What it does
Pre Commit Review is an agent skill from openshift-eng/ai-helpers. Review staged and unstaged changes before committing. Use when asked for a pre-commit review, a code-quality review of the current diff, or when a solve workflow requests an independent review.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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, covering Code quality. The repository describes itself as: Developer productivity tools for Claude Code & other AI assistants. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Asked for a pre-commit review
- A code-quality review of the current diff
- A solve workflow requests an independent review
Example prompts
- “/pre-commit-review”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a627176. 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:
gitmakegocargonpmyarnpython
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, npm and yarn, 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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Pre Commit Review loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 734 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.

Synopsis
/code-review:pre-commit-review [--language <lang>] [--profile <name>] [--skip-build] [--skip-tests]Purpose
Review the current staged and unstaged changes before committing. Assess test coverage, idiomatic code, duplication, design, and build verification. Review only the current diff; do not report pre-existing issues in unchanged code.
The same-named skill replaces the former plugin command, so the /code-review:pre-commit-review invocation remains available in Claude Code. Install the plugin through APM to expose this skill to OpenCode and other supported clients.
Workflow
1. Resolve options and review guidance
Read options from the skill invocation or the user's request:
| Option | Behavior |
|---|---|
--language <lang> | Apply language-specific review guidance. If omitted, detect from changed-file extensions. |
--profile <name> | Apply project-specific conventions and checks. |
--skip-build | Skip build verification and report it as skipped. |
--skip-tests | Skip unit-test coverage review and report it as skipped. |
Detect the primary language from changed-file extensions: .go → Go, .py → Python, .rs → Rust, .ts/.tsx → TypeScript, and .java → Java. If files are mixed or the language has no guidance, continue with a general review.
Load optional guidance from sibling skill directories, relative to this SKILL.md:
- Language:
../<language>-code-review/SKILL.md(currently available:../go-code-review/SKILL.md). - Profile:
../<name>-code-review/SKILL.md(for example,../hypershift-code-review/SKILL.md).
If requested guidance is absent, say so and continue without it. Give loaded guidance to each relevant review pass.
Completion criterion: all supplied options are accounted for, and each available language/profile guide has been loaded before reviewing.
2. Establish the diff
Collect and deduplicate changed paths from both git diff --name-only and git diff --cached --name-only. Categorize them as source, tests, configuration, or documentation. If the diff is empty, report that and stop. If no source files changed, narrow the review accordingly.
Completion criterion: the complete staged and unstaged file list is recorded, with no unchanged files added to scope.
3. Review the changes
Run these independent review passes:
- Test coverage — unless
--skip-testswas supplied, check for tests covering changed behavior, new public functions, edge cases, and error paths. A missing test for a new public function with non-trivial logic is blocking. Apply language and profile test conventions. - Idiomatic code — apply language guidance when available; otherwise assess error handling, naming, clarity, and complexity. Follow relevant project guidance.
- DRY — find duplication, repeated patterns, copy-paste code, and values that should be named constants. Apply profile guidance about shared project utilities.
- Design — assess responsibilities, extensibility, interface contracts, interface size, and dependency direction in proportion to the change.
- Profile-specific review — apply extra checks and reviewer perspectives named by the profile.
Keep each pass independent until findings are collected. When the host supports agent delegation, delegate independent passes concurrently and provide each reviewer with the changed-file list and relevant guidance. Otherwise, perform the passes sequentially in this session. If the profile names specialist reviewers, use the host's available delegation mechanism; without delegation, apply each specialist perspective as a separate pass. Provide the full diff and available PR or issue context to profile-specific reviewers.
Completion criterion: every applicable pass has examined every in-scope change, and skipped passes are recorded with the supplied option that skipped them.

4. Verify the build
Unless --skip-build was supplied, run the most specific available build/verification command in this order:
- Profile guidance.
- Language guidance.
- Project detection:
make build(or the documented defaultmake) when aMakefileis present;go build ./...for Go;cargo buildfor Rust;npm run buildoryarn buildfor JavaScript/TypeScript;python -m py_compileon changed files for Python.
Run this alongside review passes when the host supports concurrent work. Record the command and result. On failure, include the relevant output and mark the overall review as FAIL. If explicitly skipped, report it as skipped; do not imply that the build was verified.
Completion criterion: build verification is recorded as passed, failed, or explicitly skipped; no result is implied.
5. Report findings
Return a structured report with:
- Files reviewed, categorized by type.
- Unit-test coverage findings, or that the pass was skipped.
- Idiomatic code findings, naming the language when applicable.
- DRY and design findings.
- Build command and result.
- Profile-specific findings, if applicable.
- Overall verdict:
PASS,FAIL, orPASS WITH RECOMMENDATIONS. - Required actions (blocking) and recommended improvements (non-blocking).
Make findings specific and actionable, with file:line references where possible. Match review depth to change risk. Offer to fix straightforward issues rather than silently expanding the review into implementation.
Completion criterion: every finding is tied to changed code, has an actionable recommendation, and the verdict reflects all review and build results.
