If a plan was just written and the user said "crit" or "review", use the
$critskill instead — it covers the full review loop. This skill covers CLI operations likecrit comment,crit pull/push, andcrit share.
Comments have three scopes:
scope: "line") — tied to specific lines, stored in files.<path>.commentsscope: "file") — about a file overall, stored in files.<path>.comments with start_line: 0scope: "review") — general feedback, stored in the top-level review_comments arrayThe review file path is shown by crit status.
Prefer finish stdout when available: after a review round, unresolved comments are in the comments array of crit's JSON stdout (same schema as crit comments --json); prompt has brief instructions only.
When you need to read comments separately:
crit comments # human-readable, unresolved only (default)
crit comments --json # flat JSON for agents
crit comments --all # include resolved comments
crit comments --plan <slug> # plan reviews
crit comments [path] # explicit review.json or .crit directory
Review-level comments are listed first — easy to miss in raw review.json. Uses the same review resolution as crit comment (--output, --plan, daemon session).
{
"review_comments": [
{
"id": "r_f1e2d3",
"body": "Overall the architecture looks good",
"scope": "review",
"author": "User Name",
"resolved": false,
"replies": [
{ "id": "rp_b4a5c6", "body": "Thanks, addressed the minor issues", "author": "Hermes" }
]
}
],
"files": {
"path/to/file.go": {
"comments": [
{
"id": "c_a1b2c3",
"start_line": 5,
"end_line": 10,
"body": "Comment text",
"quote": "the specific words selected",
"anchor": "The sessions table needs a complete rewrite...",
"author": "User Name",

Field rules:
resolved: false or missing — both mean unresolved. Only true means resolved.quote (optional): the specific text the reviewer selected — narrows scope within the line range. Focus changes on the quoted text rather than the entire range.anchor (line comments): full text of the commented lines when placed. When edits shift line numbers, locate content by anchor rather than trusting start_line/end_line.drifted: true: original content was removed or heavily rewritten — line numbers are approximate at best.replies — read them before acting.# Review-level (general feedback)
crit comment --author 'Hermes' '<body>'
# File-level (whole file, no line numbers)
crit comment --author 'Hermes' <path> '<body>'
# Line (single line or range)
crit comment --author 'Hermes' <path>:<line> '<body>'
crit comment --author 'Hermes' <path>:<start>-<end> '<body>'
# Reply to an existing comment
crit comment --reply-to <id> --author 'Hermes' '<body>'
Hard rules:
--author 'Hermes' so comments are attributed correctly.--resolve when the user explicitly asks. Never resolve proactively. Same rule applies to the resolve field in --json mode.Use --json for atomicity (single write, no partial state) and speed (one process). The JSON can come from stdin or --file <path>:
# stdin — fine for short, single-line bodies:
echo '[
{"body": "overall feedback", "scope": "review"},
{"path": "session.go", "body": "restructure", "scope": "file"},
{"file": "src/auth.go", "line": 42, "body": "Missing null check"},
{"file": "src/auth.go", "line": "50-55", "body": "Extract to helper"},
{"reply_to": "c_a1b2c3", "body": "Fixed — added null check"},
{"reply_to": "r_f1e2d3", "body": "Done"}
]' | crit comment --json --author 'Hermes'
For multi-paragraph bodies, prefer --file. A literal newline inside a "body" string breaks JSON parsing, and shell-quoted heredocs make this easy to introduce by accident. Write the JSON to a temp file (use your file-edit tool), then:
crit comment --json --file /tmp/crit-bulk.json --author 'Hermes'
--file - is an explicit "read stdin" if you ever need it.
Per-entry schema:
| Field | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
file / path | string | line/file comments | Relative path. path alone (no line) → file-level. |
line | int/string | line comments | 42 or "45-47" |
end_line | int | optional | Defaults to line |
body | string | always | |
author | string | optional | Per-entry override; falls back to --author |
scope | string | optional | "review" / "file" — usually inferred |
reply_to | string | replies | Comment ID (c_… or r_…) |
resolve | bool | optional | Only when user explicitly asks |
Scope inference (when scope omitted): has reply_to → reply; no file/path and no line → review-level; path but no line → file-level; file/path + line → line.
Comment IDs are unique per session, but the same ID can collide across files. If crit comment errors with "comment found in multiple files", disambiguate with --path:
crit comment --reply-to c_a1b2c3 --path src/auth.go --author 'Hermes' 'Fixed the null check'
In --json mode, set the file field on the entry. Review-level IDs (r_…) are globally unique and never need this.
Plan reviews (via crit plan or the ExitPlanMode hook) store the review file in ~/.crit/plans/<slug>/. Always pass --plan <slug> — without it, crit comment looks in the project root and won't find the comments. The slug is shown in the review feedback prompt.
crit comment --plan my-plan-2026-03-23 --reply-to c_a1b2c3 --author 'Hermes' 'Updated the plan'
crit pull [pr-number] # Fetch PR review comments into the review file
crit push [--dry-run] [--event <type>] [-m <msg>] [pr] # Post review comments as a GitHub PR review
Requires gh CLI installed and authenticated. PR number is auto-detected from the current branch.
--event values: comment (default), approve, request-changes. -m adds a review-level body message.
crit share uploads files to an external service. Review and redact every file, then get the user's explicit approval for that upload before running it. Never upload credentials, secrets, private source, or personal data.
crit share <file> [file...] # Upload and print URL
crit share --qr <file> # Also print QR code (terminal only)
crit share --org <slug> <file> # Share under an organization
crit share --org <slug> --visibility unlisted <file> # Org share with explicit visibility
crit unpublish [file...] # Remove shared review
--qr is terminal-only — skip in mobile apps, web chat UIs, or anywhere Unicode block characters won't render correctly.--org <slug> shares under an organization. Visibility defaults to organization (members only). Override with --visibility (organization, unlisted, public).
