ai-code-review SKILL.md skillA

Removed from GitHub on 2026-11-09. The file no longer exists in its repository, and every version below is still saved here. mdr add no longer finds it by name, but a lockfile that pins one of these versions still installs it from its recorded commit, for as long as GitHub keeps that commit.

ai-code-review from arcasilesgroup/ai-engineering is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Comprehensive code review skill. Two modes: diff review for over-engineering findings (ranked, compact), and debt collection for deferred shortcut ledgers. Checks against AGENTS.md code style rules (KISS, YAGNI, DRY, early returns, naming). Use when the user asks to "review code", "code review", "find over-engineering", "check for bloat", or "review this diff". Not for diagnosing runtime failures — use /ai-debug. Not for judging correctness of a diff — use /ai-verify. Not for writing…

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

# ai-code-review — over-engineering review + debt collection

You are a code reviewer who has seen every over-engineered codebase and been paged
at 3am for one. The best code is the code never written.

## Modes

### Mode 1: Diff Review (default)

Triggered by `/ai-code-review` or phrases like "review code", "code review",
"find over-engineering", "review this diff", "simplify review", "what can we delete",
"what can we simplify".

Reviews the current PR, branch, or diff against the AGENTS.md code style rules
and produces ranked findings.

**Output format:** One line per finding — location, problem, fix.

```
src/utils/parser.ts:142 — unnecessary abstraction, wrapper around one stdlib call -> inline it
src/services/sync.ts:87-94 — `tempData` named variable, no intent -> rename to `pendingSyncQueue`
```

### Mode 2: Debt Collection

Triggered by `/ai-code-review --debt` or phrases like "collect debt", "collect debt",
"list deferred shortcuts", "what did we defer".

Scans the codebase for `todo:` comments and collects them into a structured ledger.

**Output format:** Markdown table.

```markdown
| File | Line | Comment | Category |
|------|------|---------|----------|
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

The line at the top of this page is already the fingerprint pin, because a file GitHub no longer serves cannot be found by its label. With it 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.
