Review skill PRs with structured severity-rated feedback covering token budgets, routing conflicts, required sections, and repo conventions. WHEN: \"review skill\", \"review skill PR\", \"review skill changes\", \"check skill quality\", \"skill PR feedback\".

🧩 One of 7 skills in the microsoft/GitHub-Copilot-for-Azure package — works on its own, and pairs well with its siblings.

This is the playbook your agent receives when the skill activates — you don't need to read it to use the skill, but it's here to audit before installing.

Skill PR Reviewer

Performs thorough, structured code reviews of skill PRs — severity-classified findings with actionable fixes, positive acknowledgment, and a summary table.

When to Use

  • Reviewing a PR that adds or modifies a skill under plugins/{plugin}/skills/ or .github/skills/
  • Checking skill compliance before submitting a PR
  • Auditing an existing skill for quality issues

💡 Note: .github/skills/ meta-skills have different conventions — checklist sections 8-9 apply only to plugins/{plugin}/skills/ service skills.

Review Workflow

  1. Collect — Identify all changed skill files (SKILL.md, references, tests, scripts)
  2. Check — Run each category from the review checklist
  3. Classify — Assign severity per the severity guide
  4. Analyze Routing — Check triggers for conflicts per routing analysis
  5. Draft — Write the review per the output format
  6. Validate — Verify suggested fixes are actionable with accurate file/line references
