Code Review (Flutter/Dart)

A repeatable, checklist-driven review skill for Flutter/Dart PRs, MRs, branches, and diffs, ending in severity-tagged findings and a verdict.

What it does

Validates the branch first: confirms it's a feature/bugfix/PR branch, checks it's up to date with the target branch, identifies the merge target.
Discovers all changed/added/deleted files, follows commit titles and connected methods/files so the why of each change is understood rather than assumed.
Reviews every file against a matrix: location, naming, responsibility, readability, logic correctness, error handling, security, performance, SOLID, docs, tests, style — plus surrounding existing code.
Flutter-specific checks: unnecessary rebuilds (BlocBuilder → BlocSelector), Key on dynamic widgets, dispose() for controllers/streams, const constructors, untouched generated files (*.g.dart, *.freezed.dart).
Scans for code smells using the refactoring.guru taxonomy (Bloaters, OO Abusers, Change Preventers, Dispensables, Couplers).
Verifies test coverage deliberately: locates real test files, checks edge cases, and calls out tests that only assert mocked behavior.
Outputs Summary → Issues (suggestion/minor/major) → Questions → Verdict (Approved / Approved with suggestions / Changes requested).
Posts inline comments to GitHub/GitLab only with explicit opt-in; a PreToolUse hook (scripts/protect-token.sh) blocks Bash commands that would leak the review token.

Who it's for

Flutter/Dart teams that want consistent, non-flattering review quality
Tech leads who want AI to handle the first review pass
Teams on GitHub/GitLab who want inline MR comments automated

Examples

"Review the PR on this branch" → changed-file list, per-file issues with severity, final verdict.
"Audit this diff before merge" → red CI or missing tests for new logic flagged as blocking.
After reading the chat review: "Post these on the GitLab MR" → inline comments anchored to file/line using GITLAB_TOKEN.

Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/code-review folder from the GitHub repo evanca/flutter-ai-rules into my ~/.claude/skills/code-review/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/evanca/flutter-ai-rules.git /tmp/flutter-ai-rules && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/flutter-ai-rules/skills/code-review ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/evanca/flutter-ai-rules.git
Create the skills directory: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
Copy the skill: cp -r flutter-ai-rules/skills/code-review ~/.claude/skills/
Make the hook executable: chmod +x ~/.claude/skills/code-review/scripts/protect-token.sh
(Optional) For online posting, set a review-bot token: export GITHUB_TOKEN=... or export GITLAB_TOKEN=...
Open Claude Code in your Flutter project and ask it to "review this PR" — the skill triggers automatically.
