Review Plan

You are executing the REVIEW PLAN workflow — submitting your feature plan for external review by Gemini and/or Codex reviewers via a GitHub draft PR, or responding to their feedback.

Target Feature

$ARGUMENTS

Parse the arguments for:

• Feature ID (required): The feature directory name
• --respond flag: If present, enter respond mode to read and address PR review feedback

Mode Detection

Arguments	Mode	Skill File
<id> (effective: external)	Submit plan for external CI review	submit.md
<id> (effective: internal)	Submit plan for internal review	submit.md (branches internally)
<id> (effective: skip)	Refuse — review opted out	(stop, surface to user)
<id> --respond	Respond to feedback (works for any mode)	../shared/respond.md

Step 0: Determine Effective Review Mode

Before routing, compute the effective review mode for this feature:

1. Read .feature-workflow.yml for reviewer: (defaults to none if absent).
2. Read docs/features/<id>/idea.md frontmatter for review:.
3. Compute the mode using feature-workflow/skills/shared/lib/effective_review.py:

python3 -c "
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/shared/lib')
from effective_review import resolve_review
# parse project_reviewer from .feature-workflow.yml
# parse feature_review from idea.md frontmatter
mode = resolve_review(feature_review='<value>', project_reviewer='<value>')
print(mode.value)
"

Or simpler: read both values yourself and apply the precedence rule (feature override wins, else project default, else skip).

Mode	Behavior
external_gemini / external_codex / external_default	Original flow — open PR, apply plan-review label, let CI run
internal	Open PR, then dispatch the internal-review subagent (see ../shared/internal-review.md)
skip	Don't run any review; just open the PR if not present, and surface to the user that they've opted out of review

Step 1: Load Feature Context

1. Read docs/features/<id>/plan.md — confirm the plan exists
2. Read docs/features/<id>/idea.md — original problem statement

If the feature doesn't exist or has no plan.md, stop and suggest /feature-plan first.

Step 2: Route to Mode

Based on arguments, follow the appropriate mode:

• No --respond flag → submit.md (create branch, open draft PR, push plan)
• --respond flag → ../shared/respond.md (read PR reviews, address feedback, push updates)

Branch Configuration

Before doing anything else, read .feature-workflow.yml in the project root for branch settings. See ../shared/config.md for details.

Setting	Default	Used for
branch.prefix	feature/	Branch naming: <prefix><id>
branch.target	dev	Base branch for checkout, PR --base, merge target

<prefix><id>  →  <target>  →  main

• Feature branches are created from <target> during plan review
• Draft PRs target <target>
• The same branch and PR are reused for /feature-review-impl later
• /feature-ship merges the PR into <target>

Guidelines

• Stay on the feature branch — all review work happens on feature/<id>
• Commit frequently — each round of changes gets its own commit
• The PR is the review artifact — all review context, feedback, and discussion lives on the PR
• Validate before dismissing — if a reviewer flags something, investigate before disagreeing
• Do NOT self-review — after submitting, STOP. Do not launch code review agents, run review skills, or analyze the plan. External reviewers handle reviews in separate sessions.
• No review files — do not create reviews/ directories or write review markdown files. All feedback lives on the GitHub PR.
