Trigger on PR review, bug finding, code review, "review this PR", "check for bugs", "find issues in this PR". This is a multi-pass review workflow with 5 parallel passes, majority voting, independent Opus validation, and resolution rate tracking.

Bug Review v2

Multi-pass PR review agent with 5 parallel review passes, majority voting, independent Opus validation, and resolution rate learning. Posts inline PR comments and optionally generates autofix commits. Tracks whether findings get resolved at merge time and uses that signal to improve future reviews.

When to Apply

• User asks to review a pull request for bugs or correctness issues
• User runs /bug-review <PR-number-or-URL>
• User runs /bug-review:resolve <PR> to classify resolutions after merge
• User runs /bug-review:report for resolution rate statistics
• User asks for code review focused on logic errors, edge cases, or security
• User wants to find bugs in a diff or set of changes

Setup

On first run, verify:

• gh CLI is installed and authenticated (gh auth status)
• Current directory is a git repo with a GitHub remote
• jq is installed (for JSON processing)
• bc is installed (for resolution rate calculations; pre-installed on most systems)

Read config.json for configuration (passes, vote threshold, models, category weights).

Workflow Overview

/bug-review <PR>
  |
  v
Fetch PR context + gather-context.sh
  |
  v
5 parallel passes (shuffled diffs, Sonnet) --> Aggregate & vote (3/5 majority)
  |
  v
Independent Opus validator --> Dedup --> Present findings --> Post + store
  |
  (later, after merge)
  v
/bug-review:resolve <PR> --> Classify resolutions --> Update category weights

Command: /bug-review

Step 1: Parse Input & Fetch Context

1. Parse the PR identifier (number, URL, or branch name)
2. Check cache: Look for ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/bug-review/cache/pr-{N}/ — if cache exists for the same head commit, offer to resume from the last checkpoint
3. Run scripts/fetch-pr.sh <pr-identifier> to get PR diff + metadata as JSON
4. Save the diff to a temp file for shuffling
5. Run scripts/gather-context.sh <changed-files-json> to get prioritized context (callers, types, tests, repo rules)
6. Read .bug-review.md from repo root if it exists
7. Save checkpoint: Write context to ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/bug-review/cache/pr-{N}/context.json

Step 2: Run 5 Parallel Review Passes

For each pass (1-5), prepare a shuffled diff:

scripts/shuffle-diff.sh <pass-number> < pr.diff > pass-<N>.diff

Launch 5 Agent subprocesses in parallel. Read review-passes.md for the exact prompt for each pass.

• Pass 1: Logic & Edge Cases (seed 1)
• Pass 2: Security & Data Integrity (seed 2)
• Pass 3: Error Handling & API Contracts (seed 3)
• Pass 4: Concurrency & State (seed 4)
• Pass 5: Data Flow & Contracts (seed 5)

Use model from config.json agent_model (default: "sonnet").

Each agent returns a JSON array of findings.

Save checkpoint: Write all pass results to ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/bug-review/cache/pr-{N}/pass-results.json

Step 3: Aggregate & Vote

1. Collect findings from all 5 passes
2. Group findings by similarity: same file + line within +/-5 + same or related category
3. Count votes per group
4. Keep only findings with 3+ votes (majority of 5, configurable via vote_threshold)
5. Apply category weights from config.json: final_score = votes × severity_weight × category_weight
6. Categories with weight < 0.1 are suppressed entirely
7. Rank by final_score descending

If only 1-2 passes found bugs and the others found none, present findings but note they lack consensus.

Save checkpoint: Write voted findings to cache.

Step 4: Independent Validation (Opus)

Launch a separate Agent using validator_model from config.json (default: "opus").

This agent has NOT seen the review passes. It receives only the voted findings and the original code. Read the Validator section in review-passes.md for the prompt.

For each finding, the validator outputs: {id, verdict: "KEEP"|"DISCARD", confidence, reasoning}

Remove DISCARDed findings. Multiply each finding's score by the validator's confidence.

Compute each finding's final confidence field:

confidence = (votes / total_passes) × validator_confidence

Findings with confidence < 0.5 are shown with a "low confidence" warning.

Save checkpoint: Write validated findings to cache.

Step 5: Dedup Against Prior Reviews

Run scripts/dedup.sh <pr-number> to get existing [bug-review] comments. Match by location proximity (file + line within +/-10) and category — not text similarity.

Step 6: Present Findings to User

Display a table:

#	Severity	Confidence	File	Line	Title	Votes

For each finding, show full description, trigger scenario, suggested fix, and validator reasoning.

Ask the user (using AskUserQuestion with multiSelect):

• Which findings to post as PR comments (default: all)
• Which findings to autofix (default: none)

If no findings survived voting + validation: "No bugs found across 5 review passes. The changes look clean."

Step 7a: Post PR Review

Write approved findings to a temporary JSON file, then run:

scripts/post-review.sh <pr-number> <findings-json-file>

Then persist findings for resolution tracking:

scripts/store-findings.sh <pr-number> <findings-json-file> <head-commit-sha>

Step 7b: Autofix (User-Selected Findings)

For each finding selected for autofix:

1. Read the file and understand surrounding context
2. Generate a minimal fix (smallest possible change)
3. Apply the fix using the Edit tool
4. Scope check: Run git diff --stat — verify only the finding's file was modified and diff is under 20 lines. If exceeded, revert and warn.
5. Run existing tests if available (npm test, go test ./..., pytest, etc.)
6. If tests pass: commit with fix: {title} [bug-review]
7. If tests fail: revert the fix (git checkout -- <file>) and report to user
8. After all fixes: push to the PR branch

Safety: one commit per fix, run tests between fixes, never force-push, scope-validate every fix.

Command: /bug-review:resolve

Run after a PR is merged to classify whether findings were resolved.

1. Run scripts/classify-resolutions.sh <pr-number>
   • Loads stored findings from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/bug-review/findings/pr-{N}.json
   • Checks if PR is merged
   • For each finding: diffs code between review commit and merge commit
   • Classifies each as RESOLVED, UNRESOLVED, or INCONCLUSIVE
   • Updates the stored findings file with resolution data
2. Display resolution summary to user
3. If enough data accumulated (10+ findings, 3+ PRs): run scripts/update-weights.sh to adjust category weights

Command: /bug-review:report

Display resolution rate statistics across all tracked PRs.

Run scripts/resolution-report.sh which outputs:

• Overall resolution rate
• Resolution rate by severity
• Resolution rate by category (sorted worst-first to highlight noisy categories)
• Suppressed categories (weight < 0.1)

Repo-Specific Rules (.bug-review.md)

Teams can create .bug-review.md at their repo root:

## Focus Areas
- Pay special attention to authentication flows
- Check all database queries for SQL injection

## Ignore
- Don't flag issues in generated files (*.generated.ts)
- Ignore style-only concerns

## Invariants
- All API endpoints must check req.user before accessing user data
- Database migrations must be reversible

## Severity Overrides
- Treat any auth bypass as CRITICAL regardless of category default

How to Use

Read workflow.md for detailed step-by-step with error handling. Read review-passes.md for all 5 review pass prompts and the validator. Read categories.md for bug categories and learned weights.
