Use when you want to understand what reviewers actually enforce on a repo, discover undocumented team standards, onboard to a new codebase's culture, create a coding conventions skill from real review patterns, audit a mined skill, or verify that conventions are accurate.

Convention Mining

Surface implicit coding conventions from merged PR review comments, then verify and harden the results. This skill covers two phases: mining conventions from review data, and auditing convention skills for accuracy.

Workflow

Phase	When to Use	Guide
Mining	Extracting conventions from PR review history for the first time	mining.md
Auditing	Verifying a mined skill is factually correct before merging, or hardening an existing conventions skill	auditing.md

Mining produces a conventions document or skill. Auditing verifies that the output is accurate — quotes are real, code examples match the actual codebase, and nothing contradicts existing docs. Run auditing after mining, or independently on any conventions skill that needs review.

Phase Routing

Route to mining.md when the user wants to:

Extract conventions from PR review history
Understand what reviewers enforce on a repo
Create a conventions guide, skill, or CLAUDE.md additions
Onboard to a new codebase's review culture

Route to auditing.md when the user wants to:

Audit or review a mined conventions skill
Verify that quoted review comments are real
Check code examples against the actual codebase
Find gaps, overlaps, or contradictions with existing docs
Harden a conventions skill before merging
