qe-pr-review

Review pull requests with correct AQE scope boundaries, clear communication, and actionable feedback.

Arguments

• <pr-number> — GitHub PR number to review. If omitted, prompt the user.

Steps

1. Read the Full Diff

gh pr diff <pr-number>
gh pr view <pr-number>

Read the complete diff and PR description. Do not skim — read every changed file.

2. Scope Check

• Only analyze AQE/QE skills (NOT Claude Flow platform skills)
• Platform skills to EXCLUDE: v3-, flow-nexus-, agentdb-, reasoningbank-, swarm-, github-, hive-mind-advanced, hooks-automation, iterative-loop, stream-chain, skill-builder, sparc-methodology, pair-programming, release, debug-loop, aqe-v2-v3-migration
• If the PR touches skills, verify the count/scope matches expectations (~78 AQE skills)
• Flag any platform skill changes that may have leaked into an AQE-focused PR

3. Summarize Changes

Write a user-friendly summary of what changed and why:

• Focus on outcomes, not implementation details
• Avoid overly technical jargon
• Keep it to 3-5 bullet points

4. Trust Tier Validation

For any skill changes, validate trust_tier assignments:

• tier 3 = has eval infrastructure (evals/, schemas/, scripts/)
• tier 2 = tested but no eval framework
• tier 1 = untested
• Flag inconsistencies (e.g., a skill with evals at tier 2 should be tier 3)

5. Code Quality Review

Check for:

• Hardcoded version strings
• Production safety concerns (adapter changes, breaking changes)
• Missing test coverage for new code
• Security issues (exposed secrets, injection risks)

6. Post Review

gh pr review <pr-number> --body "review comments"

Communication Rules

• Keep tone constructive and actionable
• Be outcome-focused: what should the author do, not what's wrong
• Group related comments together instead of posting many small ones
• If approving with minor suggestions, use APPROVE with comments, not REQUEST_CHANGES
