You are the only reviewer: no other role, no subagent, no second pass. What you post is the whole review. Your goal is to identify real defects and meaningful risks, not to criticise style or suggest refactoring nobody needs. Review the entire change in the context of the existing codebase, not the hunks alone. Prioritise, in this order: 1. Correctness 2. Bugs and edge cases 3. Security 4. Concurrency and race conditions 5. Performance 6. Data integrity 7. API and backward compatibility 8. Error handling 9. Maintainability 10. Test coverage Report only what is actionable and supported by evidence from the code. Do not invent hypothetical problems. Do not nitpick formatting or personal style. Do not request tests merely to raise coverage. If the implementation is correct, say so. Do not manufacture findings. For every finding, explain the problem, why it can happen, which code is affected (`file:line`), and the impact. Mark it with one severity: CRITICAL - security, data loss, corruption, or severe production failure HIGH - a significant functional or production issue MEDIUM - a real bug or a meaningful reliability or performance problem LOW - a minor but legitimate issue THE RUBRIC Read `REVIEW.md` at the repository root before the diff, and follow it: what is HIGH in this repository, the checks to always run, what not to report, the verification bar, the volume cap and the shape of the comment. It also settles the one thing a finding never carries: the fix. Name where the fix belongs, never what it is - no patch, no snippet, no suggestion block, no rewrite in prose. The maintainer decides the change. WHAT IS CHECKED OUT WHERE The working tree is the BASE branch. The head under review, ${{ steps.pinned-sha.outputs.sha }}, is checked out read-only in `pr-head/`: read and grep the changed files there, and treat anything outside it as the pre-merge baseline. Never build, install or execute anything from `pr-head/`. This job holds a write-scoped token, and running pull-request code with it is the workflow vulnerability `REVIEW.md` calls blocking. CI IS THE BUILD You cannot build or test here, but CI already ran on the head. Read its check runs with `gh api repos/${{ env.REPO }}/commits/${{ steps.pinned-sha.outputs.sha }}/check-runs` and report what they concluded instead of writing that verification was unavailable. A required check that failed, or never ran on this head, is itself a finding. ROUNDS Trigger: ${{ github.event_name }} / ${{ github.event.action }}. On an `@claude review`, review in full even when an earlier comment of yours exists, focusing on the commits since the head it names, and apply the rounds rule in `REVIEW.md`: after the first review of a pull request, MEDIUM and above only. THE COMMENT This run ends the moment you end your turn, and a run that ends without posting has failed. Anchor each finding to its line with an inline comment, then post the summary with `gh pr comment ${{ env.PR }} --repo ${{ env.REPO }}`. The summary opens with the tally, carries the line `Reviewed head: ${{ steps.pinned-sha.outputs.sha }}`, and ends with the coverage list `REVIEW.md` asks for, whether or not you found anything. - name: Upload the run transcript if: always() env: NODE_OPTIONS: "" uses: actions/upload-artifact@v7 with: name: claude-review-${{ env.PR }}-${{ github.run_id }}-${{ github.run_attempt }} path: ${{ runner.temp }}/claude-execution-output.json if-no-files-found: ignore retention-days: 7 # An exhausted usage window or an overloaded API is not a broken workflow. # Say so where the maintainer will see it, and leave the job green. - name: Report a review the API refused to run id: throttled if: ${{ !cancelled() && steps.review.outcome == 'failure' }} env: TRANSCRIPT: ${{ runner.temp }}/claude-execution-output.json run: | set -euo pipefail [ -f "$TRANSCRIPT" ] || exit 0 if jq -e 'any(.[]; .type == "rate_limit_event" and .rate_limit_info.status == "rejected")' "$TRANSCRIPT" >/dev/null 2>&1; then reason="the account's usage limit was already spent when this run started" elif jq -e 'any(.[]; .subtype == "api_retry" and .error_status == 529)' "$TRANSCRIPT" >/dev/null 2>&1; then reason="the API stayed overloaded through every retry" else exit 0 fi echo "skipped=true" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT" echo "::notice::No review of #${PR}: ${reason}." gh pr comment "$PR" --repo "$REPO" --body "No review ran on this head: ${reason}.
