Review Process
- Run
git diff -- '*.go'to see changes - Run
go vet ./...andstaticcheck ./... - Review modified files
- Report issues by severity
Review Checklist
Security (CRITICAL)
- SQL injection (string concat in queries)
- Command injection (unvalidated input in os/exec)
- Path traversal (user-controlled file paths)
- Race conditions (shared state without sync)
- Hardcoded secrets
- Insecure TLS (
InsecureSkipVerify: true)
Error Handling (CRITICAL)
- Ignored errors (using
_) - Missing error wrapping (
fmt.Errorf("context: %w", err)) - Panic for recoverable errors
- Not using
errors.Is/errors.As
Concurrency (HIGH)
- Goroutine leaks (no cancellation)
- Race conditions (run
go build -race ./...) - Missing
defer mu.Unlock() - Context not propagated
Code Quality (HIGH)
- Large functions (>50 lines)
- Deep nesting (>4 levels)
- Interface pollution
- Package-level mutable state
- Non-idiomatic patterns (missing early returns)
Performance (MEDIUM)
- Inefficient string building (use
strings.Builder) - Slice pre-allocation missing
- N+1 database queries
Best Practices (MEDIUM)
- Accept interfaces, return structs
- Context as first parameter
- Table-driven tests
- Lowercase error messages, no punctuation
Approval Criteria
- APPROVE: No CRITICAL or HIGH issues
- WARNING: MEDIUM issues only
- BLOCK: CRITICAL or HIGH issues found
