Use before merging a branch or PR: review the diff for bugs that pass CI but break production, fix the obvious ones and ask about the rest. (gstack).

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

<!-- Generated by scripts/gen-qm-edition.ts from hosts/qm.ts and review/checklist.md, review/SKILL.md.tmpl. Do not edit. -->

# Review: find what passes CI but breaks in production

**Start here.** In the repository (`cd` into it first: the shell starts in the workspace root), run with `execute` (pass the base branch if you know it):

```sh
sh skills/gstack-review/scripts/diff-base.sh <base>
```

It prints the base, the merge base, the commits since the base and the diff stat, then `NEXT: git diff <merge base>`; run that and read the whole diff and every untracked file before you comment (on `UNTRACKED_MORE:`, list the rest with the command it names). On `NOTHING_TO_REVIEW`, say so and stop. On `BASE: none`, ask the user for the base branch or review the uncommitted changes it shows.

QM fills in the absolute path of the folder its `skill` tool synced (it prints that path too). If the script is missing, run this instead:

```sh
git merge-base origin/main HEAD
git diff --stat <merge-base>
```

## How to review

1. Read the full diff, then the unchanged callers of anything it changes.
2. Apply the CRITICAL categories, then the INFORMATIONAL ones, below. Respect the suppressions.
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add garrytan/gstack/gstack-review@sha256:d25690404277c61d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.ef99eb5, 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.
