Code Review Workflow
Goal: Review code changes adversarially. No noise, no filler.
Subagents, when the capability is available, are an important part of this workflow. Use them as directed by the workflow steps.
If you need an explicit user instruction to run them, ask once now for the whole workflow run.
Conventions
- Bare paths (e.g.
checklist.md) resolve from the skill root.
{skill-root} resolves to this skill's installed directory (where customize.toml lives).{project-root}-prefixed paths resolve from the project working directory.{skill-name} resolves to the skill directory's basename.
On Activation
Step 1: Resolve the Workflow Block
Run: python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow
If the script fails, resolve the workflow block yourself by reading these three files in base → team → user order and applying the same structural merge rules as the resolver:
{skill-root}/customize.toml — defaults{project-root}/_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.toml — team overrides{project-root}/_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.user.toml — personal overrides
Any missing file is skipped. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, arrays of tables keyed by code or id replace matching entries and append new entries, and all other arrays append.
Step 2: Execute Prepend Steps
