| name | recursive-review-bundle |
| description | Use when recursive-mode work needs a canonical delegated-review or audit handoff. Generates reproducible review bundles for Phase 3.5 code review, test review, or other delegated checks using the repo review-bundle scripts. |
recursive-review-bundle
Use this skill to prepare a canonical review bundle before delegating an audit or review in recursive-mode.
This skill does not replace /.recursive/RECURSIVE.md. It packages the context bundle that delegated reviewers need so the review is durable, reproducible, and acceptable to the workflow.
Canonical Scripts
Use the repo scripts:
../../scripts/recursive-review-bundle.py
../../scripts/recursive-review-bundle.ps1
Prefer the Python script when both toolchains are available. Use the PowerShell wrapper when the delegated path is already PowerShell-oriented.
Minimum Inputs
Provide all of:
- repo root
- run id
- phase name
- reviewer role
- artifact path being reviewed
- exact upstream artifact paths
- relevant audit questions
- required output shape
Add explicit evidence refs or addenda when they matter. The bundle generator will also auto-discover relevant addenda and skill-memory refs when applicable.
Typical Commands
python ../../scripts/recursive-review-bundle.py \
--repo-root . \
--run-id "<run-id>" \
--phase "03.5 Code Review" \
--role code-reviewer \
--artifact-path "/.recursive/run/<run-id>/03.5-code-review.md" \
--upstream-artifact "/.recursive/run/<run-id>/00-requirements.md" \
--upstream-artifact "/.recursive/run/<run-id>/02-to-be-plan.md" \
--audit-question "Which R# remain incomplete?" \
--required-output "Findings ordered by severity"
pwsh -NoProfile -File ../../scripts/recursive-review-bundle.ps1 `
-RepoRoot . `

-Phase "03.5 Code Review" `
-Role code-reviewer `

-AuditQuestion "Which R# remain incomplete?" `
-RequiredOutput "Findings ordered by severity"
Acceptance Rules
- Record
Review Bundle Path in the delegated phase artifact.
- Refresh the bundle after material repairs or scope changes.
- Require the reviewer to cite the bundle path, upstream artifacts reread, relevant addenda, changed files or code refs reviewed, and a final verdict.
- Do not treat a bare bundle file as proof of review quality; the written review still has to use the bundle contents.
