Review Skill

Purpose

Automatically analyzes a codebase when Lisa is installed, creating a foundational memory of the project structure, technologies, and patterns. This review serves as context for all future Claude sessions.

Triggers

Use when the user says things like:

"run review"
"analyze this codebase"
"scan the project"
"what is this project about"
"refresh codebase summary"

How to use

Automatic (during npm install)

The review runs automatically when Lisa is installed via npm install @tonycasey/lisa. It:

Detects if the folder is a codebase
Runs static analysis (language, framework, structure)
Stores result as first memory
Queues background AI enrichment

Manual commands

# Run review (or re-run with --force)
lisa review run [--force]

# Show current review
lisa review show

# Check status (done, enriched, etc.)
lisa review status

Memory storage

Init reviews are stored with these tags:

type:init-review - Identifies as init review memory
scope:codebase - Full codebase analysis
ai:enriched - Present if AI enrichment completed

Marker file

Location: .lisa/.init-review-done

Prevents re-running on subsequent installs. Delete to force re-run, or use --force flag.

Cross-model checklist

Codex: Use explicit CLI commands; verify triggers match
Claude: Keep output concise; shown in session-start context
Gemini: Explicit commands; avoid model-specific tokens

Notes

Static analysis targets <2 seconds execution
AI enrichment runs in background (30-60 seconds)
Logs written to .lisa/.init-review.log
Never blocks npm install - errors are caught and logged
