Documentation

README

Excerpt

self-review — review your own work before the PR

Review the full branch diff, not just the last commit. Do not rubber-stamp your own work because you wrote it.

Announce at start: "Using the self-review skill — reviewing the branch diff against main."

Step 1: Get the diff

Open PR exists → gh pr view + gh pr diff.
No PR → git diff $(git merge-base origin/main HEAD)...HEAD (plus --name-only for the file list).
Already know the PR from this session → don't re-prove it; just get the diff.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
