Code Review Gate

Capabilities

Performs architect-level code review enforcing four core principles: DRY (no unnecessary duplication), YAGNI (no speculative features), proper abstraction (correct encapsulation), and test coverage (adequate automated tests). Provides numeric quality scores and specific file:line feedback.

Tool Use Instructions

  • Use Read to examine code changes and test files
  • Use Grep to search for duplication patterns and anti-patterns
  • Use Glob to verify test file coverage
  • Use Bash to run lint, test, and coverage commands
  • Use Write to generate review reports

Process Integration

  • Used in
    maestro-orchestrator.js
    Phase 4 (Architect Code Review)
  • Used in
    maestro-development.js
