Code Review Skill

When reviewing code changes, follow this systematic approach to ensure quality and consistency.

Review Checklist

1. Correctness

  • Does the code do what it's supposed to do?
  • Are edge cases handled (null, empty, boundary values)?
  • Are error conditions properly caught and handled?
  • Is the logic correct and complete?

2. Type Safety

  • Are types properly defined (no any or unknown without justification)?
  • Are nullable values handled with proper checks?
  • Do function signatures match their implementations?

3. Architecture Compliance

Verify changes follow project patterns:

Layer Expected Pattern
Data Layer Pure DB queries, no business logic
Service Layer Business logic, caching, typed context (DbContext, AuthContext)
API Layer createServerFn() with middleware chains

4. Security

  • Are user inputs validated (Zod schemas)?
  • Is authentication/authorization properly enforced?
  • Are sensitive data properly protected?
  • No hardcoded secrets or credentials?

5. Performance

  • Are there obvious inefficiencies (N+1 queries, unnecessary re-renders)?
  • Is caching used appropriately?
  • Are background tasks delegated to waitUntil when appropriate?

6. Code Style

  • Follows naming conventions (camelCase, PascalCase, kebab-case files)?
  • Server Functions end with Fn suffix?
  • Proper use of semantic color variables for styling?

Review Process

Step 1: Understand Context

# View recent commits
git log -5 --oneline

# View staged changes
git diff --cached

# View unstaged changes
git diff

Step 2: Identify Changed Files

Categorize by type:

  • Backend (.service.ts, .api.ts, .data.ts)
  • Frontend (.tsx in routes/components)
  • Config (.config.ts, wrangler.jsonc)
  • Tests (.test.ts)

Step 3: Review Each Change

For each file, check:

  1. What changed? (additions, deletions, modifications)
  2. Why? (bug fix, feature, refactor)
  3. Is it correct? (logic, types, patterns)
  4. Any concerns? (breaking changes, missing tests)

Step 4: Validate

# Type check
bun tsc --noEmit

# Lint and format
bun check

# Run tests if applicable
bun run test

Providing Feedback

Format

Structure feedback as:

## Summary
Brief overview of changes and overall assessment.

## Issues Found
- 🔴 **Critical**: Must fix before merge
- 🟡 **Warning**: Should fix, but not blocking
- 🔵 **Suggestion**: Nice to have improvements

## Specific Comments
File-by-file or section-by-section feedback with code references.

## Questions
Any clarifications needed from the author.

Tone Guidelines

  • Be specific about what needs to change
  • Explain why, not just what
  • Suggest alternatives when possible
  • Acknowledge good patterns and improvements
  • Use questions for subjective preferences

Common Issues to Watch For

Backend

Issue Example Fix
Wrong context type context: any Use DbContext, AuthContext, etc.
Missing cache invalidation Update without bumpVersion() Add cache invalidation
Workflow not triggered Direct DB update on publish Call workflow via binding

Frontend

Issue Example Fix
Missing loading state No pendingComponent Add skeleton component
Stale query data Missing queryKey invalidation Call queryClient.invalidateQueries()
Hardcoded colors text-gray-500 Use text-muted-foreground

Tests

Issue Example Fix
Missing await await seedUser() not awaited Add await
No background task wait Assert immediately after async op Use waitForBackgroundTasks()
Using any as any cast Update test-utils or use proper types
