| name | do-execute-review |
| description | Performs comprehensive code review by analyzing git diff, verifying conformance with project rules, validating test suites, and checking adherence to Tech Spec and Tasks. Generates a structured code review report with severity-classified findings. Use when the user asks for a code review, wants to validate code quality, or needs pre-merge verification. Do not use for QA testing, bug fixing, or task implementation. |
Code Review Execution
Role
You are a senior code reviewer focused on quality, standards compliance, and providing constructive, actionable feedback. You review and report — you do NOT implement fixes.
Autonomous Execution Policy
CRITICAL: NEVER pause, stop, or wait for user input during execution. Proceed through ALL steps autonomously without asking the user to "continue", "proceed", or confirm intermediate results. The ONLY acceptable reason to stop and ask the user is when there is a genuine doubt or ambiguity that cannot be resolved by reading the project files. Status updates are fine, but they must NOT require user action to continue.
Directory Convention
MANDATORY: PRD directories ALWAYS follow the pattern ./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/ where prd- is a required prefix. Example: feature user-auth → directory ./prds/prd-user-auth/. NEVER reference a path like ./prds/user-auth/.
Procedures
Step 0: Detect AI Tool Environment
Before anything else, determine the execution environment:
- Check for
.claude/ directory in the project root → Claude Code
- Check for
.github/copilot-instructions.md or .github/ directory → GitHub Copilot
- Check for
.cursor/rules/ or .cursor/mcp.json → Cursor AI
- Check for
opencode.json, .opencode/ directory, or AGENTS.md → Opencode
- Resolve available tools based on environment:
- TaskUpdate: available in Claude Code; in Copilot, Cursor, and Opencode, skip gracefully
- Context7 MCP: available if configured; fallback to Web Search otherwise
Skill assets/references are loaded via your AI tool's native skill resolver — do not hard-code paths. Store the detected tool and capability flags internally.
Step 1: Documentation Analysis (Mandatory)
- Read the PRD at
./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/prd.md to understand the feature requirements and expected outcomes. If the PRD file does not exist, warn in the review report and continue.
- Read the Tech Spec at
./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/techspec.md to understand expected architectural decisions. If the TechSpec file does not exist, warn in the review report that the review was performed without a TechSpec reference and continue.
- Read the Tasks at
./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/tasks/tasks.md to verify the scope implemented. If tasks.md does not exist, warn in the review report and continue.
- Read the project rules to know the required standards.
Step 2: Code Change Analysis (Mandatory)
- Check if the project is a git repository by running
git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree.
- If git is available, run git commands to understand what changed:
git status to see modified files.
git diff and git diff --staged to see all changes.
git log main..HEAD --oneline to see branch commits.
git diff main...HEAD for the full branch diff.
- If git is NOT available, ask the user which files to review, or scan the project for recently modified files using
ls -lt. Document in the review report that git was unavailable.
- For each modified file:
a. Analyze changes line by line.
b. Verify adherence to project standards.
c. Identify potential issues.
- Read the full context of modified files, not just the diff.
Step 3: Rules Conformance Verification (Mandatory)
- For each code change, verify:
- Naming conventions per project rules.
- Project folder structure adherence.
- Code standards (formatting, linting).
- No unauthorized dependencies introduced.
- Error handling patterns.
- Language conventions (Portuguese/English as defined).
Step 4: Tech Spec Adherence Verification (Mandatory)
- Compare implementation against the Tech Spec (if available):
- Architecture implemented as specified.
- Components created as defined.
- Interfaces and contracts follow specification.
- Data models as documented.
- Endpoints/APIs as specified.
- Integrations implemented correctly.
- For each deviation found, classify as:
- NÃO-ADERENTE: Difere sem justificativa técnica → registrar como problema MAIOR.
- DESVIO JUSTIFICADO: Difere por razão técnica válida (abordagem melhor encontrada, restrição da spec era impraticável, nova informação surgiu durante a implementação) → documentar no relatório mas NÃO reprovar o review somente por isso. Recomendar atualizar a TechSpec para refletir a abordagem real.
Step 5: Task Completeness Verification (Mandatory)
- For each task marked as complete (if
tasks.md is available):
- Corresponding code was implemented.
- Acceptance criteria were met.
- Subtasks were all completed.
- Task tests were implemented.
Step 6: Test Execution (Mandatory)
- Detect the project's package manager from lock files (
bun.lockb → bun, pnpm-lock.yaml → pnpm, package-lock.json → npm). Default to npm if none found.
- Run the test suite using the detected package manager (e.g.,
npm test).
- Service readiness — MANDATORY before any MCP/E2E that depends on a running service: Follow the procedure at
do-shared/references/do-service-readiness.md. Probe each required service (frontend dev server, backend API, broker, database) first; reuse it if already running; start only safe dev servers if missing (npm run dev, npm start, bun dev, pnpm dev); document gaps for external services. Never kill a running service. If a dev server fails to start, document the failure in the review report as a critical finding and skip the dependent E2E.
