Does this skill modify my current working branch?

No. For deep analysis, it creates a temporary git worktree in /tmp to run tests and linters without affecting your local checkout.

Can it distinguish between a GitHub PR and an Issue?

Yes, the skill automatically detects the target type via the URL or ID and switches to a specialized workflow for either PR reviews or Issue comments.

How does it handle large codebases without hitting context limits?

It delegates heavy file analysis and validation to a subagent (Task tool), which returns a condensed report to the main conversation.

What is the benefit of the 'Quick Review' mode?

Quick Review analyzes the diff and metadata directly without cloning the repository, making it ideal for small changes or rapid feedback.

Does it take previous comments into account?

Yes, it fetches and analyzes the entire discussion history to ensure it doesn't re-raise issues that have already been resolved.

Performs comprehensive GitHub pull request and issue analysis, including architectural review, test validation, and scope creep detection.

This skill streamlines the code review process by automating the heavy lifting of GitHub PR and Issue analysis. It intelligently switches between deep-dive 'Full' reviews—which utilize subagents to clone worktrees, run tests, and execute linters—and 'Quick' reviews for rapid diff summaries. By analyzing discussion history, CI/CD status, and identifying unrelated changes ('scope creep'), it helps developers maintain high code quality and provides a professional draft for review comments or issue responses.
