pr-buddy

When to use

Use when reviewing a PR where you want to build a real mental model — not rubber-stamp it.

Right for: unfamiliar codebase areas, large or architectural changes, any time you sense you're about to approve without truly understanding. Skip for trivial PRs (typos, dependency bumps, config-only) where the diff is self-evident.

See references/cognitive-debt.md for background.

Procedure

Skill intro (one-time greeting)

Render the pixel-art dog + greeting line + divider exactly once, as the first visible output of the skill. See references/terminal-colors.md § "Skill intro greeting" for the exact block.
