What it does

Factory GitLab Rereview is an agent skill from mastra-ai/mastra. Re-review a GitLab merge request after new commits and reconcile the previous review

Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k 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. It works with GitLab and Git. The repository describes itself as: Mastra is the modern TypeScript framework for AI-powered applications and agents.

When your agent uses it

  • Development work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/factory-gitlab-rereview”

Requirements

  • A credential in GITHUB_TOKEN
  • A credential in GITLAB_TOKEN

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the MR with source_control_get_change_request and establish the current head SHA and base branch. Call…
  2. Before inspecting any diff, recover the required outcome and simplest sufficient design from the prior pass, or write them now from the…
  3. Identify changes since the previous reviewed head using local git history and diff. Classify every prior substantive finding as addressed…
  4. Review the incremental diff for regressions, incomplete fixes, test gaps, and scope changes, then review the cumulative MR against the…
  5. Inspect execution hooks for untrusted behavior before running tests. Run safe, narrow applicable tests and typecheck against the current…
  6. Before publishing, call factory_review_source (no arguments) once. It returns four fields, every one derived server-side from the bound…
  7. Publish a complete current-head verdict with source_control_review_change_request. Compose the body fresh in this pass — never reuse an…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b98829a. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, 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:

    • GH_TOKEN
    • GITHUB_TOKEN
    • GITLAB_TOKEN
    • GITLAB_ACCESS_TOKEN

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

Context cost

Factory GitLab Rereview loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,384 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.5k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,384 words (~2,453 tokens).

“Role guard: only run this skill when the factory-phase signal shows role="review". Under any other role, stop immediately: do not review, comment, label, approve, or transition the work item, and report that review skills are not available to this role.”
