Unified Review Orchestration

Quick Start

# Auto-detect and run appropriate reviews
/full-review

# Focus on specific areas
/full-review api          # API surface review
/full-review architecture # Architecture review
/full-review bugs         # Bug hunting
/full-review tests        # Test suite review
/full-review all          # Run all applicable skills

pytest -v

When To Use

• Starting a full code review
• Reviewing changes across multiple domains
• Need intelligent selection of review skills
• Want integrated reporting from multiple review types
• Before merging major feature branches

When NOT To Use

• Specific review type known
  • use bug-review
• Test-review
• Architecture-only focus - use architecture-review
• Specific review type known
  • use bug-review

Review Skill Selection Matrix

test_*.py

*_test.go

Workflow

1. Analyze Repository Context

• Detect primary languages from extensions and manifests
• Analyze git status and diffs for change scope
• Identify project structure (monorepo, microservices, library)
• Detect build systems, testing frameworks, documentation

2. Select Review Skills

# Detection logic
if has_rust_files():
    schedule_skill("rust-review")
if has_api_changes():
    schedule_skill("api-review")
if has_test_files():
    schedule_skill("test-review")
if has_makefiles():
    schedule_skill("makefile-review")
if has_math_code():
    schedule_skill("math-review")
if has_architecture_changes():
    schedule_skill("architecture-review")
# Default
schedule_skill("bug-review")

pytest -v

3. Execute Reviews

• Run selected skills concurrently
• Share context between reviews
• Maintain consistent evidence logging
• Track progress via TodoWrite

4. Integrate Findings

• Consolidate findings across domains
• Identify cross-domain patterns
• Prioritize by impact and effort
• Generate unified action plan

Review Modes

Auto-Detect (default)

Focused Mode

• /full-review api

  → api-review only

• /full-review architecture

  → architecture-review only

• /full-review bugs

  → bug-review only

• /full-review tests

  → test-review only

Full Review Mode

• /full-review all

  → Execute all detected skills

Quality Gates

1. Establish proper context
2. Execute all selected skills successfully
3. Document findings with evidence
4. Prioritize recommendations by impact
5. Create action plan with owners

Deliverables

Executive Summary

• Overall codebase health assessment
• Critical issues requiring immediate attention
• Review frequency recommendations

Domain-Specific Reports

• API surface analysis and consistency
• Architecture alignment with ADRs
• Test coverage gaps and improvements
• Bug analysis and security findings
• Performance and maintainability recommendations

Integrated Action Plan

• Prioritized remediation tasks
• Cross-domain dependencies
• Assigned owners and target dates
• Follow-up review schedule

Modular Architecture

• pensive:shared

  : Common workflow, output templates, quality checklists
• Each skill has

  modules/

  : Domain-specific details loaded on demand
• Cross-plugin deps:

  imbue:evidence-logging

  ,

  imbue:diff-analysis/modules/risk-assessment-framework

Exit Criteria

• All selected review skills executed
• Findings consolidated and prioritized
• Action plan created with ownership
• Evidence logged per structured output format

Supporting Modules

• Review workflow core - standard 5-step workflow pattern for all pensive reviews
• Output format templates - finding entry, severity, action item templates
• Quality checklist patterns - pre-review, analysis, evidence, deliverable checklists
