Code Reviewing Skill — Quick Reference

This skill provides operational checklists and prompts for structured code review across languages and stacks. Use it when the primary task is reviewing existing code rather than designing new systems.

Quick Reference

Review Type	Focus Areas	Key Checklist	When to Use
Security Review	Auth, input validation, secrets, OWASP Top 10	software-security-appsec	Security-critical code, API endpoints
Performance Review	N+1 queries, algorithms, caching, hot paths	DB queries, loops, memory allocation	High-traffic features, bottlenecks
Correctness Review	Logic, edge cases, error handling, tests	Boundary conditions, null checks, retries	Business logic, data transformations
Maintainability Review	Naming, complexity, duplication, readability	Function length, naming clarity, DRY	Complex modules, shared code
Test Review	Coverage, edge cases, flakiness, assertions	Test quality, missing scenarios	New features, refactors
Frontend Review	Accessibility, responsive design, performance	frontend-review.md	UI/UX changes
Backend Review	API design, error handling, database patterns	api-review.md	API endpoints, services
Blockchain Review	Reentrancy, access control, gas optimization	crypto-review.md	Smart contracts, DeFi protocols

.NET/EF Core Crypto Integration

For C#/.NET crypto/fintech services using Entity Framework Core, see:

resources/dotnet-efcore-crypto-rules.md — Complete review rules (correctness, security, async, EF Core, tests, MRs)

Key rules summary:

Review only new/modified code in the MR
Use decimal for financial values, UTC for dates
No secrets in code, no sensitive data in logs
Async for I/O, pass CancellationToken, no .Result/.Wait()
EF Core: AsNoTracking for reads, avoid N+1, no dynamic SQL
Result<T> pattern for explicit success/fail

When to Use This Skill

Invoke this skill when the user asks to:

Review a pull request or diff for issues
Audit code for security vulnerabilities or injection risks
Improve readability, structure, and maintainability
Suggest targeted refactors without changing behavior
Validate tests and edge-case coverage

Decision Tree: Selecting Review Mode

Code review task: [What to Focus On?]
    ├─ Security-critical changes?
    │   ├─ Auth/access control → Security Review (OWASP, auth patterns)
    │   ├─ User input handling → Input validation, XSS, SQL injection
    │   └─ Smart contracts → Blockchain Review (reentrancy, access control)
    │
    ├─ Performance concerns?
    │   ├─ Database queries → Check for N+1, missing indexes
    │   ├─ Loops/algorithms → Complexity analysis, caching
    │   └─ API response times → Profiling, lazy loading
    │
    ├─ Correctness issues?
    │   ├─ Business logic → Edge cases, error handling, tests
    │   ├─ Data transformations → Boundary conditions, null checks
    │   └─ Integration points → Retry logic, timeouts, fallbacks
    │
    ├─ Maintainability problems?
    │   ├─ Complex code → Naming, function length, duplication
    │   ├─ Hard to understand → Comments, abstractions, clarity
    │   └─ Technical debt → Refactoring suggestions
    │
    ├─ Test coverage gaps?
    │   ├─ New features → Happy path + error cases
    │   ├─ Refactors → Regression tests
    │   └─ Bug fixes → Reproduction tests
    │
    └─ Stack-specific review?
        ├─ Frontend → [frontend-review.md](templates/web-frontend/frontend-review.md)
        ├─ Backend → [api-review.md](templates/backend-api/api-review.md)
        ├─ Mobile → [mobile-review.md](templates/mobile/mobile-review.md)
        ├─ Infrastructure → [infrastructure-review.md](templates/infrastructure/infrastructure-review.md)
        └─ Blockchain → [crypto-review.md](templates/blockchain/crypto-review.md)

Multi-Mode Reviews:

For complex PRs, apply multiple review modes sequentially:

Security first (P0/P1 issues)
Correctness (logic, edge cases)
Performance (if applicable)
Maintainability (P2/P3 suggestions)

Simplicity and Complexity Control

Prefer existing, battle-tested libraries over bespoke implementations when behavior is identical.
Flag avoidable complexity early: remove dead/commented-out code, collapse duplication, and extract single-responsibility helpers.
Call out premature optimization; favor clarity and measured, evidence-based tuning.
Encourage incremental refactors alongside reviews to keep modules small, predictable, and aligned to standards.
