Code Review

Use this checklist to review changes consistently and flag risks.

Quick scan

• Identify the purpose of the change in one sentence.
• List the files touched and the expected surface area.
• Note any public API or behavior changes.

Deep review

1. Verify correctness for normal and edge-case inputs.
2. Check error handling and rollback paths.
3. Look for hidden coupling or assumptions.

Tests

• Confirm that new behavior is covered by tests.
• Ensure existing tests still pass and remain relevant.
• Suggest minimal test additions when coverage is thin.

Release readiness

• Call out backward compatibility risks explicitly.
• Summarize potential monitoring or rollback steps.
