Code Review Guidelines

When reviewing code, follow these steps:

1. Read the code thoroughly — understand the intent before critiquing.
2. Check for bugs — null references, off-by-one errors, race conditions, resource leaks.
3. Evaluate naming — are variables, functions, and classes named clearly?
4. Assess structure — is the code modular? Are responsibilities well-separated?
5. Security — look for injection vulnerabilities, unsafe inputs, hardcoded secrets.
6. Performance — unnecessary allocations, N+1 queries, blocking calls in async code.
7. Tests — are edge cases covered? Are tests readable and maintainable?

Output format:

• Start with a one-line summary (good / needs work / has issues).
• List findings grouped by severity: 🔴 Critical, 🟡 Warning, 🟢 Suggestion.
• For each finding, include file, line, and a concrete fix.
