What it does
Performs AI-powered code review on Git changes using the `ocr` CLI from alibaba/open-code-review. Use when the user asks to review code, review a pull request, review staged/unstaged changes, review a commit, or compare branches for code quality issues. Produces line-level review comments and can automatically apply fixes when requested. With appropriate review rules, can detect various types of issues including bugs, security vulnerabilities, performance problems, and code quality concerns.
Open Code Review
This Codex plugin skill intentionally mirrors the canonical skill at
skills/open-code-review/SKILL.md. Keep both files synchronized when updating
OCR agent instructions; a symlink is avoided because plugin installs may only
materialize the plugin subtree.
A skill for invoking open-code-review (ocr), an open-source AI code review CLI that reads Git diffs and generates structured, line-level review comments.
Workflow
Step 1: Gather Business Context
Analyze the review target (commits, branch, or changes) to extract concise business context. Pass this context via --background to improve review quality.
Step 2: Run Code Review
Do not pre-check whether ocr is installed, skip probes like command -v ocr or ocr --version. Assume the CLI is available and run the review directly; that saves a tool call on the common path. Only if the review fails with command not found should you install it per Troubleshooting.
Run the OCR command with appropriate flags. Always pass business context via --background when available:
ocr review --audience agent --background "business context here" [user-args]
