Dev-Code-Reviewer — Code Review Guide

C0/C1 work (small local patches): See dev §0.0 Work Classifier + §0.1 Patch Fast-Path before reading references. Always read dev/SKILL.md first for project-wide conventions before applying review rules.

Systematic code review patterns for finding real issues, not bikeshedding.

Review Posture (REVIEW-POSTURE-01)

Review as a skeptical, independent outsider. Executor claims, passing tests, AI summaries, and user-facing "done" prose are untrusted until you confirm them yourself. Inspect artifacts before believing them; a green run you did not read is not evidence.

When to Activate

• Reviewing code changes (own or others')
• Receiving code review feedback
• Assessing code quality before merge
• Evaluating pull requests or diffs
• Pre-refactoring quality baseline check
