptable

5. Database Migrations

• Edits to existing published migration files — CRITICAL, never allowed
• New migration without corresponding rollback file
• Verify test DB patches are aligned with current test DB state (/fxa-shared/test/db/models/**/*.sql)
• DELETE/UPDATE without WHERE clause
• ALTER TABLE on large tables without online DDL consideration
• Index changes bundled with schema changes — should be separate migrations
• Data type changes that could truncate data

6. Migration Direction

• Mocha → Jest (no new Mocha tests)
• proxyquire → jest.mock()
• Callbacks → async/await
• fxa-shared → libs/* (migration in progress, check both locations for existing code before adding new)

7. AI Slop Detection

• Overly verbose or obvious comments that describe what the code does, not why
• Unnecessary abstractions or helper functions for one-time operations
• Excessive error handling for scenarios that cannot happen
• Redundant validation or fallbacks that duplicate framework guarantees
• Generic variable names or boilerplate patterns that suggest auto-generated code

Step 4: Output

Commit Summary

Commit: hash Author: name Message: commit message Files Changed: count

Changes Overview

Write a brief summary of what the commit does based on the diff. Do not repeat the commit message.

Issues Found

Use a table with columns: #, Severity, Category, File, Line, Issue, Recommendation.

Severity definitions:

• CRITICAL — security vulnerabilities, data loss, auth bypasses, editing published migrations. Must fix.
• HIGH — bugs that will cause production issues, missing auth schemes on routes. Should fix.
• MEDIUM — convention violations, code quality, moderate risk. Consider fixing.
• LOW — style, minor improvements. Optional.

If no issues are found, skip the table and write: "No issues found."

Verdict

Recommendation: APPROVE, REQUEST CHANGES, or NEEDS DISCUSSION.

Include blocking issue count (CRITICAL + HIGH) and total issue count.

If clean: "This commit is ready to merge." If not: "Please address the CRITICAL and HIGH issues before merging."

Guidelines

• Be pragmatic, not pedantic. Flag real problems, not style preferences.
• Consider the context — read surrounding code before flagging something.
• Do not flag missing tests for trivial changes (config values, enum additions, comment updates).
• One or two missing edge-case tests is MEDIUM at most, not HIGH.
• Always explain WHY something is a problem, not just what.
• If the commit is clean, say so clearly and approve. A short review is a good review.
