What the file says

# Code Review Standards

Teaches the agent to discover and apply organization-specific coding standards stored in a `.forge-review/` directory in the target repository. This skill provides configuration templates and standard rule files that teams can customize.

## Overview

The `.forge-review/` directory is a convention for storing code review configuration alongside the codebase. When present, the `code-review` skill automatically loads these standards and applies them during reviews.

This skill:
- Documents the `.forge-review/` directory structure and file formats
- Provides templates for bootstrapping review standards in new repositories
- Teaches the agent how to discover and interpret standards files

## Directory Structure

```
.forge-review/
├── config.yaml                  # Review configuration
