What it does

Respond Review is an agent skill from danielvm-git/bigpowers. Act on a reviewer agent's feedback systematically — categorize findings, apply fixes, verify tests still pass. Use after request-review returns a report, or when user wants to work through code review findings.

Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development. The repository describes itself as: Agent skills synthesizing years of software engineering discipline into a prescriptive methodology for solo developers. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Wants to work through code review findings

Example prompts

  • “/respond-review”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Read the full review report
  2. Categorize findings
  3. Confirm with user (for consider-category items)
  4. Apply must-fix items first
  5. Apply should-fix items
  6. Run the full suite
  7. Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 812d57a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

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

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

Respond Review loads about 539 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 230 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~539

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

Respond Review

HARD GATE — HARD GATE — Every reviewer comment must be addressed (fix, disagree + document reason, or ask clarification). Do NOT ignore feedback and merge.

Work through reviewer findings systematically. Don't apply changes blindly — categorize first, then decide, then fix, then verify.

Process

1. Read the full review report

Read every finding before acting on any of them. Get the full picture first.

2. Categorize findings

For each finding, assign a category:

CategoryMeaningAction
must-fixCorrectness bug, security issue, test failure, CONVENTIONS.md violationFix before proceeding
should-fixCode quality issue, naming, clarity — worth fixing but not blockingFix if time allows
considerArchitectural suggestion, alternative approach — may or may not applyDiscuss with user

Create a numbered list of all findings with their categories.

3. Confirm with user (for consider-category items)

For each "consider" item, briefly describe the trade-off and ask: "Apply, skip, or discuss?"

4. Apply must-fix items first

Fix every must-fix item. For each one:

  • Describe what you're changing and why
  • Make the change
  • Run the verify command if one exists for this area
5. Apply should-fix items

Apply should-fix items. If any are large enough to warrant their own commit, note them separately.

6. Run the full suite

After all changes are applied:

bash
<full test command>
<typecheck command>
<lint command>
  • All tests pass
  • No type errors
  • No lint violations
7. Report

Summarize what was applied and what was skipped:

Applied (must-fix): #1, #2, #3
Applied (should-fix): #4
Skipped (consider): #5 — agreed with user to defer
All tests pass.
