Code Reviewing
A skill that reviews code against quality, security, performance, and maintainability checklists and returns a severity-ranked report.
Security & ReviewBeginner★ 1,122⑂ 397AI score 7/10Last updated: Jul 23, 2026
What it does
- Walks a four-part checklist: code quality, security, performance, maintainability.
- Scans for common security issues such as hardcoded secrets, SQL injection, XSS, and missing auth checks.
- Produces a fixed Markdown report: summary → issues (Critical/Major/Minor with line numbers) → strengths → prioritized recommendations → verdict.
- Limited to Read, Grep, and Glob, so it reviews read-only and never edits your files.
Who it's for
- Developers on small teams who review their own pull requests
- Tech leads who want consistent review comment structure across the team
- Juniors building a pre-commit self-review habit
Examples
- "Review the files changed on this branch" → severity-grouped issue list plus a verdict.
- "Check src/auth/login.ts from a security angle" → focuses on secrets, input validation, and authorization.
- "Is this function well written?" → feedback on naming, duplication, and single responsibility with concrete fixes.

Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the 04-Skills/projects/00-basic-skill/.claude/skills/code-reviewing folder from the GitHub repo huangjia2019/claude-code-engineering into my ~/.claude/skills/code-reviewing/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/huangjia2019/claude-code-engineering.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r claude-code-engineering/04-Skills/projects/00-basic-skill/.claude/skills/code-reviewing ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/huangjia2019/claude-code-engineering.git - Create the skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the skill:
cp -r claude-code-engineering/04-Skills/projects/00-basic-skill/.claude/skills/code-reviewing ~/.claude/skills/ - Restart Claude Code and ask "review my code" — the skill activates automatically.
- For project-only use, copy it into that project's
.claude/skillsdirectory instead.
