What it does

Closeout pass on a finished substantive change, sequence refactor-clean (shape), code-review (diff), and write-docs (docs) so all three run, in the order where each feeds the next. Use after implementing a slice or feature and before calling it done or committing; when the user asks for a final review, a cleanup-and-document pass, or to "review everything." For a diff-only audit, reach code-review directly.

Review

A finished change earns "done" only after three lenses pass: its shape, its diff, and its docs. Each has a specialist skill. This skill owns only what they can't, the order they run in, the loop between them, and one verdict.

Workflow

  1. Scope. Fix the diff under review and confirm it's substantive; skip the whole pass for trivial edits.
  2. Shape, refactor-clean. Run it first, while restructuring is cheap and before you audit a diff that's about to move.
  3. Diff, code-review. Audit the settled shape. A finding that forces a structural change sends you back to step 2, not onward.
  4. Docs, write-docs. Update the docs this change touched. Then trace the link chain from the root README down to each one: every link on the path still resolves, and the hub-to-leaf flow still reads in order.
  5. Report. One verdict across all three passes, what each found, what you changed, what you left and why. Done only when every pass is clean or resolved.

Rules

  • When you enter a pass, read its skill, the rules live there, not here.
  • Order governs presentation, not disclosure: surface a finding the moment you hit it, even when a later pass owns it.
  • Loop, don't cascade: a later fix that reopens an earlier pass returns there. Stop when a full pass adds nothing.
