11
-
12
- ---
13
-
14
- ## Review Mindset
15
-
16
- Reviews are collaborative. The goal is better code — not proof that the reviewer is smarter.
17
-
18
- **Before commenting:**
19
- - Understand what the code is trying to do before judging how it does it
20
- - Distinguish between personal preference and objective problems
21
- - Label your findings so the author understands the expected action
22
-
23
- **Comment label convention:**
24
- - `BLOCKER:` must be fixed before merge (bug, security issue, broken behavior)
25
- - `CONCERN:` likely problem that needs discussion before proceeding
26
- - `SUGGESTION:` — would improve the code but is not required
27
- - `NOTE:` — observation or question, no action needed
28
-
29
- ---
30
-
31
- ## What to Check
32
-
33
- ### Correctness
34
- - Does the code do what it claims to do?
35
- - Are edge cases handled? (empty input, null, max value, concurrent execution)
36
- - Does error handling cover realistic failure modes?
37
- - Are there off-by-one errors? Integer overflow risks?
38
-
39
- ### Security
40
- - Is user input validated before it's used?
41
- - Are SQL queries parameterized never string-concatenated?
42
- - Are secrets in environment variables not in code?
43
- - Are auth checks happening before business logic executes?
44
- - Is the OWASP API Top 10 considered for any API routes?
45
-
46
- ### Readability
47
- - Can you understand the intent in under 30 seconds per function?
48
- - Are names self-documenting at the right level of abstraction?
49
- - Are complex sections commented with *why*, not *what*?
50
- - Is nesting kept to a manageable depth (≤3 levels)?
51
-
52
- ### Design
53
- - Is this code easy to change? Or would changing one thing break five others?
54
- - Are there clear boundaries between concerns?
55
- - Is logic duplicated anywhere that should be shared?
56
- - Is the new code consistent with how the rest of the codebase does similar things?
57
-
58
- ### Tests
59
- - Are tests testing behavior or implementation details?
60
- - Do tests cover the happy path, edge cases, and known failure modes?
61
- - Do test names describe the expected behavior in plain language?
62
- - Would these tests catch a regression if someone broke this code?
63
-
64
- ### Performance
65
- - Are there database queries inside loops?
66
- - Are large datasets loaded into memory when they could be streamed?
67
- - Are expensive operations (network, file I/O) done unnecessarily?
68
-

70
-
71
- ## Review Process
72
-
73
- 1. **Read the PR description first** — understand intent before reading code
74
- 2. **Read tests first** — they tell you what the code is supposed to do
75
- 3. **Read the implementation** — verify it matches what the tests describe
76
- 4. **Run it locally for significant changes** — static reading misses runtime behavior
77
-

80
- ## Giving Feedback
81
-
82
- **Effective feedback is:**
83
- - Specific — references the exact line and the exact concern
84
- - Actionable — tells the author what to change, not just that something is wrong
85
- - Explanatorygives the reasoning, not just the verdict
86
-
87
- ```
88
- # ❌ Unhelpful
89
- This function is too long.
90
-
91
- # Helpful
92
- SUGGESTION: This function handles both data fetching and data transformation.
93
- Splitting into `fetchUserData()` and `transformUserData()` would make each
94
- half easier to test independently and reuse elsewhere.
95
- ```
96
-

98
-
99
- ## Receiving Feedback
100
-
101
- - "We disagree" is not the same as "they're wrong"
102
- - If a comment is unclear, ask for clarification before defending
103
- - BLOCKER and CONCERN comments need resolution, not just a response
104
- - SUGGESTION and NOTE are optional you can explain why you're not acting on them
105
-
106

107
-
108
- ## 🛑 Context Window Discipline
109
-
110
- When an AI acts as a reviewer, context bloat ruins reasoning:
111
-
112
- 1. **Never quote massive blocks of code back to the user.** Use line numbers or tiny 1-3 line snippets.
113
- 2. **Never attach the entire project context to a single file review.**
114
- 3. **Keep reviews scoped.** Do not suggest a full architecture rewrite if the PR is fixing a typo in a CSS class.
115
-
116
- ---
117
-
118
- ## 🤖 LLM-Specific Review Traps
119
-
120
- AI reviewers frequently fail by focusing on the wrong things. Avoid these strict anti-patterns:
121
-
122
- 1. **Syntax Nitpicking:** Commenting on formatting, semicolons, or line length. Let `eslint` or Prettier handle this. Only comment if logic is affected.
123
- 2. **"Clean Code" Hallucinations:** Telling the author to extract a perfectly readable 10-line function into 3 separate abstract classes.
124
- 3. **Invented Methods:** Suggesting the author use `.toSortedMap()` when that method literally does not exist in the language or framework used.

- 4. **False Bottlenecks:** Claiming an `O(n^2)` loop is a performance critical error when `n` is a configuration array guaranteed to be < 10 items.
126
- 5. **The Compliment Sandwich:** You do not need to soften every critique with "Great job on the rest of the code!" Be direct, professional, and concise.

- AI coding assistants often fall into specific bad habits when dealing with this domain. These are strictly forbidden:
152
-
153
- 1. **Over-engineering:** Proposing complex abstractions or distributed systems when a simpler approach suffices.
154
- 2. **Hallucinated Libraries/Methods:** Using non-existent methods or packages. Always `// VERIFY` or check `package.json` / `requirements.txt`.
155
- 3. **Skipping Edge Cases:** Writing the "happy path" and ignoring error handling, timeouts, or data validation.
156
- 4. **Context Amnesia:** Forgetting the user's constraints and offering generic advice instead of tailored solutions.
157
- 5. **Silent Degradation:** Catching and suppressing errors without logging or re-raising.

