Review code for real problems before it goes anywhere. Use when the user asks to review this, look over my code, check this for bugs, tell me if this is any good, find what is wrong with this, review my PR, or asks whether a change is safe to merge or ready for someone else to read. Also use before opening a pull request, after finishing a feature, or when a reviewer has called something sloppy.

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.

What the file says

# Reviewing changes

Find real problems. Style opinions waste the one pass someone will actually read,
and a review that opens on naming teaches the author that reviews are noise.

The agent owns routine review and repair. Do not hand the diff to the user as a
required code-review step. Use a separate reviewer context, fix substantiated
findings within scope, rerun affected checks, and review the changed result.
Ask the user only for a genuine unresolved product decision or required authority.
Independent automated review reduces risk; it does not guarantee bug-free code.

For a local Git checkout, `review-gate run --repo PATH` starts a separate read-only
Codex reviewer. `review-gate check --repo PATH` checks whether its receipt still
matches the current files. A changed file invalidates the receipt. Review errors,
incomplete coverage and findings are not clean reviews. Read the report, resolve
concrete findings, then run again. After three unsuccessful repair cycles, diagnose
the unresolved cause and report it plainly instead of claiming completion or
asking the user to perform the review. Preserve unrelated edits.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add calebnewtonusc/chewbacca/reviewing-changes@sha256:41053e29bf747c05

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.fcc7e97, 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.
