Evidence-based review for pull requests, whole projects, and technical artifacts.
Judge completion, readiness, architecture, requirements, implementation quality, risk, and documentation with one open skill.

Reviewis built for the moment when a normal code review is too narrow.
| Question | What Review gives back |
|---|---|
| Is this PR safe to merge? | severity-ordered findings, regression thinking, merge readiness |
| Is this project actually complete? | completion verdict, evidence gaps, next priorities |
| Is this release ready? | readiness gates, go/no-go summary, operational caveats |
| Is this design or plan solid enough? | ambiguity review, requirements gaps, tradeoff notes |
Review is read-only by default for review requests. It is designed to assess evidence, not just code style.
Download-ready overview assets:
| Scope | Best for | Typical result |
|---|---|---|
change |
PRs, commits, diffs, patch sets, uncommitted work | merge recommendation, impacted areas, regression risk |
project |
whole repositories, delivery-state audits, product reviews | completion verdict, readiness summary, remediation roadmap |
artifact |
specs, plans, reports, design documents, architecture notes | ambiguity list, requirements gaps, tradeoff notes |
| Pillar | What it changes |
|---|---|
| Scope-first routing | change review, project audit, and artifact review do not get flattened into one generic prompt |
| Evidence floors | findings need proof, not vibes or vague confidence |
| Readiness gates | ready is treated as a claim that must be earned |
| Severity and risk framing | blocker, high, medium, low plus security, privacy, compliance, performance, and reliability |
| Code review rigor | diff-first workflow, high-risk change heuristics, automated-finding verification, and language-specific review guides |
| Reusable deliverables | scorecards, risk registers, gap reports, and roadmaps instead of loose commentary |
| Mode | Best for |
|---|---|
project |
end-to-end repository or product review |
readiness |
submission, release, and delivery decisions |
architecture |
structure, boundaries, tradeoffs, and scalability |
code |
diff-first implementation review with regression, validation, high-risk change analysis, and stack-specific heuristics |
requirements |
coverage, ambiguity, acceptance criteria, and prioritization |
risk |
security, privacy, compliance, performance, and reliability |
documentation |
clarity, consistency, and handoff quality |
| Output | Why it is useful |
|---|---|
| severity-ordered findings | see blockers before polish comments |
| completion verdicts | understand whether work is actually done |
| readiness scorecards | make submit or release decisions with evidence |
| risk registers | capture threats, exposure, and mitigation priorities |
| requirements gap reports | surface missing or unclear scope |
| remediation roadmaps | turn review into next actions |
