Code Reviewer

Overview

Comprehensive code review: General intelligence + MERN specialization.

Philosophy: Check project health FIRST, then dive into code. A 6,000-line file is a problem regardless of what's in it.

Review Workflow

Phase 0: Project Health (Do This First)

Before reading any code, assess project health:

1. Build status: Run tsc --noEmit or check for compilation errors
2. Project docs: Read README, any STATUS/BUGS/TODO files - look for deployment blockers
3. Test health: Do tests exist? Check package.json scripts, look for test directories
4. File sizes: find src -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.tsx" | xargs wc -l | sort -n | tail -20
5. Dependencies: Check for npm audit issues, unusual deps (Angular in React?)
