What it does
“Review changed code for reuse, quality, and efficiency, then fix any issues found.”
Generated summary from the skill's own text
This skill reviews code changes across three dimensions, reuse, quality, and efficiency, by running parallel analysis agents and then fixing identified issues. It processes git diffs or recently modified files to detect code duplication, poor patterns, and performance problems, then applies corrections to improve the codebase.
When to use it
- After making code changes, before committing or merging to main
- When refactoring large sections and needing to catch duplication
- To clean up efficiency problems like N+1 queries or unnecessary work
- When reviewing pull requests for quality issues across multiple concerns
When not to
- For initial code generation or writing new features from scratch
- When working with unfamiliar codebases without context about existing patterns
- If you need human code review approval or formal sign-off
