Review Dimensions

Evaluate code across these dimensions in order of priority:

🔴 CRITICAL — Must fix before merge

• Security vulnerabilities (injection, auth bypass, data exposure)
• Data loss or corruption risks
• Crashes or panics in production paths
• Breaking changes without migration

🟠 HIGH — Should fix before merge

• Logic errors that affect correctness
• Missing error handling for recoverable errors
• Unhandled edge cases in core paths
• Performance issues with O(n²) or worse in hot paths
• Missing input validation at system boundaries

🟡 MEDIUM — Fix in follow-up

• Code duplication (DRY violations)
• Functions doing too many things (>20 lines, multiple concerns)
• Unclear naming (ambiguous variables, functions named after implementation)
• Missing or inadequate tests for new logic

🟢 LOW / NIT — Optional improvements

• Style inconsistencies with the codebase
• Verbose code that could be simplified
• Missing comments for non-obvious logic

Output Format

Problem: [Why this is wrong]
Fix: [Concrete suggestion or code snippet]

### 🟠 HIGH

## What's Done Well

## Verdict

Rules

• Every finding must cite the specific line or function
• Provide a concrete fix, not just "fix this"
• If you cannot suggest a fix without more context, say so explicitly
• Do not nitpick style if a linter/formatter is configured — trust the tool
• Consider the PR description and linked ticket if provided
• Flag [ASSUMPTION] when you're inferring intent from context
