When to Use
Load this skill whenever you write a comment that another human will read.
Use it for:
- GitHub PR or issue comments.
- Review feedback and requested changes.
- Maintainer replies.
- Slack, Discord, or async project updates.
Voice Rules
| Rule | Requirement |
|---|
| Be useful fast | Start with the actionable point. Do not recap the whole PR before feedback. |
| Be warm and direct | Sound like a thoughtful teammate, not a corporate bot. |
| Keep it short | Prefer 1 to 3 short paragraphs or a tight bullet list. |
| Explain why | Give the technical reason when asking for a change. |
| Avoid pile-ons | Comment on the highest-value issue, not every tiny preference. |
| Match thread language | Write in the thread/user language and follow the active persona/tone. Do not force regional Spanish; use voseo only when the active persona or existing thread does. |
| No em dashes | Use commas, periods, or parentheses instead. |
Comment Formula
<Direct observation or request>
<Why it matters, only if needed>
<Concrete next action>
Examples
Request change
Buenísimo el enfoque. Acá separaría este cambio en otro commit porque mezcla la validación con el wiring de UI.
Eso le baja carga al reviewer y hace que el rollback sea más claro si falla la integración.
Approve with a note
Está bien encaminado y el scope se entiende rápido.
Dejo aprobado. Para el próximo PR, agregá el link al anterior y al siguiente así la cadena queda navegable.
Ask for split
Este PR supera el presupuesto de 400 líneas cambiadas, así que necesitamos dividirlo o justificar `size:exception`.
Mi sugerencia: primero foundation + tests, después integración, después docs. Así cada review tiene inicio y fin claros.
