What is Receiving Code Review?
Helps agents evaluate code-review feedback technically before implementing it, verify suggestions against the codebase, and avoid blindly accepting incorrect or incomplete review comments.
What does Receiving Code Review do?
Receiving Code Review is a Superpowers skill for handling review feedback as technical input that must be understood and verified, not as instructions to accept automatically. It helps an AI coding agent evaluate whether a suggestion is correct for the codebase before changing implementation.
Who is Receiving Code Review best for?
- Developers using AI to process pull-request feedback
- Teams that want technical verification before applying reviewer suggestions
- Agents working with ambiguous or conflicting review comments
- Projects where maintaining existing behavior matters during refactoring
Common use cases
- Check whether a review comment actually applies to the current code
- Ask for clarification when feedback is ambiguous
- Test a proposed change before accepting it
- Reject technically incorrect feedback with evidence
How does Receiving Code Review work?
The workflow reads the review comment, checks it against the code and requirements, identifies uncertainty and then decides whether to implement, clarify or challenge the suggestion. It prioritizes technical correctness over performative agreement.
Key benefits
- Reduces blind acceptance of incorrect review suggestions
- Encourages evidence-based responses to feedback
- Helps preserve project-specific constraints
- Useful for AI agents that might otherwise over-comply with reviewer wording
Things to know
- The process still depends on the agent having enough project context
- Disagreement should be explained clearly rather than becoming adversarial
- Some review comments are preference or product decisions and may require a human owner

Requesting Code Review
Structures code-review requests around the actual implementation, requirements, and git diff so issues can be caught before they reach the main branch.
Finishing a Development Branch
Verifies completed development work and guides the final merge, pull-request, branch-cleanup, or integration decision only after tests have passed.
Using Git Worktrees
Creates or verifies an isolated Git worktree before feature implementation so agent work stays separated from the main workspace and can be developed safely in parallel.
Verification Before Completion
Requires fresh evidence before an agent claims work is fixed, passing, or complete, making it especially useful for validating AI-generated code before commits or pull requests.
