How we review

Minimal accessThe tool runs nothing and makes no network calls.

  • The skill is rules and references, reading code and giving feedback

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

The skill gives an agent a code review rulebook for two dozen languages and frameworks, including React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Rust, TypeScript, Java, PHP, Ruby, Python, Go and more. Rules are split by topic: architecture, performance, security audit, code quality and common bugs. Material loads progressively to save context: a compact SKILL.md on activation, with detailed stack sections opened on demand. The review tone is collaborative: questions over commands, suggestions over mandates.

Who it is for. For developers and reviewers who want a single review standard across stacks.

Good fit when

  • You need to review a pull request or code changes
  • You need a shared review checklist for a team
  • You need an architecture, performance or security review

Not a fit when

  • You need linters and tests run automatically rather than rule-based review
  • Your stack is outside the skill's coverage

Example request

Review this pull request and flag security and performance risks

Limitations

The skill gives rule-based guidance; it does not run builds or tests itself. Coverage depth varies by language, and references are in English.

How to disable. Remove the code-review-skill folder from your agent's skills directory, for example ~/.claude/skills/code-review-skill.

FAQ

Which agents are supported?

The skills CLI install works for Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and others.

Does it edit code itself?

The skill reviews changes and gives feedback. Edits are made by the agent on your call.

README in short

The README describes a code review skill for Claude Code and compatible agents with coverage of over twenty languages and frameworks and a large body of rules. Material loads progressively to avoid overfilling context. Install via npx skills add or by manually cloning into a skills directory, with an option to wire it into a plugin. The review tone is collaborative. MIT licensed.
