name: review-changes
description: >-
Use when reviewing a diff, PR, or a batch of changed files and you need to know where the risk
concentrates — which changed units have the largest blast radius, whether the highest-risk ones
are actually covered by tests, and whether the result is safe to merge. Trigger phrases: "review
these changes", "how risky is this diff", "what's the blast radius", "did anything untested
change", "rank these changes by risk". Not for a pass/fail preflight of style, security, and
layering checks — that is `code-review-checklist`; run the checklist for the mechanical gates and
reach for this skill to decide where its attention should concentrate. The two compose: checklist
for gates, this skill for prioritization.

> **This is the generic copy.** If this project has been scaffolded, prefer the unprefixed

> extensions and any `project-local.md` merged in. This copy has neither.

> The full procedure is in `SKILL.full.md` beside this file, unchanged — read it if the project has no
