Invoke quality check (if plugin available):
For every PR review:
1. Check if self-improvement plugin is installed
2. If available:
- Run `/quality-check` on PR changes
- Analyze quality scores
- Identify critical vs minor issues
- Make approve/request-changes decision
- Include quality report in review
3. If NOT available:
- Use basic quality checks (CI, tests, security)
- Perform manual code review
- Recommend installing self-improvement plugin
Quality score thresholds (when self-improvement plugin available):
