# Review PR

Review PR performs a comprehensive code review of a pull request or branch diff using a knowledge graph for structural context and blast-radius impact analysis. Use it to assess risk, check test coverage, and produce a structured file-by-file review.

**Install:**

```bash
npx degit https://github.com/tirth8205/code-review-graph/tree/main/skills/review-pr ~/.claude/skills/review-pr
```

## README

# Review PR

Perform a comprehensive code review of a pull request or branch diff using the knowledge graph.

**Token optimization:** Before starting, call `get_docs_section_tool(section_name="review-pr")` for the optimized workflow. Never include full files unless explicitly asked.

## Steps

1. **Identify the changes** for the PR:
   - If a PR number or branch is provided, use `git diff main...<branch>` to get changed files
   - Otherwise auto-detect from the current branch vs main/master

2. **Update the graph** by calling `build_or_update_graph_tool(base="main")` to ensure the graph reflects the current state.

3. **Get the full review context** by calling `get_review_context_tool(base="main")`:
   - This uses `main` (or the specified base branch) as the diff base
   - Returns all changed files across all commits in the PR

4. **Analyze impact** by calling `get_impact_radius_tool(base="main")`:
   - Review the blast radius across the entire PR
   - Identify high-risk areas (widely depended-upon code)

5. **Deep-dive each changed file**:
   - Read the full source of files with significant changes
   - Use `query_graph_tool(pattern="callers_of", target=<func>)` for high-risk functions
   - Use `query_graph_tool(pattern="tests_for", target=<func>)` to verify test coverage
   - Check for breaking changes in public APIs

6. **Generate structured review output**:

   ```
   ## PR Review: <title>

   ### Summary
   <1-3 sentence overview>

   ### Risk Assessment
   - **Overall risk**: Low / Medium / High
   - **Blast radius**: X files, Y functions impacted
   - **Test coverage**: N changed functions covered / M total

   ### File-by-File Review
   #### <file_path>
   - Changes: <description>
   - Impact: <who depends on this>
   - Issues: <bugs, style, concerns>

   ### Missing Tests
   - <function_name> in <file> - no test coverage found

   ### Recommendations
   1. <actionable suggestion>
   2. <actionable suggestion>
   ```

## Tips

- For large PRs, focus on the highest-impact files first (most dependents)
- Use `semantic_search_nodes_tool` to find related code the PR might have missed
- Check if renamed/moved functions have updated all callers
