## Description

Review code changes from multiple perspectives with context bootstrap, depth-tier rigor, and structured findings output.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# Code Review Skill Entry

This `SKILL.md` is the entrypoint for the Code Review skill.

The skill provides a reusable review workflow for pull requests, branch diffs, and local changes across functional, standards, accessibility, security, and readiness perspectives. It separates the review target and profile from perspective and depth selection, and centralizes change-brief preparation, severity normalization, and output contracts so review agents stay thin and consistent.

## Shared principles

Review work should stay anchored in evidence and should avoid premature conclusions. Keep the review grounded in file and line evidence, use proportional depth based on risk, read the full diff range before narrowing, and keep factual orientation separate from structured findings.

## Local write boundary

Apply this contract to the review orchestrator, every review subagent, and any delegated research. It is behavioral guidance, not a filesystem sandbox.
