What it does

Ijfw Review is an agent skill from FerroxLabs/ijfw. Use when the user asks for a review of any artifact -- code diff, PR, book chapter, campaign brief, landing-page copy, or design tokens. Trigger: review, code review, review this, PR review, review my X, review chapter, review brief, review page, /ijfw-review

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Frontend & Design, covering Copywriting, Code review and Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: IJFW — It Just Fcking Works. Ferrox Labs' local-first infrastructure for AI coding agents: shared memory, smart routing, multi-AI cross-audits, disciplined workflow. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for a review of any artifact -- code diff
  • Landing-page copy

Example prompts

  • “/ijfw-review”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eda62f3. 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 markdown and gate-result).

    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

Ijfw Review loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 471 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

since
1.5.0

Domain-agnostic critique. One-line findings, severity-tagged, with a written REVIEW.md artifact.

Severity vocabulary (all domains)

  • BLOCK -- must-fix before ship. Bug, data loss, broken claim, factual error, WCAG violation, missing CTA.
  • FLAG -- should discuss. Risky choice, weak evidence, voice break, ambiguous audience, fragile coupling.
  • NIT -- polish. Phrasing, micro-spacing, naming, redundancy.

Format per finding: <LOC>: [SEVERITY] <one-line problem>. <one-line fix>. <LOC> is file:line for code, <section> or <page> for prose/design.

Domain checklists

Software (code diff / PR)
  • Null & undefined handling, error paths, retry/backoff semantics.
  • Security boundaries: input validation, authz, secret leakage, path traversal.
  • Test coverage: happy path + at least one failure case per public surface.
  • Concurrency: race conditions, idempotency, ordering assumptions.
  • Public API: backward compatibility, types, naming.
Book chapter
  • Continuity with prior chapters (character state, world facts, timeline).
  • Voice / POV consistency.
  • Pacing: scene-vs-summary ratio, dwell on stakes.
  • Character beats: motivation legible, agency visible.
  • Stakes: what is at risk on this page, why now.
Campaign brief
  • Audience: named, specific, has a current alternative.
  • Message-to-channel fit: format matches where the audience already is.
  • CTA: single, frictionless, measurable.
  • KPI coverage: leading + lagging indicator named.
  • Kill criteria: the condition under which you stop spending.
Landing page (copy + layout)
  • Promise -> proof -> CTA alignment in the first viewport.
  • Mobile-readiness: tap targets >= 44px, no horizontal scroll, hero readable at 375px.
  • Accessibility: WCAG AA contrast 4.5:1 body / 3:1 large text; alt text on meaningful images; keyboard reachable CTA.
  • Conversion-path friction: number of decisions before primary CTA.
Design artifact (tokens / mockup)
  • Token consistency: every color/space/radius/shadow resolves to a defined token.
  • Contrast: WCAG AA on every text-on-surface pair.
  • Type scale: modular ratio respected; no orphan sizes.
  • Spacing rhythm: 4/8 baseline (or declared grid) respected.

Output rules

  • Lead with BLOCK findings, then FLAG, then NIT.
  • No praise for meeting baseline expectations.
  • Max 10 findings unless the caller asks for exhaustive.
  • If nothing found: Clean. Reviewed <N> <units> across BLOCK/FLAG/NIT gates. No findings.

Artifact-write contract (MANDATORY)

Every review MUST write a REVIEW.md to a predictable path so the artifact is durable and resumable:

  • Software review of a planned unit of work: .planning/<milestone>/<phase-dir>/REVIEW.md
  • Software review without a planning context (ad-hoc PR): REVIEW.md at the repo root, or <branch>-REVIEW.md if reviewing a named branch.
  • Standalone artifact (chapter, brief, page, design file): write <artifact-basename>-REVIEW.md alongside the artifact. Example: chapter-7.md -> chapter-7-REVIEW.md.
REVIEW.md required sections
markdown
# Review: <artifact name>

Reviewed: <ISO-8601 timestamp>
Reviewer: ijfw-review
Domain: <software | book | campaign | landing | design>

## Summary
<2-4 sentences. Headline verdict + the single most important thing to fix.>

## BLOCK findings (must-fix)
- <LOC>: <one-line problem>. <one-line fix>.

## FLAG findings (should-discuss)
- <LOC>: <one-line problem>. <one-line fix>.

## NIT findings (polish)
- <LOC>: <one-line problem>. <one-line fix>.

If a section has no findings, keep the header and write (none) underneath -- absence is a signal, not a typo.

Second opinion

For high-stakes artifacts the caller can request a multi-lens audit via /cross-audit -- this fans the same artifact across Trident (codex / gemini / claude) and converges on a consensus verdict. Use it when stakes warrant a second pair of eyes.

Output contract

Emit a gate-result block as the LAST content of your output. Nothing after it. Use gate="swarm-review". Statuses: PASS | CONDITIONAL | WARN | FLAG | FAIL.

affected_artifacts MUST include the absolute path to the REVIEW.md that was written.

Format:

gate-result
{
  "schema_version": "1.0",
  "gate": "swarm-review",
  "status": "<STATUS>",
  "project_type": "<from project-type-detector>",
  "lenses": [],
  "affected_artifacts": ["<absolute path to REVIEW.md>"],
  "accounting": {"duration_ms": 0, "lenses_invoked": 0, "cost_usd": null},
  "remediation": [],
  "receipts_ref": null,
  "supersedes": null,
  "gate_id": "<gate-with-colons-replaced-by-dashes>-<ts>-<rand4>",
  "emitted_at": "<ISO-8601>"
