What it does
Code Review is an agent skill from microsoft/vscode-containers, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Review a pull request in this repository (the vscode-containers / Container Tools extension) when the automated reviewer has already supplied the diff and changed files. Checks localization, async/resource correctness, TypeScript conventions, command-line construction, telemetry, settings, and cross-platform issues distilled from this repo's review history. For an on-demand review by PR number, URL, or current branch, use review-pr instead.
Its SKILL.md is about 420 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `rubric.md`).
It sits in Development, covering Pull requests, Containers and Code review. It works with Visual Studio Code, TypeScript and Docker. The repository describes itself as: Container Tools Extension for Visual Studio Code.

Example prompts
- “/code-review”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7a3c5c3. 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.
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 Review loads about 415 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 114 tokens; SKILL.md has 189 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 189 words (~415 tokens).
“Apply the shared grading rubric in rubric.md to the pull request under review. That file is the single source of truth for what to look for and how to grade it -- read it and follow it.”

- code-review
