What it does

Review Cycle is an agent skill from prassanna-ravishankar/repowire. Use when coordinating PR review, CI triage, second-peer critique, requested-changes loops, merge readiness, or deciding whether implementation needs independent verification.

Its SKILL.md is about 320 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 Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: May the agents talk . Connect Claude Code, Opencode, Codex, Pi across projects, across machines and with your telegram.

When your agent uses it

  • Coordinating PR review
  • Second-peer critique
  • Requested-changes loops
  • Merge readiness

Example prompts

  • “/review-cycle”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Define what is being reviewed: branch, PR, ask ID, job ID, or file set.
  2. Ask a reviewer peer for findings first, ordered by severity with file/line refs.
  3. Route actionable findings to the implementation owner.
  4. Verify fixes with tests, CI, and the real behavior when applicable.
  5. Summarize residual risk and the merge/release decision separately.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7c8100a. 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

Review Cycle loads about 318 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 167 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~47
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~318

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 167 words (~318 tokens).

“Use review cycles when the cost of a missed bug is higher than the cost of an independent pass.”
