# Code Review Checklist Skill Produces a tailored code review checklist for a specific pull request — scaled to the language, type of change, and risk level. Not a generic template. ## Required Inputs Ask the user for these if not provided: - **Language and framework** (e.g. TypeScript + React / Python + FastAPI / Go) - **Type of change** (feature / bug fix / refactor / dependency upgrade / security patch / performance) - **Risk level** (low / medium / high / critical) - **PR description** (paste the description or link to the PR) - **Code or diff** (optional — paste key changed files or a `git diff`; significantly improves checklist specificity) - **Author context** (new starter / experienced / external contributor) ## Output Format --- # Code Review: [PR Title or Reference] ### 1. PR Overview **Scope assessment:** [Small / Medium / Large / Too large — should be split] **Recommended review depth:** [Skim / Standard / Deep dive] **Estimated review time:** [e.g. 20–30 min — use 5 min per 50 lines of diff as a rough guide] ### 2. Correctness Checks Language-specific correctness checks — choose based on the language stated: **For TypeScript/JavaScript:** - Type definitions match actua

Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
