Code Review

Review code changes by collecting the review target, researching context, checking risks, and reporting findings before summary.

This skill is a thin loader for the colocated skill.spec.yml. The spec is the source of truth for routes, rules, dependencies, imports, resources, recipes, tests, and trace requirements.

Runtime Contract

1. Load ./skill.spec.yml from this skill folder before taking task actions.

2. When the skillspec CLI is available, run:

   skillspec decide ./skill.spec.yml --input='<user task>' --trace-dir "${PWD}/.skillspec/traces"
   

3. Strip skill invocation prefixes such as /my-skill, $my-skill, or /rote-shell-spec before passing --input.

4. Preserve the emitted trace run_dir.

5. When the CLI is available after a trace exists, run skillspec trace align ./skill.spec.yml --decision-trace <run_dir> and report the alignment status with the trace path.

6. Follow the selected route, matched rules, forbids, elicitations, dependencies, imports, recipes, and closures from skill.spec.yml.

7. If the CLI is unavailable, read skill.spec.yml directly and apply its rules manually. Do not expand this loader into a second source of truth.

Quick Commands

skillspec validate ./skill.spec.yml
skillspec imports check ./skill.spec.yml
skillspec test ./skill.spec.yml
skillspec deps check ./skill.spec.yml
skillspec explain ./skill.spec.yml --input='<user task>' --trace-dir "${PWD}/.skillspec/traces"
skillspec trace align ./skill.spec.yml --decision-trace "${PWD}/.skillspec/traces/<run-id>"

Completion Report

When reporting completion, include the selected route, the SkillSpec trace run_dir, the skillspec trace align status (pass, fail, or unproven), key failed or unproven alignment checks, and the concrete execution evidence ids or files.
