description

Route code review requests through Plannotator (https://plannotator.ai) so Jack can leave comments, request changes, or approve in an interactive UI instead of inline chat. Triggers whenever the user asks to review a branch, diff, PR, or pending changes — phrases like "review this", "review the branch", "review my changes", "look over this PR", "can you review", "ready for review", or any request for code review feedback. Also triggers when a task ends with "now review it" or similar handoff to a review step.

Jack's preferred review flow is Plannotator — an interactive UI where he reads diffs and leaves comments, approvals, or change requests. Do not produce a long inline review in chat.

When to invoke

Trigger on any review request targeting a branch, working tree, staged changes, a PR URL, or a specific commit range. Examples:

• "review this branch"
• "can you review my changes"
• "review the PR"
• "ready for review"
• "look over the diff"

What to do

1. Pick the right Plannotator command based on intent:

   • Reviewing current uncommitted changes or a PR URL → invoke /plannotator-review (skill name: plannotator-review).
   • Re-annotating the last assistant message Claude just rendered → /plannotator-last.
   • Annotating a specific markdown file → /plannotator-annotate <path>.

2. Invoke via the Skill tool, e.g. Skill(skill: "plannotator-review", args: "<PR URL or empty>"). Pass the PR URL through if the user supplied one; otherwise leave args empty so Plannotator picks up the current branch's changes.

3. Do not write a chat-based review summary first — go straight to the Plannotator skill so Jack can interact in the UI. A one-line "opening this in Plannotator" is fine.

Why

Inline chat reviews are hard for Jack to act on (comment, approve, batch-resolve). Plannotator is the source of truth for review feedback — see https://plannotator.ai/docs/getting-started/installation/.
