Code Review
Guide proper code review practices emphasizing technical rigor, evidence-based claims, and verification over performative responses.
Overview
Code review requires three distinct practices:
- Receiving feedback - Technical evaluation over performative agreement
- Requesting reviews - Systematic review via code-reviewer subagent
- Verification gates - Evidence before any completion claims
Each practice has specific triggers and protocols detailed in reference files.
Core Principle
Technical correctness over social comfort. Verify before implementing. Ask before assuming. Evidence before claims.
