Automated summary
Performs a comprehensive code review by analyzing Git changes to assess quality, security, and maintainability.
Strengths
- Structured analysis with categories (blockers, suggestions, etc.)
- Security checks (injection, secrets)
- Covers testing and architecture
Limitations
- Relies on Git configuration for diffs
- Not a substitute for in-depth human review
- May miss business logic issues
Use this skill to review code changes before merging into a main branch.
Do not use this for non-versioned code or when you need a global architectural review without change context.
Security analysis
SafeThe skill only uses read-only git commands and provides a review framework; no destructive, exfiltration, or obfuscated actions.
No concerns found
How this analysis is madeExamples
Review the code changes in the last commit. Check for quality, security, and maintainability issues.Perform a code review on the differences between the current branch and main. Focus on security and testing.Review the recent code changes and look for any hardcoded secrets, SQL injection points, or code duplication.name: code-review description: Perform comprehensive code review for quality, security, and maintainability. Use when reviewing code changes, PRs, or when asked to check code quality.

Example
## Code Review: Add user authentication
### Summary
Good implementation overall. One security issue needs addressing before merge.
### Findings
#### 🔴 Blockers
1. `src/auth/login.ts:45` - Password logged in plaintext
- Security risk: passwords visible in logs
- Fix: Remove console.log or mask password
#### 🟡 Suggestions
1. `src/auth/login.ts:23` - Consider adding rate limiting
- Prevents brute force attacks
- Use existing rateLimiter middleware
#### 🟢 Nitpicks
1. `src/auth/types.ts:12` - Could use more descriptive type name
- `LoginData` → `LoginCredentials`
### Positive Notes
- Good use of custom error types
- Comprehensive input validation
- Well-structured service layer
From the file to a first result
The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.
View the source and supporting filesThis download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.
1. Download the file
Download SKILL.mdFrom the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/code-review-mm8o52c4/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.
Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.
mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/code-review-mm8o52c4' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/code-review-mm8o52c4/download' --output '.skill-downloads/code-review-mm8o52c4/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/code-review-mm8o52c4/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/code-review-mm8o52c4/SKILL.md'2. Check prerequisites
Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.
No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.
The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.
3. Load the skill
After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.
Official OpenSkills installationopenskills install './.skill-downloads/code-review-mm8o52c4'openskills read 'code-review-mm8o52c4'Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.
For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.
openskills syncManual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.
4. Try a first task
Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:
Read .skill-downloads/code-review-mm8o52c4/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
React Hook Form Best Practices
Development
Master React Hook Form: avoid anti-patterns, manage subscriptions, and handle reset, dirty state, and controlled inputs correctly.
Emotion to Mantine Migration
Development
Migrate Emotion styled-components to Mantine components with style props and CSS modules. Use when converting .styled.tsx files or removing @emotion imports.
Scope Creep Detector
Development
Analyzes git diffs against a stated intent to detect scope creep, unrelated files, broad PRs, and oversized changes, then suggests keep, split, or justify actions.