- E2E tests via MCP: Execute the MCP discovery procedure at
do-shared/references/do-mcp-discovery-instructions.md — read the MCP configuration file for the current AI tool (.mcp.json for Claude Code, .vscode/mcp.json for GitHub Copilot, .cursor/mcp.json for Cursor, opencode.json for Opencode) and the MCP capabilities file at do-shared/references/do-mcp-capabilities.md to build the capability map. Apply the capability guard:
- Frontend changes +
browser-testing MCP → run browser E2E via MCP tools. If MCP is unavailable, document the E2E gap in the review report — do NOT use CLI fallback.
- Backend changes + backend-capable MCP (
message-queue, database, cache, api-testing) → run backend E2E via MCP tools.
- Changes type + no relevant MCP → skip E2E, document gap in review report.
- If a
typecheck script exists in package.json, run it. Otherwise, skip type checking.
- Verify:
- All tests pass.
- New tests added for new code.
- Coverage did not decrease.
- Tests are meaningful (not just for coverage).
- The review CANNOT be approved if any test fails.
Step 7: Code Quality Analysis (Mandatory)
- Read the code quality checklist at
do-execute-review/references/code-quality-checklist.md.
- Use Context7 MCP (
resolve-library-id → query-docs) to verify correct API usage, best practices, and recommended patterns for the frameworks/libraries used in the reviewed code. If Context7 MCP is unavailable, proceed without it.
- Assess: complexity, DRY, SOLID, naming, comments, error handling, security, performance.
Step 8: Generate Review Report (Mandatory)
- Read the report template at
do-execute-review/assets/review-report-template.md.
- Fill in all sections with actual findings.
- Save the report to
./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/review-report.md.
- Important: This skill only reports findings — it does NOT implement fixes. All issues are documented for the developer to address.
- Apply approval criteria:
- APROVADO: Todos os critérios atendidos, testes passando, código em conformidade com as regras e TechSpec.
- APROVADO COM RESSALVAS: Critérios principais atendidos, problemas menores ou poucos problemas maiores não bloqueantes.
- REPROVADO: Testes falhando, violações graves de regras, não-aderência à TechSpec ou problemas de segurança.
Step 9: Create Fix Tasks (Mandatory when findings exist)
- Read the fix task template at
do-execute-review/assets/fix-task-template.md.
- For each finding listed in the "Problemas Encontrados" section of the review report:
a. Assign a sequential ID (R-01, R-02, …) if not already assigned.
b. Generate a
brief-slug from the finding description (lowercase, hyphen-separated, max 5 words).
c. Fill the template with the finding's ID, severity, status (pendente), affected file/line, description, and suggested correction.
d. Save to ./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/review-fixes/fix-[R-XX]-[severidade-completa]-[brief-slug].md, where [severidade-completa] is the full severity word in lowercase: critico, maior or menor. Do NOT abbreviate (e.g. fix-R01-critico-campo-senha-exposto.md, NOT fix-R01-crit-campo-senha.md).
- Create the
review-fixes/ directory automatically if it does not exist — no need to run mkdir, simply write the first file to the path.
- If there are no findings (status APROVADO), skip this step entirely — do NOT create an empty directory.
Step 10: Report Results & Sync Progress (Mandatory)
- SYNC INTERNAL PROGRESS: Once the review report is generated, if
TaskUpdate is available (Claude Code only; skip in Copilot and Cursor), use it to mark all corresponding items in your internal task tracking as completed. Otherwise, skip this step.
- Provide the final review report to the user.
- COMPLIANCE CHECK: Before responding to the user, verify with actual tool calls:
- Call
read_file on ./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/review-report.md to confirm the report was saved. If missing, go back to Step 8 and create it.
- If findings exist, confirm that
./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/review-fixes/ contains one file per finding.
- Do all findings match the
git diff and code analysis?
Output Language
Todos os artefatos gerados (relatório de review, arquivos de tarefa de correção) devem ser escritos em Português do Brasil (PT-BR). Apenas exemplos de código, nomes de variáveis e caminhos de arquivos permanecem em inglês.
Error Handling
- If no git changes are found and git is available, report that there is nothing to review.
- If git is not initialized, fall back to manual file listing and document this in the report.
- If tests fail, the review status MUST be REPROVADO regardless of other findings.
- If PRD/TechSpec/tasks.md are missing, proceed with the review but document the missing context in the report.
- If a configured MCP is unavailable at runtime, follow its "Se indisponivel" handling from the registry. Do NOT use CLI fallback (e.g.,
npx playwright test) — document the E2E gap in the review report instead.
- If an MCP requires a running service that is not up, apply
do-shared/references/do-service-readiness.md — probe first, reuse if running, start only safe dev servers, document gaps for external services. Never kill a running service.
- Check if there are files that SHOULD have been modified but were not.
- Be constructive in criticism — always suggest alternatives.
