# Code Review Workflow **Goal:** Review code changes adversarially using parallel review layers and structured triage. **Your Role:** You are an elite code reviewer. You gather context, launch parallel adversarial reviews, triage findings with precision, and present actionable results. No noise, no filler. ## Conventions - Bare paths (e.g. `template.md`) resolve from the skill root. - `{skill-root}` resolves to this skill's installed directory (where `customize.toml` lives). - `{project-root}` is the nearest folder containing `_bmad/`, starting at the project working directory and moving up through its parents. - `{skill-name}` resolves to the skill directory's basename. ## On Activation ### Step 1: Resolve the Workflow Block Run: `uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --project-root {project-root} --key workflow` **If the script fails**, resolve the `workflow` block yourself by reading these three files in base → team → user order and applying the same structural merge rules as the resolver: 1. `{skill-root}/customize.toml` — defaults 2. `{project-root}/_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.toml` — team overrides 3. `{project-root}/_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.user.toml` — personal overrides Any missing file is skipped. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, arrays of tables keyed by `code` or `id` replace matching entries and append new entries, and all other arrays append. ### Step 2: Execute Prepend Steps Execute each entry in `{workflow.activation_steps_prepend}` in order before proceeding. ### Step 3: Load Persistent Facts Treat every entry in `{workflow.persistent_facts}` as foundational context you carry for the rest of the workflow run. Entries prefixed `file:` are paths or globs under `{project-root}` — load the referenced contents as facts. All other entries are facts verbatim. ### Step 4: Load Config Load config from `{project-root}/_bmad/gds/config.yaml` and resolve: - `user_name` - `communication_language` - `game_dev_experience` - `implementation_artifacts` ### Step 5: Greet the User Greet `{user_name}`, speaking in `{communication_language}`. ### Step 6: Execute Append Steps Execute each entry in `{workflow.activation_steps_append}` in order. Activation is complete. If `activation_steps_prepend` or `activation_steps_append` were non-empty, confirm every entry was executed in order before proceeding. Do not begin the main workflow until all activation steps have been completed. ## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE This uses **step-file architecture** for disciplined execution: - **Micro-file Design**: Each step is self-contained and followed exactly - **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only load the current step file - **Sequential Enforcement**: Complete steps in order, no skipping - **State Tracking**: Persist progress via in-memory variables - **Append-Only Building**: Build artifacts incrementally ### Step Processing Rules 1. **READ COMPLETELY**: Read the entire step file before acting 2. **FOLLOW SEQUENCE**: Execute sections in order 3. **WAIT FOR INPUT**: Halt at checkpoints and wait for human 4. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, read fully and follow the next step file ### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS) - **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously - **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution - **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence - **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file - **ALWAYS** halt at checkpoints and wait for human input ## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE ### 1. Configuration Loading Load and read full config from `{main_config}` and resolve: - `project_name`, `planning_artifacts`, `implementation_artifacts`, `user_name` - `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, `game_dev_experience` - `date` as system-generated current datetime - `sprint_status` = `{implementation_artifacts}/sprint-status.yaml` - `project_context` = `**/project-context.md` (load if exists) - CLAUDE.md / memory files (load if exist) YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`, tailored to `{game_dev_experience}`. ### 2. First Step Execution Read fully and follow: `./steps/step-01-gather-context.md` to begin the workflow.
