What it does

Review is an agent skill from shepherdjerred/monorepo. This skill should be used when the user asks to "review implementation", "compare to plan", "check what was missed", "audit the implementation", "verify completeness", "quality check", or mentions "plan vs implementation", "did we miss anything", "stretch goals", "code quality audit". Reviews completed work against the original plan for completeness, quality, and thoroughness.

Its SKILL.md is about 590 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: Monorepo for all of my projects. The licence is GPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks to review implementation
  • Compare to plan
  • Check what was missed
  • Audit the implementation

Example prompts

  • “review implementation”
  • “compare to plan”
  • “check what was missed”
  • “/review”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, Bash, Task, Edit, Write, WebFetch, WebSearch, AskUserQuestion

Workflow steps

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

  1. Completeness Check
  2. Quality Check
  3. Infrastructure Check
  4. Documentation Check
  5. Skills/Tooling Check

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit da14ae9. 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:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Bash
    • Task
    • Edit
    • Write
    • WebFetch
    • WebSearch
    • AskUserQuestion

    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 loads about 586 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 97 tokens; SKILL.md has 239 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~97
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~586

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.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Read, Glob, Grep, Bash, Task, Edit, Write, WebFetch, WebSearch, AskUserQuestion

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.

Review Skill

Review an implementation against its plan, checking for completeness, quality, and thoroughness.

Instructions

When this skill is invoked, perform a comprehensive review of the implementation against its original plan.

1. Completeness Check
  • Missed requirements - Was anything from the plan missed?
  • Skipped items - Were any items skipped or marked as "stretch"? (We want everything, including stretches)
  • TODOs/FIXMEs - Are there any TODOs or FIXMEs left behind in the code?
2. Quality Check
  • Shortcuts - Did we take shortcuts or the "easy way out" anywhere?
  • Code structure - Is the code well-structured and maintainable?
  • Edge cases - Are edge cases handled properly?
  • Error handling - Is error handling robust?
3. Infrastructure Check
  • Automated testing - Is there automated testing?
  • Linting - Is linting configured and passing?
  • Pre-commit hooks - Are pre-commit hooks in place?
  • CI/CD - Is CI/CD configured?
4. Documentation Check
  • Docs updates - Do any docs need updating?
  • AGENTS.md updates - Does the project AGENTS.md need updates?
  • Pattern documentation - Are there new patterns that should be documented?
5. Skills/Tooling Check
  • Existing skills - Do any existing skills need updating?
  • New skills - Should new skills be created for new workflows?
  • Automation opportunities - Are there repetitive tasks that could be automated?

Workflow

  1. Ask the user for the plan location if not provided
  2. Read the original plan
  3. Identify all implemented files and changes
  4. Go through each checklist item systematically
  5. Report findings with specific file references and line numbers
  6. Suggest concrete next steps for any gaps found

How do I install Review in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add shepherdjerred/monorepo --skill review -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (packages/dotfiles/dot_agents/skills/review in shepherdjerred/monorepo) into .claude/skills/review in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Review in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add shepherdjerred/monorepo --skill review -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/review, .gemini/skills/review, .github/skills/review and .opencode/skills/review in your project.

What does Review need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Review is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Read, Glob, Grep, Bash, Task, Edit, Write, WebFetch, WebSearch, AskUserQuestion.

Does Review access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Review safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Review use?

Review is published under the GPL-3.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Review use?

About 586 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.3k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
