Local Review

Perform a comprehensive self-review of changes before creating a pull request.

Instructions

1. Gather Context

   • Get current branch name
   • Find associated workflow folder
   • Read the original issue/concept and plan

2. Get Changes

   • Run git diff main...HEAD to see all changes
   • Run git log main...HEAD --oneline to see commits
   • List all modified files

3. Review Against Guidelines

   CODING_GUIDELINES.md Checklist

   Architecture

   • Three-layer command pattern followed (Cobra → Wrapper → Execute)
   • Config loaded once and passed through
   • Using internal/git/ wrappers, not direct git calls
   • Custom error types from internal/errors

   Code Style

   • Imports organized: stdlib, third-party, local
   • Naming conventions followed
   • Exported functions documented
   • No ignored errors

   Configuration Precedence

   • Three-layer hierarchy: defaults → git config → flags
   • Pointer types for optional booleans
   • Flags always win

   Anti-Engineering

   • No unnecessary abstractions
   • No premature optimization
   • Changes focused on the task

   TESTING_GUIDELINES.md Checklist

   Test Structure

   • One test case per function (no table-driven for integration)
   • Descriptive test names
   • Test comments with Steps section

   Test Implementation

   • Using testutil helpers
   • Proper setup/cleanup
   • Testing success and error paths

   Working Directory

   • Using cmd.Dir, not os.Chdir() where possible
   • If os.Chdir() used, proper save/restore

   COMMIT_GUIDELINES.md Checklist

   • Commit messages follow format
   • Subject line ≤50 characters
   • Type matches change (feat/fix/refactor/test/docs)
   • Issue referenced in footer
   • No AI attribution lines

   Documentation Checklist

   • Manpage updated if command/options changed
   • Config documentation updated if config changed
   • Help text updated

4. Code Quality Checks

   Copy# Build check
   go build ./...
   
   # Test check
   go test ./...
   
   # Format check
   go fmt ./...
   
   # Vet check
   go vet ./...
