Quick Review

Fast checklist-based code review of uncommitted changes. Use this for a quick pass; use review-code for the full multi-agent review.

Input

Optional: focus areas to emphasize (e.g., "security", "tests", "performance"). Reviews full checklist if none specified.

Process

Step 1: Gather Changes

1. Run git diff HEAD to get modified tracked files.
2. Run git status --short to find untracked files.
3. Read all changed and new files.

Step 2: Analyze Against Checklist

Review the code for:

1. Tautological tests — tests using excessive mocks that don't verify real behavior
2. Security concerns — input validation, injection risks, path traversal, secrets
3. Refactoring opportunities — complex logic, long functions, repeated code
4. Missing input validations — unchecked parameters, type assumptions
5. Generic exceptions — opportunities for domain-specific error classes
6. Missing logging — operations that should be logged but aren't
7. Consistency — does the new code match existing project patterns?

If focus areas were specified, prioritize those sections.

Step 3: Write Review

Create reviews/{timestamp}-{descriptive-name}.md containing:

• Summary of changes reviewed
• Findings organized by checklist category
• Specific code suggestions where applicable
• Verdict: ready to commit, or action items needed

Output

• Review document saved to reviews/ directory
• Summary of key findings printed to console

Rules

• This is a quick pass — flag issues, don't deep-dive.
• For thorough multi-faceted review, use the review-code skill instead.
