Dev Review Response
Use this skill when responding to review feedback.
Workflow
- Read all feedback before editing.
- Group comments by required behavior, not by comment order.
- Verify each claim against the current codebase.
- Decide for each item:
- fix now
- ask clarification
- explain why the suggestion is not applicable
- defer with a concrete reason
- Implement one logical group at a time.
- Run focused verification after each group.
- Summarize exactly which comments were addressed.
Guardrails
- Do not performatively agree before checking.
- Do not implement unclear feedback.
- Do not silently broaden scope.
- Preserve unrelated changes.
