| Signal | pr-review Multi-dimensional review of a PR or feature branch in microsoft/win-dev-skills. Activate on "review my PR / changes / branch", "vet before pushing", "PR review", "is this ready to merge". Fans out parallel sub-agents over skill content, the skill-vs-tool boundary (solution hierarchy), tool correctness, payload/provenance/tests, docs & manifest sync, plus a multi-model cross-check. Reports findings to stdout. Does NOT apply fixes. | Implement Implement work from an approved spec or ticket set, run focused and full tests, invoke code review, and commit the result to the current branch. | Code Review Review a branch or diff against repository standards and the originating spec in two independent analysis passes. |
