What it does

Review Code is an agent skill from ankitvgupta/exo. Pre-commit code review for production-critical issues. Use when reviewing staged changes, before committing, or when asked to review code for bugs and consistency issues.

Its SKILL.md is about 5.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `project-specific.md` and `review-patterns.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Code review. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code for your Inbox.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing staged changes
  • Before committing
  • Asked to review code for bugs and consistency issues

Example prompts

  • “/review-code”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Glob, Grep, Edit, Task, LSP

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Gather Context
  2. Read Full File Context
  3. Run 14 Parallel Review Agents
  4. Cross-Agent Deduplication
  5. Systemic Pattern Detection
  6. Score and Filter
  7. Report
  8. Fix Issues

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 04da760. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Edit
    • Task
    • LSP

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Review Code loads about 5.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,480 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Glob, Grep, Edit, Task, LSP

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,480 words (~5,751 tokens).

“Review staged changes for production-critical issues before committing. This catches the kinds of bugs that CI review bots find — type safety violations, IPC contract mismatches, missing references, and frontend/backend inconsistencies. Uses 14 parallel review agents for comprehensive coverage.”
