Codex Autoreview

Use this skill when the user asks for autoreview, Codex review, PR closeout review, or a rigorous review before commit, push, PR, or merge.

Contract

This is code review, not approval routing. Review output is advisory until verified against the real files.

Before reviewing, freeze:

• original request or issue;
• base branch or PR base;
• intended behavior and owner boundary;
• changed files and non-test scope;
• validator commands already run;
• privacy and hardware actions explicitly out of scope.

Classify findings as:

• in-scope blocker: introduced by this branch, concrete, and fixable without changing the PR purpose;
• follow-up: real but outside this branch's owner boundary;
• stop-and-escalate: requires a new public contract, private adapter decision, credentials, hardware dispatch, app launch, screenshots, physical-device automation, or release-process change.

Fix only in-scope blockers. After any fix, rerun focused validators and repeat review only if the reviewed diff materially changed.

Apple Agent Kit Checks

For public repo changes, confirm:

• python3 scripts/validate-release.py passes;
• git diff --check passes;
• no private runner labels, hostnames, local paths, device IDs, bundle IDs, signing teams, screenshots, secrets, raw logs, private command lines, or repo-specific adapter details appear in public files;
• schemas, examples, docs, and validators agree;
• public workflows do not run private hardware/app automation.

For private adapter changes, do not run hardware actions unless the user explicitly approved that specific dispatch. Planning and static review are allowed; install, app launch, UI smoke, screenshots, product build/test, physical-device automation, and Codex-session bridge execution are gated.

Output

Lead with findings, ordered by severity, using file and line references. Then list validators run and end with one verdict:

• ready
• needs-fix
• blocked

If there are no issues, say so clearly and mention any residual risk or unavailable proof.
