version: 1.0.0
Review code written during a run, auto-fix no-brainer issues, and suggest improvements requiring confirmation.
- Invoked by run-execute after tests pass (Step 6b)
- Receives: files_created, files_modified, run_id, intent context
- AUTO-FIX: LOW — Only mechanical, non-semantic changes
- SUGGESTIONS: MEDIUM — Present options, let user decide
REVIEW all files created/modified in current run
AUTO-FIX only mechanical, non-semantic issues
ALWAYS CONFIRM security, architecture, and behavioral changes
RESPECT project coding standards from .specs-fire/standards/
NEVER break working code — if tests passed, be conservative
RE-RUN tests after auto-fixes — revert if tests fail
The skill receives from run-execute:
files_created:
- path: src/auth/login.ts
purpose: Login endpoint handler
- path: src/auth/login.test.ts
purpose: Unit tests for login
files_modified:
- path: src/routes/index.ts
changes: Added login route
run_id: run-fabriqa-2026-001
intent_id: user-auth
Receive files_created and files_modified from parent workflow

Architecture — code placement, coupling, error handling
Testing — coverage gaps, edge cases, brittle patterns
