+# Code Review Skill
+
+## Overview
+Perform thorough, constructive code reviews focusing on security, code quality, testing, and standard architecture practices.
+
+## Guidelines
+
+### 1. Security & Authentication
+- Verify that endpoints requiring authentication use appropriate guards/middleware.
+- Ensure sensitive configurations load via environment variables rather than hardcoded strings.
+- Validate incoming payload schemas to prevent injection vulnerabilities.
+
+### 2. Code Quality & Architecture
+- Ensure type annotations are fully defined across function signatures.
+- Keep controller/handler logic thin by delegating business logic to service layers.
+- Check for redundant logic or missed modularization opportunities.
+
+### 3. Testing
+- Confirm new features or bug fixes include corresponding unit or integration tests.
+- Verify test suites pass without regressions.
+
+## Review Output Format
+Structure review feedback as follows:
+- **Summary**: Concise high-level overview.
+- **Critical/Blocking**: Security risks, bugs, or breaking changes.
+- **Suggestions**: Non-blocking improvements or refactoring advice.
+- **Positives**: Notable well-implemented design decisions.
