# Requesting Code Review Dispatch superpowers:code-reviewer subagent to catch issues before they cascade. **Core principle:** Review early, review often. ## When to Request Review **Mandatory:** - After each task in subagent-driven development - After completing major feature - Before merge to main **Optional but valuable:** - When stuck (fresh perspective) - Before refactoring (baseline check) - After fixing complex bug ## How to Request **1. Get git SHAs:** ```bash BASE_SHA=$(git rev-parse HEAD~1) # or origin/main HEAD_SHA=$(git rev-parse HEAD) ``` **2. Dispatch code-reviewer subagent:** Use Task tool with superpowers:code-reviewer type, fill template at `code-reviewer.md` **Placeholders:** - `{WHAT_WAS_IMPLEMENTED}` - What you just built - `{PLAN_OR_REQUIREMENTS}` - What it should do - `{BASE_SHA}` - Starting commit - `{HEAD_SHA}` - Ending commit - `{DESCRIPTION}` - Brief summary **3. Act on feedback:** - Fix Critical issues immediately - Fix Important issues before proceeding - Note Minor issues for later - Push back if reviewer is wrong (with reasoning) ## Example ``` [Just completed Task 2: Add verification function] You: Let me request code review before proceeding.

About this skill
What does the requesting-code-review skill do?

Use when completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to verify work meets requirements

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill requesting-code-review --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 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.
