What is the Review Race skill?

Review Race is a Claude Code skill that utilizes a file-based FIFO queue to organize, sequence, and manage code review tasks efficiently.

How does this skill prevent race conditions?

By enforcing a strict First-In-First-Out order, the skill ensures that each review or task is processed individually in the order it was submitted, avoiding overlapping conflicts.

Does Review Race require a database?

No, it uses a lightweight file-based queue system (ffq), allowing it to run locally without the need for complex database infrastructure.

Who is this skill intended for?

It is intended for developers and teams who handle multiple concurrent code changes and need a reliable way to manage review priority and execution.

Can I use this for automated CI/CD tasks?

Yes, it is highly effective for sequencing automated tests and deployment tasks that must occur in a specific, non-overlapping order.

About

Review Race is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to streamline high-volume code review workflows by leveraging a file-based FIFO (First-In-First-Out) queue. By organizing review requests and automated tasks into a structured sequence, it ensures that code changes are evaluated in the order they were received, preventing overlapping edits and race conditions in collaborative environments. This skill is particularly useful for teams managing complex PR pipelines or developers using Claude to perform sequential refactoring tasks across multiple files.
