What it does

Review Pre Commit is an agent skill from openwpm/OpenWPM. Use as a pre-commit quality gate — review the working diff for stub patterns (TODO/FIXME/unimplemented!()/todo!()), debug leftovers (dbg!, stray console.log/println!, commented-out code), then run the project's lint, format, and test suites and verify the active crosslink issue is documented. Prints a PASS/FAIL checklist and hands off to commit. Trigger when the user says "review my changes", "/review", "ready to commit?", or asks for a final pass before committing.

Its SKILL.md is about 790 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 Testing & QA, covering Test generation, Quality gates and Linting and formatting. It works with Python, Rust and Elixir. The repository describes itself as: A web privacy measurement framework.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says review my changes
  • Ready to commit?
  • Asks for a final pass before committing

Example prompts

  • “review my changes”
  • “/review”
  • “ready to commit?”
  • “/review-pre-commit”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Review full diff
  2. Scan for stub patterns
  3. Check for debug leftovers
  4. Run lint and format checks
  5. Run test suite
  6. Verify crosslink issue documentation
  7. Print checklist

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit da628ba. 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:

    • cargo
    • npm
    • go

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, 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

Review Pre Commit loads about 788 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 292 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~125
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~788

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 292 words (~788 tokens).

“You are about to commit. Run through this structured review to catch issues before they land.”
