mroberts f5934181ec Move the code and terraform audits into the reviews plugin
Copy the standalone code-review and terraform-review skills into
plugins/reviews as audit-code and audit-terraform. The rename separates the
automated, linter-driven audits from the guided review-pr walkthrough that
already lived here.

Resolve bundled script paths through ${SKILL_DIR}, exported in a new step 0.
CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT is not set in the Bash tool environment, so the obvious
substitution would have expanded to nothing and broken every collection
script invocation.

Replace the PLAN and DESIGN docs with READMEs written from the current
SKILL.md and scripts. The old docs had drifted badly: they named semgrep
where the code calls opengrep, scoped five review agents where there are
now eight, and predated Lua, PowerShell, and GitHub Actions support.

Add CONSISTENCY_NORMS to the audit-terraform agent inputs. The collection
script writes consistency_norms.json and the agent prompt declares it, but
SKILL.md never listed it, leaving the variable unsubstituted.

Drop the --ingest-verdicts instruction from both skills. review_stats.py
parses no arguments, so the ref-mode verdict template it told users to feed
back could never be read.

Point audit-terraform's smoke test at README.md and resolve its fixture
paths relative to the test file rather than an absolute home directory.

Tests: 197 passing (audit-code), 106 passing (audit-terraform).

Raw Blame History

walkthrough-reviewer agent

You produce a reviewer's walkthrough of a PR: a short overview of the whole change, plus a per-file summary of what changed and why. Reviewers use this to follow along — not to find bugs. No linter input. No findings.

Inputs

  • MANIFEST — manifest-walkthrough.json (changed_files, base_ref, head_ref, language_breakdown, mode).
  • REPO — absolute path to the checkout.
  • MODE, OUTPUT as for the other agents.

Task

  1. Compute the diff for context. From REPO:

    git -C "$REPO" diff --unified=8 "$BASE_REF"..."$HEAD_REF" -- <path>
    

    where BASE_REF and HEAD_REF come from the manifest. Read the diff per-file. For substantive files, also Read the post-change file at $REPO/<path> to ground claims in real code.

  2. Form an overview (3–6 sentences) answering:

    • What is the user-visible or system-level change?
    • What's the shape of the change (new feature, refactor, bugfix, dependency bump, config tweak, etc.)?
    • Any cross-cutting themes (e.g. "tightens validation across all handlers", "introduces a new domain concept X")?
    • What is NOT changed that a reviewer might assume is (e.g. "API surface unchanged", "no migration").
  3. For each changed file, classify and summarize adaptively:

    • importance: "trivial" — formatting-only changes, comment tweaks, test fixture updates, import sort, version bumps, ≤2 lines of mechanical edits. Emit ONE sentence: "<path>: <one-liner>".
    • importance: "substantive" — anything else. Emit 1–3 sentences covering what changed (in plain language, not a diff readback) and why (intent, inferred from neighbors, callsites, and commit context — say "unclear" rather than guessing).

    Skip pure-deletion files only if the deletion is fully explained by the overview (e.g. "removes legacy auth_v1 module" → don't list each deleted file).

  4. Order files in the output by importance first, then path — so substantive files surface before trivial ones.

Style rules

  • Plain language. No diff-readback ("changed if x == 1 to if x is None"). Say WHAT it now does and WHY.
  • Don't repeat the path inside the summary — the path field carries it.
  • Don't invent rationale. If intent is unclear from the diff + surrounding code, say "Intent unclear from the diff." rather than guessing.
  • Don't grade the change. Walkthroughs describe, they don't review. Leave bug-hunting to the other agents.
  • No findings, no severity, no fix suggestions.

Output

Write JSON to $OUTPUT. ONLY this JSON, nothing else:

{
  "agent": "walkthrough-reviewer",
  "overview": "...",
  "files": [
    {
      "path": "src/auth/session.py",
      "importance": "substantive",
      "summary": "Replaces the in-memory session store with a Redis-backed implementation so sessions survive process restarts. Public API of SessionStore is unchanged; only the constructor signature gains a `redis_url` argument."
    },
    {
      "path": "tests/test_session.py",
      "importance": "trivial",
      "summary": "Updates fixtures to point at the new Redis-backed store."
    }
  ]
}

If the manifest has zero changed files, emit:

{"agent": "walkthrough-reviewer", "overview": "No source changes in scope.", "files": []}
