What it does

Adr Review is an agent skill from ruvnet/ruflo. Review code changes against accepted ADRs for compliance violations

Its SKILL.md is about 620 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 Architecture decision records. The repository describes itself as: 🌊 The original agent harness. Deploy intelligent multi-player swarms, coordinate autonomous workflows, and build conversational AI systems. Features adaptive memory…. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Architecture decision records

Example prompts

  • “/adr-review”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__agentdb_hierarchical-query, mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__agentdb_causal-query, mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search, Bash, Read, Grep, Glob

Workflow steps

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

  1. Get diff -- Run git diff main...HEAD --name-only (or the specified branch) to list changed files. Then run git diff main...HEAD to get the…
  2. Find relevant ADRs -- For each changed file
  3. Load ADR content -- Read each relevant ADR file. Focus on
  4. Check for violations -- Analyze each changed file against its relevant ADRs
  5. Query relationship graph -- Call mcpplugin_ruflo-core_rufloagentdb_causal-query to check if any referenced ADRs have been superseded. If…
  6. Report -- Present findings as a compliance report
  7. Suggest actions -- For each violation, suggest whether to update the code or propose a new ADR to supersede the violated one.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6c04654. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__agentdb_hierarchical-query
    • mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__agentdb_causal-query
    • mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search
    • Bash
    • Read
    • Grep
    • Glob

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

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

  • Network

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

Adr Review loads about 618 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 253 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~20
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~618

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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.

ADR Review

Review code changes against accepted Architecture Decision Records to detect violations, drift, and non-compliance.

When to use

Before merging a PR, after significant code changes, or as part of a periodic compliance check. Use this to ensure code changes respect the architectural decisions the team has agreed upon.

Steps

  1. Get diff -- Run git diff main...HEAD --name-only (or the specified branch) to list changed files. Then run git diff main...HEAD to get the full diff content.

  2. Find relevant ADRs -- For each changed file:

    • Grep the file for ADR references (ADR-\d+)
    • Grep docs/adr/ for ADRs that mention the changed file paths or modules
    • Call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search with the file path and change summary to find semantically related ADRs

  3. Load ADR content -- Read each relevant ADR file. Focus on:

    • The Decision section (what was decided)
    • The Status (only enforce "accepted" ADRs)
    • The Consequences (expected constraints)

  4. Check for violations -- Analyze each changed file against its relevant ADRs:

    • Does the code change contradict an accepted decision?
    • Does it use a technology/pattern that an ADR explicitly rejected?
    • Does it modify a module in a way the ADR's consequences warned against?
    • Is the code referencing a deprecated or superseded ADR?

  5. Query relationship graph -- Call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__agentdb_causal-query to check if any referenced ADRs have been superseded. If so, flag that the code references an outdated decision.

  6. Report -- Present findings as a compliance report:

    ## ADR Compliance Report

### Violations
- [ ] <file>:<line> — violates ADR-NNN: <reason>

### Warnings
- [!] <file> references superseded ADR-NNN (replaced by ADR-MMM)

### Compliant
- [x] <file> — consistent with ADR-NNN

### Unlinked Changes
- [?] <file> — no ADR coverage (consider creating one)

  7. Suggest actions -- For each violation, suggest whether to update the code or propose a new ADR to supersede the violated one.
