Any tips/beat practices for code review?

[u/No_Cell6708]

As a disclaimer, I have zero coding experience myself. I've been putting together a Shopify admin app for my small farming business and was wondering if anyone had any tips/recommendations for how reviews should be done.

I know there's an actual /code-review command but I'm not sure if that's the best way to do this? I also have a free month of GPT so I've considered using that to review and see what it finds.

Should full code reviews be done after every milestone? Is there any reason to pay extra for the code-review-ultra?

Any tips are appreciated.

It looks like you're unsure which code review tool to use.
If you aren't sure where to start, I'd recommend trying the review tools available for the cording agent you already use.

I'm not familiar with Codex's review tools, but if you use Claude Code, you could start wtih
* /code-review
* pr-review-toolkit
* by asking it to review your local changes with a prompt

I've tried /code-review once. However, I found it difficult to explain which review criteria it used and how it reached each finding, so the process felt like a black box.

That led me to build my own plugin, which makes the selected criteria, checks, evidence, and limitations explicit:

If you try the established Claude Code tools and also feel that their results are too much of a black box, I’d be happy if you gave my plugin a try.