16
+
17
+ ## Review Mindset
18
+
19
+ Reviews are collaborative. The goal is better code not proof that the reviewer is smarter.
20
+
21
+ **Before commenting:**
22
+
23
+ - Understand what the code is trying to do before judging how it does it
24
+ - Distinguish between personal preference and objective problems
25
+ - Label your findings so the author understands the expected action
26
+
27
+ **Comment label convention:**
28
+
29
+ - `BLOCKER:` — must be fixed before merge (bug, security issue, broken behavior)
30
+ - `CONCERN:` — likely problem that needs discussion before proceeding
31
+ - `SUGGESTION:` would improve the code but is not required
32
+ - `NOTE:` — observation or question, no action needed
33
+
34
+ ---
35
+
36
+ ## What to Check
37
+
38
+ ### Correctness
39
+
40
+ - Does the code do what it claims to do?
41
+ - Are edge cases handled? (empty input, null, max value, concurrent execution)
42
+ - Does error handling cover realistic failure modes?
43
+ - Are there off-by-one errors? Integer overflow risks?
44
+
45
+ ### Security
46
+
47
+ - Is user input validated before it's used?
48
+ - Are SQL queries parameterized never string-concatenated?
49
+ - Are secrets in environment variables not in code?
50
+ - Are auth checks happening before business logic executes?
51
+ - Is the OWASP API Top 10 considered for any API routes?
52
+
53
+ ### Readability
54
+
55
+ - Can you understand the intent in under 30 seconds per function?
56
+ - Are names self-documenting at the right level of abstraction?
57
+ - Are complex sections commented with _why_, not _what_?
58
+ - Is nesting kept to a manageable depth (≤3 levels)?
59
+
60
+ ### Design
61
+
62
+ - Is this code easy to change? Or would changing one thing break five others?
63
+ - Are there clear boundaries between concerns?
64
+ - Is logic duplicated anywhere that should be shared?
65
+ - Is the new code consistent with how the rest of the codebase does similar things?
66
+
67
+ ### Tests
68
+
69
+ - Are tests testing behavior or implementation details?
70
+ - Do tests cover the happy path, edge cases, and known failure modes?
71
+ - Do test names describe the expected behavior in plain language?
72
+ - Would these tests catch a regression if someone broke this code?
73
+
74
+ ### Performance
75
+
76
+ - Are there database queries inside loops?
77
+ - Are large datasets loaded into memory when they could be streamed?
78
+ - Are expensive operations (network, file I/O) done unnecessarily?
79
+
80
+ ---
81
+
82
+ ## Review Process
83
+
84
+ 1. **Read the PR description first** understand intent before reading code
85
+ 2. **Read tests first** they tell you what the code is supposed to do
86
+ 3. **Read the implementation** — verify it matches what the tests describe
87
+ 4. **Run it locally for significant changes** — static reading misses runtime behavior
88
+
89
+ ---
90
+
91
+ ## Giving Feedback
92
+
93
+ **Effective feedback is:**
94
+
95
+ - Specific — references the exact line and the exact concern
96
+ - Actionable — tells the author what to change, not just that something is wrong
97
+ - Explanatory — gives the reasoning, not just the verdict
98
+
99
+ ```

+ # ❌ Unhelpful
101
+ This function is too long.
102
+
103
+ # Helpful
104
+ SUGGESTION: This function handles both data fetching and data transformation.
105
+ Splitting into `fetchUserData()` and `transformUserData()` would make each
106
+ half easier to test independently and reuse elsewhere.
107
+ ```
108
+
109
+ ---
110
+
111
+ ## Receiving Feedback
112
+
113
+ - "We disagree" is not the same as "they're wrong"
114
+ - If a comment is unclear, ask for clarification before defending
115
+ - BLOCKER and CONCERN comments need resolution, not just a response
116
+ - SUGGESTION and NOTE are optional — you can explain why you're not acting on them
117
+

119
+
120
+ ## 🛑 Context Window Discipline
121
+
122
+ When an AI acts as a reviewer, context bloat ruins reasoning:
123
+
124
+ 1. **Never quote massive blocks of code back to the user.** Use line numbers or tiny 1-3 line snippets.
125
+ 2. **Never attach the entire project context to a single file review.**
126
+ 3. **Keep reviews scoped.** Do not suggest a full architecture rewrite if the PR is fixing a typo in a CSS class.
127
+
128
+ ---
129
+
130
+ ## 🤖 LLM-Specific Review Traps
131
+
132
+ AI reviewers frequently fail by focusing on the wrong things. Avoid these strict anti-patterns:
195
133
 
134
+ 1. **Syntax Nitpicking:** Commenting on formatting, semicolons, or line length. Let `eslint` or Prettier handle this. Only comment if logic is affected.
135
+ 2. **"Clean Code" Hallucinations:** Telling the author to extract a perfectly readable 10-line function into 3 separate abstract classes.
136
+ 3. **Invented Methods:** Suggesting the author use `.toSortedMap()` when that method literally does not exist in the language or framework used.
137
+ 4. **False Bottlenecks:** Claiming an `O(n^2)` loop is a performance critical error when `n` is a configuration array guaranteed to be < 10 items.
138
+ 5. **The Compliment Sandwich:** You do not need to soften every critique with "Great job on the rest of the code!" Be direct, professional, and concise.
