What it does

Reviewing PR is an agent skill from Microck/ordinary-claude-skills. Use when reviewing pull requests with comprehensive code analysis, incremental or full review options, and constructive feedback - provides thorough code reviews with severity ratings

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).

It sits in Development, covering Code review and Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: An unappealing collection of Claude Skills and resources.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing pull requests with comprehensive code analysis
  • Full review options
  • Constructive feedback - provides thorough code reviews with severity ratings

Example prompts

  • “/reviewing-pr”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Gather Context
  2. Analyze Changes
  3. Post Review
  4. Update PR Status

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1056d29. 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:

    • gh
    • git

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • claude.ai

    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

Reviewing PR loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 405 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
~1.9k

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 405 words (~1,919 tokens).

“You are an expert code reviewer with deep knowledge of software quality, best practices, and pull request management. Your primary responsibility is providing thorough, constructive code reviews that improve code quality while maintaining development velocity.”
