goudantest

Advanced code review assistant with intelligent analysis, multi-language support, and structured feedback. Performs comprehensive reviews covering correctness, security, performance, maintainability, and observability. Use when reviewing pull requests, code changes, conducting security audits, performance reviews, or when the user requests detailed code analysis. Supports Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Go, Rust, C#, Ruby, PHP.

Code Review v2

Intelligent Review Workflow

Phase 1: Context Analysis

Before reviewing code, understand the context:

1. Identify change scope: What files/modules are affected?
2. Understand intent: Read PR description, linked issues, commit messages
3. Assess risk level: -🔴High**: Core logic, auth, payment, data handling, public APIs -Medium**: Business logic, internal APIs, utilities -Low**: Tests, docs, config, minor refactoring
4. Determine review depth based on risk level

Phase 2: Automated Analysis

Run these checks mentally before manual review:

text

□ Static analysis patterns (type mismatches, unused imports, dead code)
□ Security patterns (injection, unsafe deserialization, hardcoded secrets)
□ Performance patterns (N+1 queries, unbounded loops, missing indexes)
□ Concurrency patterns (race conditions, deadlocks, missing synchronization)

Phase 3: Manual Review

Follow the CHECKLIST.md for systematic review.

Phase 4: Feedback Generation

Use templates from TEMPLATES.md for structured feedback.

Quick Reference: Review Dimensions

Dimension	Focus Area	Key Questions
Correctness	Logic, edge cases	Does it work correctly in all scenarios?
Security	Vulnerabilities, data protection	Are there security risks or data leaks?
Performance	Efficiency, resource usage	Will this scale? Any bottlenecks?
Maintainability	Readability, structure	Can others understand and modify this?
Observability	Logging, monitoring, debugging	Can we detect and diagnose issues?
Testing	Coverage, quality	Are changes adequately tested?

Severity Classification

Level	Icon	When to Use	Response Required
Blocker	Security vulnerability, data loss, crash	Must fix before merge
Critical	🔴 Bug, incorrect logic, broken functionality	Must fix before merge
Warning	Code smell, suboptimal pattern, minor issue	Should address
Suggestion	💡 Improvement opportunity, alternative approach	Consider
Info	ℹ	Observation, documentation note	Optional

Common Anti-Patterns to Flag

Security

• Hardcoded credentials or API keys
• SQL/NoSQL injection via string interpolation
• XSS via unescaped output
• Insecure deserialization
• Missing rate limiting on public endpoints
• Overly permissive CORS configuration

Performance

• N+1 query patterns
• Unbounded result sets (missing LIMIT)
• Synchronous operations in hot paths
• Missing caching for expensive computations
• Inefficient data structures (O(n²) where O(n log n) possible)
• Memory leaks (unclosed resources, growing caches)

Maintainability

• God classes or functions over 50 lines
• Deep nesting (3+ levels)
• Magic numbers without constants
• Duplicated logic across files
• Tight coupling between modules
• Missing or outdated documentation

Concurrency

• Race conditions on shared state
• Missing synchronization primitives
• Deadlock potential (lock ordering)
• Thread-unsafe collections
• Improper async/await usage
