Production Review

A senior-engineer-level code review focused exclusively on production readiness. This skill systematically evaluates code against a battle-tested checklist covering security, error handling, logging, configuration, performance, and operational concerns. It produces a severity-classified report with actionable fixes.

This is not a style review. It does not care about naming conventions or line length. It cares about the things that page you at 3 AM.

Review Workflow

Follow these steps in order. Do not skip steps.

Step 1: Identify the Stack

Before reviewing, determine:

• Language and version (Python 3.11, Node 20, Go 1.22, Java 21)
• Framework (FastAPI, Django, Flask, Express, Fastify, Gin, Spring Boot)
• Database (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis)
• Infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes, serverless, bare VM)
• Dependencies — scan requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, package.json, go.mod, or pom.xml
