code-review（代码审查）

Code Review

Orchestrates code review across GitHub PRs, GitLab MRs, and Gerrit changes. Auto-detects the platform from git remote configuration and provides focused review feedback on security, maintainability, and architectural fit.

This is a workflow skill -- it contains no scripts and instead guides the agent through a multi-step review process using the appropriate platform skill.

Authentication

This skill delegates authentication to the underlying platform skill:

• GitHub: Requires gh auth login (see the github skill)
• GitLab: Requires glab auth login (see the gitlab skill)
• Gerrit: Requires git-review configuration (see the gerrit skill)

Ensure the relevant platform skill is authenticated before using code-review.

Commands

review

Review a change by number or URL.

Usage:

Review PR #123
Review this MR: https://gitlab.com/org/repo/-/merge_requests/42
Review Gerrit change 456789

The agent follows the Workflow steps: detects the platform from git remotes or the provided URL, fetches the change metadata, CI status, and diff, then provides structured review feedback. Optionally posts review comments.

remember

Save additional context for the current repository's reviews. This persists information that should be considered in future reviews of the same repo.

Usage:

Remember that this repo follows the Google Python Style Guide
Remember: authentication changes must be reviewed by the security team
Remember https://internal-docs.example.com/api-conventions as a reference for API design
Remember that the data layer uses the Repository pattern, not Active Record

Keyword: The word remember at the start of a message triggers saving. The context is stored in ~/.config/agent-skills/code-review.yaml under the current repository's remote URL.

What to save: Coding standards, architectural decisions, external documentation links, team conventions, review policies, or any context that should inform future reviews.

forget

Remove previously saved context for the current repository.

Usage:

Forget the note about the Google Python Style Guide
Forget all saved context for this repo

show context

Display all saved context for the current repository.

Usage:

Show review context for this repo

check

Verify that the required platform skill is available and authenticated.

# For GitHub repos
skills/github/scripts/github.py check

# For GitLab repos
skills/gitlab/scripts/gitlab.py check

# For Gerrit repos
skills/gerrit/scripts/gerrit.py check

Repository Context

Per-repository context is persisted in ~/.config/agent-skills/code-review.yaml, keyed by the remote fetch URL from git remote get-url origin. This context is loaded at the start of every review (see Step 0 in Workflow).

# ~/.config/agent-skills/code-review.yaml
repositories:
  "git@github.com:myorg/myrepo.git":
    references:
      - "https://internal-docs.example.com/api-conventions"
      - "https://google.github.io/styleguide/pyguide.html"
    standards:
      - "All API endpoints must validate input with Pydantic models"
      - "Authentication changes require security team review"
    notes:
      - "Data layer uses Repository pattern, not Active Record"
      - "Legacy modules in src/compat/ are exempt from new style rules"
  "https://gitlab.com/myorg/other-repo.git":
    references:
      - "https://docs.example.com/other-repo/architecture"
    standards: []
    notes:
      - "Migrating from REST to GraphQL -- new endpoints should use GraphQL"

When the user provides out-of-repo context during a review, suggest using the remember command to persist it.

Workflow

Step 0: Load Repository Context

Before starting the review, check for saved context:

git remote get-url origin

Read ~/.config/agent-skills/code-review.yaml and look up the remote URL. If context exists, load it and keep it in mind throughout the review:

• references: Consult these when evaluating architectural decisions
• standards: Actively check compliance with each standard
• notes: Factor these into review feedback

If no context file exists or the repo has no entries, proceed without additional context.

Step 1: Detect Platform

Determine the code hosting platform from the repository context:

# Check git remotes
git remote -v

• If remote contains github.com -> use the github skill
• If remote contains gitlab -> use the gitlab skill
• If .gitreview file exists -> use the gerrit skill
• If a URL is provided, detect from the URL hostname

Step 2: Fetch Change Metadata and CI Status

GitHub:

skills/github/scripts/github.py prs view <number> --repo OWNER/REPO
skills/github/scripts/github.py prs checks <number> --repo OWNER/REPO

GitLab:

skills/gitlab/scripts/gitlab.py mrs view <number> --repo GROUP/REPO
skills/gitlab/scripts/gitlab.py pipelines list --repo GROUP/REPO

Gerrit:

skills/gerrit/scripts/gerrit.py changes view <change-number>

Step 3: Assess CI/Test Status

Before reviewing, check whether CI/tests have passed:

• If CI is passing: proceed with full review
• If CI is failing: note the failures, skip reviewing concerns that would be caught by tests, and focus on issues tests cannot catch (security, architecture, design)
• If CI is pending: note it and proceed with review

Step 4: Fetch the Diff

GitHub:

gh pr diff <number>

GitLab:

glab mr diff <number>

Gerrit:

git diff HEAD~1

Step 5: Review the Changes

Focus review feedback on these areas, in priority order. See references/review-checklist.md for the full checklist.

1. Security concerns: injection vulnerabilities, authentication/authorization gaps, data exposure, unsafe deserialization, hardcoded secrets
2. Maintainability: excessive complexity, poor naming, missing separation of concerns, code duplication that harms readability
3. Good coding practices: error handling gaps, resource leaks, race conditions, missing input validation at system boundaries
4. Architectural fit: consistency with existing codebase patterns, appropriate abstraction level, dependency direction

Do not flag:

• Style/formatting issues (leave to linters)
• Minor naming preferences without clear readability impact
• Test coverage gaps (leave to CI coverage tools)
• Issues already caught by failing CI

Step 6: Present Findings

Format findings as a structured review:

## Code Review: PR #<number> - <title>

### Summary
<1-2 sentence summary of the change and overall assessment>

### CI Status
<passing/failing/pending -- note any failures>

### Findings

#### Security
- [ ] <finding with file:line reference>

#### Maintainability
- [ ] <finding with file:line reference>

#### Coding Practices
- [ ] <finding with file:line reference>

#### Architecture
- [ ] <finding with file:line reference>

### Verdict
<APPROVE / REQUEST_CHANGES / COMMENT -- with brief rationale>

If the user requests it, post the review as comments on the PR/MR using the platform skill:

GitHub:

gh pr review <number> --comment --body "<review>"
# Or approve/request changes:
gh pr review <number> --approve --body "<review>"
gh pr review <number> --request-changes --body "<review>"

GitLab:

glab mr note <number> --message "<review>"
# Or approve:
glab mr approve <number>

Model Guidance

This skill coordinates multiple sub-skills and requires reasoning about multi-step workflows. A higher-capability model is recommended for best results.

Troubleshooting

Platform not detected

Ensure you are running from within a git repository with a remote configured:

git remote -v

Authentication errors

Verify the underlying platform skill is authenticated:

# GitHub
gh auth status

# GitLab
glab auth status

No diff available

Ensure the PR/MR number is correct and the change exists:

# GitHub
skills/github/scripts/github.py prs view <number>

# GitLab
skills/gitlab/scripts/gitlab.py mrs view <number>
