Review PR
Overview
Perform a thorough review-only PR assessment and return a structured recommendation.
Inputs

- •If ambiguous, ask for clarification.
Safety
- •Never push to
mainororigin/main. - •Do not run
git pushat all during review. Review is read-only. - •Do not modify code.
Workflow
1. Identify PR metadata
bash
gh pr view <number> --json title,body,author,baseRefName,headRefName,additions,deletions,files,reviews,state
2. Read the diff
bash
gh pr diff <number>
3. Check CI status
bash
gh pr checks <number>
4. Read changed files in context
For each changed file, read the full file to understand the surrounding code.
5. Produce structured review
Write the review with these sections:
A) TL;DR — One-line recommendation: APPROVE, REQUEST_CHANGES, or NEEDS_DISCUSSION
B) What changed — Concise summary of the changes
C) What is good — Positive aspects of the implementation
D) Security findings — Any security concerns (injection, secrets, auth issues)
E) Concerns — Categorized as:
- •
BLOCKER— Must fix before merge - •
IMPORTANT— Should fix, but not a dealbreaker - •
NIT— Style/preference, optional
F) Tests — Are changes tested? Are edge cases covered?
G) Docs — Are docs updated if needed?
H) Suggested PR comment — Ready-to-post review comment
