Run /code-review before you push: levels, --fix and two gotchas

Wed, 07 Oct 2026 07:01:00 +0000

The cheapest code review you’ll get today is the one you run before opening the pull request. Claude Code’s /code-review command reviews your branch in the terminal, and the managed PR review service isn’t required: Anthropic’s docs say it’s the route for plans without Team or Enterprise.

Build a Claude Code subagent that reviews your diff with fresh eyes

Sun, 04 Oct 2026 17:00:00 +0000

An agent that just wrote a change is a poor reviewer of it. It remembers why each decision was made, so it reads its own code charitably. A reviewer that starts with nothing but the diff and a checklist has no such bias. Claude Code subagents are a convenient way to get one.

Let the agent interview you, then write the spec, then start fresh

Big features fail in a predictable way when you hand them to an agent in one prompt. The agent fills every gap in your description with a guess, builds confidently on the guesses, and you find out about the wrong ones at review. A better move is to make it ask first.

You can now ask Copilot for a code review from a script

Fri, 02 Oct 2026 17:00:00 +0000

GitHub says you can now request a Copilot code review through its REST and GraphQL APIs, and set the review effort on each request. The change landed in a changelog entry on October 2 , and it’s available on Copilot Pro, Pro+, Max, Business and Enterprise.

Stop telling your AI agent to 'fix the bug'. Make it reproduce it first

“Fix the login bug” is a terrible prompt for a coding agent, and a frustrating one to debug when it goes wrong. The agent will read some code, find something plausible, change it, and tell you it’s fixed. Sometimes it is. Sometimes it has patched a bug you didn’t have.

Make Claude Code run your tests before it's allowed to say it's done

Wed, 30 Sep 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Telling Claude Code to run the tests in CLAUDE.md is a request. It usually works, and sometimes it doesn’t. If you want it to work every time, Claude Code has a mechanism for that: a Stop hook, a script that runs when Claude thinks it’s finished and can refuse to let it stop.
