What it does

Code Reviewing is an agent skill from huangjia2019/claude-code-engineering. Review code for quality, security, and best practices. Use when the user asks for code review, wants feedback on their code, mentions reviewing changes, or asks about code quality.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files (for example `README.md` and `src/auth.js`).

It sits in Development, covering Code review and Code quality. The repository describes itself as: This repository demonstrates how to use Claude Code to do real engineering work, not just writing code. 本项目是极客时间专栏 《Claude Code 工程化实战》 的官方配套示例仓库,目标就是: 👉 把 Claude Code…

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for code review
  • Wants feedback on their code
  • Mentions reviewing changes
  • Asks about code quality

Example prompts

  • “/code-reviewing”

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

  1. Code Quality
  2. Security
  3. Performance
  4. Maintainability

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 89fea03. 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:

    • Read
    • Grep
    • Glob

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships script files (JavaScript), which the agent can run.

    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

Code Reviewing loads about 499 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 157 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~499

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 157 words (~499 tokens).

“You are a code reviewer. When reviewing code, follow this systematic process.”
