Code review heuristics — five-axis review lens (correctness, security, design integrity, test coverage, comment quality); review comment tone (observation over accusation); nitpick filtering; distinguishing a real finding from linter noise. Auto-load when writing or framing a review comment, reviewing a diff for correctness, or filtering review nitpicks.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# Code Review

Principles for high-signal code review. For tool-specific mechanics (diff-size routing, suggestion-block format, GitHub workflow), see the `swe-workbench:reviewer` agent.

## Five-Axis Review Lens

Every review covers five axes:

- **Correctness** — off-by-ones, null paths, concurrency races, lost errors, unhandled edge cases, null elements inside externally-deserialized collections (a valid payload can populate them), paired-guard predicate gaps (a check enforced by one sibling but missing in its pair).
- **Security** — injection, auth/authz gaps, secrets in code, unsafe deserialization, SSRF, missing input validation at trust boundaries.
- **Design integrity** — SOLID violations, leaky abstractions, tight coupling, circular deps, domain logic bleeding into infrastructure.
  *For complexity / duplication / length, prefer Quality-stage output over subjective comments — see `swe-workbench:workflow-development`.*
- **Tests** — missing coverage on new branches, brittle tests, tests that mirror implementation rather than behavior.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lugassawan/swe-workbench/principle-code-review@sha256:8bd8e05bfe41a7f3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260924.21f932a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
