Matrix Code Review
Perform comprehensive, context-aware code review using 5-agent architecture with 95% false positive reduction.
Tip: This skill runs in a forked context for an unbiased perspective - similar to how a human reviewer would approach the code for the first time.
Architecture
code
ORCHESTRATOR (parses target, routes, aggregates)
│
├── DETECTION AGENT → security, runtime, breaking, logic flaws
├── IMPACT AGENT → blast radius, transitive graph, test coverage
├── TRIAGE AGENT → tier assignment, confidence calibration, noise filter
├── REMEDIATION AGENT → context-aware fixes, regression checks
└── VERIFICATION AGENT → build, test, lint validation
Usage
Parse user arguments from the skill invocation (text after the trigger phrase).
Expected format: <target> [mode]
- •target: File path, PR number, or "staged" for staged changes
- •mode (optional):
default|lazy(default: from config ordefault)
Modes
Default Mode (Comprehensive)
Full 5-agent review pipeline with maximum index utilization:
- •Detection: Security vulns, runtime issues, breaking changes
- •Impact: Transitive blast radius (2-3 levels), service boundaries, test coverage
- •Triage: Tier classification, >80% signal ratio target
- •Remediation: Context-aware fixes matching codebase patterns
- •Verification: Run build, test, lint commands automatically
Lazy Mode (Quick)
Detection agent only:
- •Direct code inspection
- •Critical issues only (Tier 1)
- •~2-3 comments, no blast radius
Review Pipeline
Follow the 5-agent orchestration detailed in references/review-phases.md:
- •Orchestrator - Parse target, dispatch agents, aggregate results
- •Detection Agent - Find security, runtime, breaking, logic issues
- •Impact Agent - Calculate transitive blast radius, test coverage
- •Triage Agent - Classify tiers, calibrate confidence, filter noise
- •Remediation Agent - Generate fixes, check regression risk
- •Verification Agent - Run build, test, lint; report results
Early exit: If Detection finds nothing critical, skip Impact/Triage depth.
