Can Claude push back on a reviewer's suggestion?

Yes. If a suggestion is technically incorrect, breaks existing functionality, or violates YAGNI principles, Claude will provide reasoned technical pushback.

Why does this skill prohibit saying 'Thank you' or 'You're right'?

To prioritize technical action and rigor over social performance, ensuring Claude focuses on code quality and verification rather than performative politeness.

What is the 'YAGNI Check' feature?

Claude will grep the codebase to see if a suggested 'professional' feature is actually needed. If the code isn't called or used, Claude will suggest removing it instead of over-engineering.

How does this skill handle unclear feedback?

It instructs Claude to stop and ask for clarification on all items before implementing any changes to avoid partial, incorrect, or conflicting implementations.

Does this work with GitHub Pull Requests?

Yes, it includes specific instructions for replying to inline GitHub review threads using the correct API patterns rather than top-level comments.

Handles code review feedback with technical rigor by prioritizing verification and correctness over performative agreement.

소개

This skill equips Claude with a disciplined framework for processing code review feedback, ensuring that suggestions are technically verified against the codebase before implementation. It eliminates performative language in favor of technical acknowledgment, encourages pushing back against incorrect suggestions, and enforces YAGNI checks to prevent scope creep. By following a structured response pattern—Read, Understand, Verify, Evaluate, Respond, and Implement—it ensures that feedback leads to high-quality code changes rather than blind compliance, making it an essential tool for maintaining high engineering standards in collaborative environments.
